  • 64 ports at 100GbE for high-density connectivity
  • 2 RU form factor fits standard rack installations
  • Dual 1100W AC power supplies provide redundancy
  • ONIE installed enables flexible network operating system choice
  • P2C airflow with three fans ensures reliable cooling

High-density 100GbE QSFP28 switch

The HPE SN4600CM is a 2 RU network switch that delivers sixty-four 100GbE QSFP28 ports for high-density spine or leaf deployments. It ships with dual 1100W AC power supplies, three port-to-core airflow fans and ONIE pre-installed for open network operating system flexibility. Management access is provided through an RJ-45 console port, an RS-232 management port and a USB 2.0 Type-A port. Rack-mount hardware is included in the kit.

Ideal for large-scale fabric builds.

This switch suits data-centre operators building 100GbE fabrics who need maximum port density in a 2 RU form factor and prefer ONIE-based software choice. It is not a fit for buyers who need only a handful of 100GbE ports, require integrated uplink ports beyond the sixty-four QSFP28 downlinks, or operate in environments that demand a different airflow direction.

Sixty-four 100GbE QSFP28 ports in 2 RU

The decisive specification is the sixty-four 100GbE QSFP28 ports packed into a 2 RU chassis, which determines whether the density matches the fabric design. Confirm that the QSFP28 transceiver ecosystem and ONIE software stack align with the intended network operating system before deployment.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 2 RU chassis get with three P2C airflow fans running continuously?

Three P2C fans push air front-to-back through the 2 RU chassis; the 1100 W AC supplies and 100 GbE ports generate typical data-centre heat and fan noise levels for this density.

Which cables and transceivers must I already have to populate the 64 QSFP28 ports?

Each of the 64 ports accepts a QSFP28 transceiver; you need compatible 100 GbE optics or direct-attach cables for every link you plan to activate.

Can the RJ-45 console port and USB 2.0 Type-A port connect to my existing serial console server and boot media?

Yes — the RJ-45 console port and RS-232 management port use standard pinouts for serial console servers, and the USB 2.0 Type-A port accepts ordinary USB storage for ONIE boot images.
