About the NVIDIA Spectrum SN1400 - 50GbE (SN1400-1S)
The NVIDIA Spectrum SN1400 - 50GbE (SN1400-1S) delivers 3.2 Tbps of aggregate switching capacity with a forwarding rate of up to 2.38 Bpps, providing line-rate performance for demanding data centre environments. Built on the NVIDIA Spectrum-1 switching ASIC, this 1U rack-mount switch combines high-density 50GbE connectivity with sub-microsecond cut-through forwarding latency, enabling real-time, low-latency packet processing critical for high-frequency trading, machine learning pipelines, and storage-intensive workloads.
Network engineers and infrastructure teams will appreciate the SN1400-1S's versatile port configuration: 32 x 50GbE QSFP28 ports support 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE (via breakout) operation, offering flexible migration paths and multi-speed deployments. The switch runs NVIDIA Onyx or Cumulus Linux, supports industry-standard protocols including BGP, OSPF, VXLAN, and BGP EVPN, and integrates NVIDIA What Just Happened (WJH) packet-level telemetry for granular visibility. Dual hot-swappable redundant power supplies and configurable hot-swappable fans (front-to-back or back-to-front airflow) ensure operational continuity. Out-of-band management via dedicated RJ-45 ports and compliance with IEEE and OpenConfig standards round out an enterprise-grade platform engineered for scale.
Typical Enterprise Deployment Scenarios
- High-performance computing clusters requiring sub-microsecond latency and 3.2 Tbps fabric capacity
- Data centre spine-and-leaf architectures using VXLAN and BGP EVPN for multi-tenant isolation
- Storage area networks leveraging 50GbE port density to minimize latency-sensitive I/O bottlenecks
- Cloud-scale deployments with dynamic link aggregation (LACP) and equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) routing
- Observability-first operations using WJH telemetry to monitor packet-level behaviour across the fabric
