Open networking switches
The SN2100 network switch provides a high density, side-by-side 100GbE switching solution which scales up to 128 ports in 1RU for the growing demands of today's database, storage, and data centers environments.
The SN2100 switch is an ideal spine and top of rack (ToR) solution, allowing maximum flexibility, with port speeds spanning from 10Gb/s to 100Gb/s per port and port density that enables full rack connectivity to any server at any speed. The uplink ports allow a variety of blocking ratios that suit any application requirement.
Powered by the Spectrum ASIC and packed with 16 ports running at 100GbE, the SN2100 carries a whopping throughput of 3.2Tb/s with a landmark 2.38Bpps processing capacity in a compact 1RU form factor.

The NVIDIA Spectrum SN2000 series switches are the 2nd generation of NVIDIA switches, purpose-built for leaf/spine/super-spine datacenter applications. Allowing maximum flexibility, SN2000 series provides port speeds spanning from 1 to 100GbE, with a port density that enables full rack connectivity to any server at 1/20/25/40/50/100GbE speeds. In addition, the uplink ports allow a variety of blocking ratios to suit any application requirement.
The SN2000 series is ideal for building wire-speed and cloud-scale layer-2 and layer-3 networks. The SN2000 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, hyperconverged storage and data analytics applications.
The SN2100 carries a unique design to accommodate the highest rack performance. Its design allows side-by-side placement of two switches in a single 1RU slot of a 19” rack, delivering high availability to the hosts. The SN2100 accommodates 16 ports running at 100GbE, with throughput of 1.6Tb/s and a 2.38Bpps processing capacity.

Network Disaggregation: Open Ethernet
Open Ethernet breaks the paradigm of traditional switch systems, eliminating vendor lock-in. Open Ethernet offers customers the flexibility and freedom 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.
Encouraging an ecosystem of open source, standard network solutions, Open Ethernet allows IT managers and data center planners the option to make independent selections with regard to their switching equipment. They can “mix and match” offerings from different equipment vendors to achieve optimal configuration and have better control of capital and operational expenditures.
With a range of system form factors, and a rich software ecosystem, SN2000 series allows you to pick and choose the right components for your data center.
SN2000 Platforms
SN2000 series platforms are powered by the Spectrum ASIC and available in 4 configurations. Each delivers high performance combined with feature-rich layer 2 and layer 3 forwarding—ideal for both top-of-rack leaf and fixed configuration spines. Superior hardware capabilities including dynamic flexible shared buffers and predictable wire speed performance with no packet loss for any packet size. While the SN2000 Ethernet switch series is aimed for the 25/50/100GbE market, NVIDIA offers similar systems for the 10/40GbE market: SN2000B switches are priced comfortably for the 10/40 GbE market and provide the superior feature set of NVIDIA Spectrum. The SN2000 series are standards compliant and fully interoperable with third party systems.
