HPE SN2100M Switch

With an increasing need to access data faster and accommodate growing workloads, rising levels of east-west traffic, and new storage arrays based on flash storage technologies, a high bandwidth, low-latency, zero packet loss network becomes paramount. The HPE SN2100M switches offer a 100GbE-based network platform capable of delivering unbelievable networking speed and agility to keep pace with the most intense workloads small- to large-scale enterprises can produce.  With port speeds spanning from 1Gb/s to 100 Gb/s and a switching capacity of 3.2Tb/s from 16 ports at 100GbE, the switch enables non-blocking throughput at wire-speed transfers-across all packet sizes. All this enables the SN2100M to deliver a landmark 4.76 Bpps processing capacity and an uncompromising 300ns cut-through latency in a compact 1RU form factor. The M-Series are perfect for Top-Of-Rack (TOR) deployments and optimized for virtualized environments, hyperconverged infrastructure, and storage deployments.  
 
With HPE M-Series Ethernet switches give you the right network bandwidth with consistent performance for high-performance and storage workloads. Delivering the highest feature set at the right price allows you to get the most out of your Ethernet infrastructure to best support a variety of use cases, including media and entertainment; streaming video, financial services industry, virtualized data centers, and next generation storage, including software-defined storage and NVMe flash. With HPE M-Series switches, you can: 
 
Optimize Storage— modernize your network to eliminate limitations and bottlenecks that can be caused by the addition of flash storage. 
Enjoy efficient network performance— avoid packet loss, provide predictable performance with line-rate packet delivery across all ports and all packet sizes 
Realize breakthrough economics— make better use of your data center resources with the highest port density per rack unit and the industry's lowest power consumption. 
Accelerate business innovation— utilize 1/10/40Gbps Ethernet connectivity for existing workloads and enhance connectivity utilizing built-in 25/50/100Gbps capabilities to respond quickly to business needs and to stay on the leading edge of Ethernet switching technology.  
The  M-Series SN2100 switch provides a high density, side-by-side 100GbE switching solution which scales up to 64 ports per switch with QSFP28 breakout cables for up to 128 10/25Gbs ports in single Rack Unit (1RU) for the growing demands of today's storage, database, and data center environments. The SN2100 carries a unique design to accommodate the highest rack performance. Its design allows side-by-side placement of two switches in a single, 1RU slot of a 19" rack, delivering high availably to the hosts. Available in 8 or 16 100GbE ports, each SN2100 carries a switching capacity of 3.2Tb/s with 2.38Bpps processing capacity when running 16 ports at 100GbE, and enables 6.4Tb/s and 4.76Bpps when two units are deployed side-by-side in a 1 RU space
