18-port 56GbE QSFP+ Switch

This Mellanox MSX6015 is a 1RU InfiniBand switch delivering 18 ports of FDR 56GbE QSFP+ connectivity plus a single RJ-45 management port. It ships with two 300W rear-to-front AC power supplies and matching fan modules for hot-aisle airflow. The unit is new, tested and running updated firmware.

Suits clusters built around 56GbE FDR links

Data centres that have standardised on 56GbE FDR cabling and need an 18-port top-of-rack or leaf switch will fit this chassis directly. Buyers who need higher per-port bandwidth or a larger port count should evaluate other platforms.

18 x FDR 56GbE QSFP+ ports

The port array is the decisive specification: exactly eighteen QSFP+ interfaces operating at FDR 56GbE. Confirm that your interconnect design uses this speed and connector type before committing to the MSX6015.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 FDR QSFP+ ports link with my existing 56GbE QSFP+ cables and transceivers?

The 18 FDR QSFP+ ports operate at 56GbE and accept standard QSFP+ optics and direct-attach cables rated for FDR speeds.

How can I confirm the switch is operating correctly after installation?

Connect to the RJ-45 management port, log in to the management interface, and verify all 18 ports show link-up at FDR rate with the dual 300W power supplies reporting healthy status.

What ships with the unit and what must I purchase separately?

The switch includes two 300W AC rear-to-front power supplies and matching rear-to-front fan modules; QSFP+ transceivers or cables for the 18 data ports are not included.
