About the NVIDIA Spectrum SN2800 - 100GbE

The NVIDIA Spectrum SN2800 - 100GbE (part number SN2800-2S) delivers 32 ports of 100GbE connectivity in a compact 2U form factor, making it ideal for high-density datacenter and cloud infrastructure deployments. Built on the NVIDIA Spectrum-1 ASIC, this switch provides 6.4 Tbps of switching capacity and 4.76 Bpps forwarding rate, enabling wire-speed performance across all ports simultaneously. Network engineers and infrastructure architects will appreciate the flexible breakout options—each QSFP28 port supports 4x25GbE or 2x50GbE configurations—allowing seamless adaptation to diverse bandwidth requirements without hardware replacement.

The SN2800-2S runs NVIDIA Cumulus Linux or NVIDIA Onyx operating systems and supports industry-standard routing and switching protocols including BGP, OSPF, EVPN, VXLAN, and LACP (802.3ad), alongside advanced congestion management features like PFC and ECN. Sub-microsecond latency in cut-through forwarding mode ensures minimal packet delay for latency-sensitive applications. Management capabilities include out-of-band 1G connectivity, redundant hot-swappable power supplies, hot-swappable fan modules with flexible airflow options, and comprehensive automation support via Zero-touch provisioning, Ansible, Puppet, Chef, and NVIDIA NetQ. Streaming telemetry via gRPC/gNMI provides real-time visibility into network performance. For IT procurement teams evaluating next-generation datacenter switching platforms, the SN2800-2S combines exceptional port density with enterprise-grade reliability and operational flexibility.
