NVIDIA Spectrum SN4000 Series Switches

for accelerated data centers

NVIDIA Spectrum SN4000 series switches are the 4th generation of Spectrum switches, purpose-built for leaf/spine/super-spine datacenter applications. Allowing maximum flexibility, SN4000 series provides port speeds spanning from 1GbE to 400GbE, with a port density that enables full rack connectivity to any server at any speed. In addition, the uplink ports allow a variety of blocking ratios to suit any application requirement.

The SN4000 series is ideal for building wire-speed and cloud-scale layer-2 and layer-3 networks. The SN4000 platforms deliver high performance, consistent low latency along with support for advanced software defined networking features, making it the ideal choice for web scale IT, cloud, hyper converged storage and data analytics applications.

Network Disaggregation: NVIDIA Open Ethernet

Open Ethernet breaks the paradigm of traditional switch systems, eliminating vendor lock-in. Instead of forcing network operators to use the specific software that is provided by the switch vendor, Open Ethernet offers the flexibility to use a choice of operating systems on top of Ethernet switches, thereby re-gaining control of the network, and optimizing utilization, efficiency and overall return on investment.

Open Ethernet adopts the same principles as standard open solutions for servers and storage, and applies them to the world of networking infrastructure. It encourages an ecosystem of open source, standard network solutions.

These solutions can then be easily deployed into the modern data center across network equipment that eases management and ensures full interoperability. With a range of system form factors, and a rich software ecosystem, NVIDIA SN4000 series allows you to pick and choose the right components for your data center.

NVIDIA SN4000 Series

SN4000 series platforms are based on the high-performance Spectrum-3 ASIC with a bidirectional switching capacity of 12.8Tbps. SN4000 platforms are available in a range of configurations, each delivering high performance combined with feature-rich layer 2 and layer 3 forwarding, ideally suited for both top-of-rack leaf and fixed configuration spines. SN4000 series provides full wire speed, cut through-mode latency, on-chip fully-shared 64MB packet buffering, and flexible port use in addition to advanced capabilities. Combining a wide range of innovations in the area of programmability, telemetry, and tunneling with industry leading performance, NVIDIA SN4000 series is capable of addressing today's data center's complex networking requirements.

SN4700

The SN4700 spine/super-spine offers 32 ports of 400GbE in a compact 1U form factor. It enables connectivity to endpoints at varying speeds and carries a throughput of 12.8 Tb/s, with a landmark 8.4Bpps processing capacity. As an ideal spine solution, the SN4700 allows maximum flexibility, with port speeds spanning from 1 to 400GbE per port.

SN4600

SN4600 is a 2U 64-port 200GbE spine that can also be used as a high density leaf, fully splittable to up to 128X 10/25/50GbE ports when used with splitter cables. SN4600 allows for maximum flexibility, with ports spanning from 1 to 200GbE and port density that enables full rack connectivity to any server at any speed, and a variety of blocking ratios.

SN4600C

SN4600C is a 64-port 100GbE switch system that is ideal for spine/super-spine applications. With a landmark 8.4Bpps processing capacity and 6.4Tb/s throughput in a dense 2U form factor, SN4600C offers diverse connectivity in combinations of 10/25/40/50/100GbE. The SN4600C is well-suited to answer the challenging needs
