Overview

HPE StoreFabric M Manageable Layer 3 Switch - 100 Gigabit Ethernet - 100GBase-X - 3 Layer Supported - Modular - Optical Fiber - 1U High - Rack-mountable - 3 Year Limited Warranty

HPE M-series SN2100M Switch

With an increasing need to access data faster and accommodate growing workloads, rising levels of east-west traffic, and new storage arrays based on flash storage technologies, a high bandwidth, low-latency, zero packet loss network becomes paramount. The HPE SN2100M switches offer a 100GbE-based network platform capable of delivering unbelievable networking speed and agility to keep pace with the most intense workloads small- to large-scale enterprises can produce. With port speeds spanning from 1Gb/s to 100 Gb/s and a switching capacity of 3.2Tb/s from 16 ports at 100GbE, the switch enables non-blocking throughput at wire-speed transfers-across all packet sizes. All this enables the SN2100M to deliver a landmark 4.76 Bpps processing capacity and an uncompromising 300ns cut-through latency in a compact 1RU form factor. The M-Series are perfect for Top-Of-Rack (TOR) deployments and optimized for virtualized environments, hyperconverged infrastructure, and storage deployments.

With HPE M-Series Ethernet switches give you the right network bandwidth with consistent performance for high-performance and storage workloads. Delivering the highest feature set at the right price allows you to get the most out of your Ethernet infrastructure to best support a variety of use cases, including media and entertainment; streaming video, financial services industry, virtualized data centers, and next generation storage, including software-defined storage and NVMe flash. With HPE MSeries switches, you can:

  • Optimize Storage- modernize your network to eliminate limitations and bottlenecks that can be caused by the addition of flash storage.
  • Enjoy efficient network performance- avoid packet loss, provide predictable performance with line-rate packet delivery across all ports and all packet sizes.
  • Realize breakthrough economics- make better use of your data center resources with the highest port density per rack unit and the industry's lowest power consumption.
  • Accelerate business innovation- utilize 1/10/40Gbps Ethernet connectivity for existing workloads and enhance connectivity utilizing built-in 25/50/100Gbps capabilities to respond quickly to business needs and to stay on the leading edge of Ethernet switching technology.

The M-Series SN2100 switch provides a high density, side-by-side 100GbE switching solution which scales up to 64 ports per switch with QSFP28 breakout cables for up to 128 10/25Gbs ports in single Rack Unit (1RU) for the growing demands of today's storage, database, and data center environments. 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 availably to the hosts. Available in 8 or 16 100GbE ports, each SN2100 carries a switching capacity of 3.2Tb/s with 2.38Bpps processing capacity when running 16 ports at 100GbE, and enables 6.4Tb/s and 4.76Bpps when two units are deployed side-by-side in a 1 RU space

SN2100M is available in two models:

  • HPE StoreFabric SN2100M 100GbE 16QSFP28
  • HPE StoreFabric SN2100M 100GbE 8QSFP28
