This guide describes how to serve the Qwen3.8 MoE and Qwen3.5 MoE hybrid models with the TensorRT LLM PyTorch backend. It covers the following checkpoints:

* **Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B MoE FP8** — 2.4 trillion total parameters and 95 billion active parameters per token.
* **Qwen3.8-27B dense NVFP4** — 27 billion parameters with mixed NVFP4 and FP8 quantization.
* **Qwen3.5-397B-A17B MoE NVFP4** — 397 billion total parameters and 17 billion active parameters per token.

The models share the `qwen3_5_moe_text` decoder architecture and use the same TensorRT LLM implementation, registered as `Qwen3_5MoeForCausalLM`. Both interleave three gated-delta-network (GDN) linear-attention layers with one grouped-query-attention (GQA) layer, and both use 512 routed experts with top-10 routing.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Scope the MoE description to the MoE checkpoints.

The paragraph says that all listed models use the qwen3_5_moe_text decoder and have 512 routed experts with top-10 routing. That is false for Qwen3.8-27B dense, which uses Qwen3_5ForCausalLM and has no experts. This can direct users to incompatible MoE deployment settings.

Update the surrounding introduction so that the shared architecture statement applies only to the two MoE checkpoints. Also update the opening sentence to include the dense checkpoint.

Proposed wording

The dense configuration test verifies that num_experts is absent or zero.

around lines 8 - 11, Update the introduction to explicitly include the
Qwen3.8-27B dense checkpoint, and scope the shared qwen3_5_moe_text
architecture, Qwen3_5MoeForCausalLM implementation, GDN/GQA layout, and
512-expert top-10 routing description to the two MoE checkpoints only. Ensure
the dense configuration is described with its
Qwen3_5ForConditionalGeneration/Qwen3_5ForCausalLM components and no experts,
consistent with num_experts being absent or zero.


Sharing an implementation does not make their deployment configurations interchangeable. Qwen3.8 MoE is substantially larger, uses an FP8 checkpoint, and is text-only. The NVIDIA Qwen3.5 MoE NVFP4 checkpoint uses a multimodal wrapper around the shared text decoder. Parallelism, quantization backends, cache sizing, and expert placement must be selected for the exact checkpoint.

Register the added regression tests in the standard test lists.

The new QwenImageBench mapper test and the Qwen3.5/Qwen3.8 configuration tests are not listed in the corresponding tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/ and qa/ files. Add the tests to the appropriate entries so they run in the standard CI and QA suites.
