Overview
HPE M SN3700cM Ethernet Switch - 100 Gigabit Ethernet - 100GBase-X - 3 Layer Supported - Modular - 242 W Power Consumption - Optical Fiber - 1U High - Rack-mountable
HPE M-series SN3700M switches are ideal for modern server and storage networks. Supporting up to 200 GbE, it delivers predictable performance and zero packet loss at line-rate across all ports and packet sizes. Enhanced for storage combined with efficient design, it provides enterprise-level performance with attractive economics and outstanding return on investment. Networks built on the HPE M-series SN3700M are fast, reliable, and scalable while also being affordable and easy to manage. They support primary and secondary storage, providing consistently fair, fast, low-latency connectivity even under heavy workloads or a mix of different port speeds. This makes them ideal for storage, hyperconverged, financial services, and media and entertainment deployments.
FEATURES | Designed for Superior Performance, Scale, and Future Growth
HPE SN3700M Ethernet switches deliver predictable and consistent throughput regardless of the packet size being transferred, the mixture of ports which are sending data and even within mixed speed environments.
Provide wire-rate performance with zero packet loss across frame sizes, avoiding any negative impact on applications that could occur with frame loss as unexpected packet loss is unacceptable in modern data centers, especially within a storage network.
Capable of forwarding wire-rate performance with zero packet loss across 32- ports concurrently while transferring data across both Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks.
With port speeds spanning 1Gb/s to 200 Gb/s and a switching capacity of 12.8Tb/s from 32 ports at 200GbE or 6.4Tb/s from 32 ports at 100GbE, these switches provide non-blocking throughput at wire-speed transfers-across all packet sizes.
Utilize 1/10/40Gbps Ethernet connectivity for existing workloads and enhance connectivity utilizing built-in 25/50/100/200Gbps capabilities to respond quickly to business needs and to stay on the leading edge of Ethernet switching technology.
Enhanced for Demanding Enterprise Data Centers and Storage Environments
HPE SN3700M Switch allows flexible port speed configurations from 128-ports at 10 GbE, 25 GbE using breakout cables to 32-ports at 40 GbE or 100 GbE or 200GbE allowing flexibility, efficiency, simplifying scale-out of aggregation switching layers, and reducing total cost of ownership (TCO).
In the aggregation layer of fabrics, load balancing and scalability are essential. HPE SN3700M Switch provides superior equal-cost multipath (ECMP) flexibility and efficiency to deliver balanced workloads.
Flexible management and monitoring options from CLI, GUI, and tool sets provide world-class ease-of-use, configuration, and monitoring of your fabric.
- 100 Gigabit Ethernet provides high bandwidth performance, ease of use and reliability for your network backbone
- Rack mounting enables you to organize wires & secure cables for professional installation
- Supports layer 3 switching for enhanced performance and usability
