The Supermicro SN3000 series switches are powered by the NVIDIA Spectrum-2 switch ASIC, a key component in the NVIDIA Spectrum Ethernet platform, purpose-built to accelerate data center fabrics. The SSE-SN3000 series provides port speeds spanning from 25GbE to 200GbE, and delivers accelerated Ethernet to any server at any speed.

The SSE-SN3000 series is ideal for enabling cloud-scale efficiency for data centers of any size. The SSE-SN3000 platforms provide high performance and consistent low latency along with support for advanced software defined networking features, making them the ideal choice for web scale IT, cloud, hyperconverged storage and data analytics applications.

As part of the Spectrum platform, the SSE-SN3000 platforms are pre-tested and pre-validated with NVIDIA's full portfolio of Ethernet networking technology, including BlueField DPUs and ConnectX SmartNICs. This end-to-end switch to host solution is critical to powering accelerated workloads, and delivers the high performance and innovative feature set needed to supercharge cloud-native applications at scale.

NETWORK DISAGGREGATION: OPEN ETHERNET

Open Ethernet breaks the paradigm of traditional switch systems, eliminating vendor lock-in. Instead of forcing network operators to use the specific software that is provided by the switch vendor, open Ethernet offers the flexibility to use a choice of operating systems on top of Ethernet switches, thereby re-gaining control of the network, and optimizing utilization, efficiency and overall return on investment.

Encouraging an ecosystem of open source, standard network solutions, open Ethernet adopts the same principles as standard open solutions for servers and storage, and applies them to the world of networking infrastructure. These solutions can then be easily deployed into the modern data center across network equipment that eases management and ensures full interoperability. With a range of system form factors, and a rich software ecosystem, SSE-SN3000 series allows you to pick and choose the right components for your data center.

Supermicro SN3000 SERIES

SSE-SN3000 series platforms are based on the high-performance NVIDIA Spectrum-2 ASIC with a bidirectional switching capacity of 6.4Tb/s. SSE-SN3000 platforms are available in a range of configurations, each delivering high performance combined with feature-rich layer 2 and layer 3 forwarding, ideally suited for both top-of-rack (ToR) leaf and fixed configuration spines.

SSE-SN3000 series provides full wire speed, cut through-mode latency, on-chip fully-shared 42MB packet buffering, and flexible port use in addition to advanced capabilities. Combining a wide range of innovations in the area of programmability, telemetry, and tunneling with industry leading performance, SSE-SN3000 series is capable of addressing today's data center's complex networking requirements.
