About the NVIDIA Spectrum SN3500 - 200/800GbE (SN3500-1S)
The NVIDIA Spectrum SN3500-1S delivers enterprise-grade switching with redundant hot-swappable power supplies and cooling systems designed for mission-critical data center deployments. This 1U rack-mount switch combines ultra-high throughput with flexible port configuration, making it the ideal choice for network engineers and cloud infrastructure teams requiring deterministic, low-latency fabric connectivity at hyperscale.
Built on the NVIDIA Spectrum-3 ASIC, the SN3500-1S (part number SN3500-1S) features 32 x 800GbE QSFP-DD ports that are fully configurable for 200GbE, 400GbE, or 800GbE breakout modes, supporting speeds from 10GbE up to 800GbE. With a switching capacity of 51.2 Tbps and forwarding rate of approximately 19.2 Bpps, this switch handles the most demanding east-west traffic patterns. Hardware-accelerated RoCEv2 lossless fabric configuration, coupled with sub-microsecond cut-through forwarding latency and deep-buffer shared packet memory, ensures predictable performance for AI, HPC, and storage-intensive workloads. Out-of-band management, comprehensive telemetry via INT, sFlow, SNMP, and gRPC/gNMI streaming, plus support for Cumulus Linux, NVIDIA ONYX, and Open Network Linux, provide deployment flexibility across diverse environments.
