HPE P68619-001 SN4700M 32-Port 400GbE Ethernet Switch
Overview
The HPE P68619-001 is a high-performance 400 Gigabit Ethernet switch from the HPE Storage Switch M-series SN4700M, meticulously engineered to address the rigorous demands of modern enterprise data centers and high-density storage environments. This cutting-edge networking solution is designed to deliver ultra-high bandwidth, consistent low latency, and predictable performance, effectively eliminating bottlenecks in complex network infrastructures. It is perfectly suited for scenarios requiring exceptional data transfer rates and zero packet loss, critical for applications like hyperconverged infrastructure, cloud deployments, and data analytics. At its core, the SN4700M switch is built on NVIDIA Spectrum-3 technology, offering 32 QSFP-DD ports that support flexible port speeds ranging from 1GbE up to 400GbE. This versatility allows for granular control and optimization across various network segments. With a formidable 25.6 Tbps switching capacity and an 8.4 billion packets per second forwarding rate, it ensures wire-speed performance even under the most intensive workloads. The inclusion of a 64MB on-chip fully-shared packet buffer further enhances efficient traffic management and mitigates congestion, ensuring smooth data flow for latency-sensitive applications. Designed for robust integration within an IT infrastructure, the HPE SN4700M features a compact 1U rack-mountable form factor with a “Power to Connector” (back-to-front) airflow for efficient cooling within data center racks. It supports advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding capabilities, providing a comprehensive solution for sophisticated network architectures. Management flexibility is a cornerstone, with support for network operating systems such as NVIDIA Cumulus Linux, enabling advanced automation, customization, and scalability, thereby simplifying operational oversight and facilitating rapid deployment in evolving data center landscapes.
