NVIDIA MQM9700-NS2F network switch 32 OSFP 400Gb/s managed

NVIDIA Quantum-2 NDR InfiniBand Switch

This managed rackmount switch delivers 32 OSFP ports, each capable of 40, 56, 100, 200 or 400 Gb/s operation, for a maximum aggregate throughput of 51.2 Tb/s. It is built for high-performance computing clusters and storage fabrics that require low-latency InfiniBand connectivity at NDR speeds. The on-board subnet manager supports simplified bring-up for deployments of up to 2,000 nodes without an external management server. Typical power draw with passive cables is 747 W, rising to a maximum of 1,720 W with active cables.

Suits HPC and AI clusters needing managed NDR fabric

Organisations building two-level Fat Tree topologies for compute or storage will benefit from the port density and integrated subnet manager. Buyers who need more than 32 ports per switch, require a different form factor, or operate outside the 0–35 °C forward airflow range should evaluate alternative platforms. The unit weighs 13.6 kg with one power supply or 14.8 kg with two, and measures 438 mm high, 43.6 mm wide and 660 mm deep.

32 OSFP ports at 400 Gb/s decide fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the complement of 32 OSFP interfaces running at up to 400 Gb/s each, providing 51.2 Tb/s total bandwidth. If the fabric design calls for a different port count, a different connector type, or Ethernet protocol instead of InfiniBand, this model will not match the requirement. Power input accepts 200–240 Vac at 50/60 Hz with a 10 A rating per supply.
