There were only ever two major Infiniband vendors: QLogic and Mellanox. Intel already bought QLogic back in 2012.

I'm not sure it would be in anyone's interest for both to be acquired by Intel, even if IB isn't very relevant anymore outside of supercomputing.

Intel bought QLogic's Infiniband assets in 2012, not everything.

Cavium bought QLogic in 2016, Marvell in turn bought Cavium in 2018.
