About the NVIDIA Spectrum SN1200
The NVIDIA Spectrum SN1200 employs a non-blocking, shared-memory architecture delivering 800 Mpps forwarding rate and 1.2 Tbps switching capacity, ensuring minimal latency and wire-speed packet processing across all ports simultaneously. Built on the NVIDIA Spectrum-1 switching ASIC, the SN1200-4S (part number SN1200-4S) is a 1U fixed-configuration switch that combines 48 × 10GbE SFP+ ports with 4 × 40GbE QSFP+ uplink ports, making it ideal for high-density, low-latency datacenter deployments where oversubscription must be eliminated and predictable performance is non-negotiable.
Network engineers and infrastructure architects select the NVIDIA Spectrum SN1200 for environments requiring robust Layer 2 and Layer 3 routing capabilities, including support for VLANs, STP/RSTP/MSTP, LACP, and MLAG at Layer 2, plus IPv4/IPv6 static routing, BGP, and OSPF at Layer 3. The switch runs NVIDIA Cumulus Linux as its network operating system and supports advanced protocols including ECMP, VXLAN, BGP-EVPN, LLDP, DCBX, PFC, and ECN, enabling seamless integration into modern overlay networks and ensuring lossless Ethernet for demanding workloads. Field-replaceable AC power supply and hot-swappable fan modules with front-to-back airflow simplify operations, while the out-of-band RJ-45 management port and dedicated console interface provide flexible administrative access across operating temperatures from 0°C to 45°C.
