Description
The Mellanox Spectrum-3 SN4600-VS2FC Ethernet Switch is a high-performance, 4th-generation data center switch designed for scalable, efficient, and flexible networking. Powered by the Mellanox Spectrum-3 ASIC, the SN4600 delivers 12.8 Tb/s switching capacity and wire-speed performance across 64 ports of 200GbE, making it ideal for spine or high-density leaf deployments.
Supporting Open Ethernet architecture, it empowers data centers with freedom of choice and eliminates vendor lock-in by enabling multiple network operating systems such as Cumulus Linux. This switch is optimized for cloud-scale, AI, and high-performance computing environments, offering consistent low latency, 64MB fully shared packet buffering, and advanced programmability, telemetry, and tunneling capabilities.
Built with dual hot-swappable power supplies, back-to-front airflow, and redundant cooling, the SN4600 ensures high availability and reliability. Its comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 support, advanced routing protocols, and intelligent network management options make it the backbone of modern data center infrastructures.
