Mellanox / NVIDIA Spectrum-2 MSN3700-CS2FC resources
The NVIDIA Mellanox Spectrum-2 MSN3700-CS2FC is a high-performance 100 GbE open Ethernet switch designed for data center leaf/spine fabrics, cloud networks, enterprise environments, and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. It is part of the SN3000 Series of switches built around NVIDIA’s advanced Spectrum-2 ASIC, providing a combination of high throughput, low latency, extensive programmability, and open-network flexibility through Cumulus Linux.
High-performance 100GbE open networking
The Spectrum-2 MSN3700-CS2FC is a 1U open Ethernet switch with 32 × 100GbE QSFP28 ports, offering flexible port configurations (1/10/25/40/50/100GbE breakout) and delivering up to 6.4 Tb/s switching capacity and 4.76 Bpps forwarding rate. Optimized for leaf/spine architectures in high-performance computing, cloud, and AI data-center fabrics.
Open Ethernet and disaggregated networking
The SN3700 series supports open-networking via ONIE and can run multiple NOS options including Cumulus Linux, SONiC, and other open NOS platforms—ensuring full disaggregation, automation flexibility, and freedom from vendor lock-in across next-generation data-center environments.
