Mellanox MSN2410-BB2F Open Ethernet Switch

The Nvidia Mellanox MSN2410-BB2F (SN2410 Series) is a high-performance 1U open-Ethernet switch built for modern top-of-rack (ToR) data center environments. With 48 SFP28 ports capable of 10/25 Gbps and 8 QSFP28 uplinks capable of 100 Gbps (or breakout), it offers remarkable flexibility for evolving server and uplink demands. Moreover, the short-depth form factor and redundant power supplies make deployment easier in compact racks.

Because it’s powered by the Spectrum ASIC and supports ONIE-based OSes (like Mellanox Onyx or Cumulus Linux), it gives enterprises full control over software stack and operational model. Furthermore, latency is kept minimal (≈ 300 ns), while throughput is non-blocking across all ports even under mixed speed traffic patterns.

Key Features & Benefits (Nvidia Mellanox MSN2410-BB2F)

• Flexible Port Speeds: 48 × SFP28 (10/25G) + 8 × QSFP28 (100G) uplinks with breakout options; thus enabling varied link configurations.
• High Throughput & Ultra-Low Latency: 4 Tbps switch fabric with ~2.97 billion packets per second (Bpps) forwarding rate.
• Open Networking & Software Choice: Runs Mellanox Onyx, Cumulus Linux or any ONIE-based OS, thus allowing customized control.
• Compact & Efficient Design: Short depth, P2C airflow, dual AC power supplies for redundancy and ease of cooling.
• Enterprise-Ready Reliability: Hot-swappable fans, robust buffer management, and solid hardware build for mission-critical operations.

Use Cases

• Top-of-Rack (ToR) for AI & HPC Clusters: Ideal for connecting servers with high East-West traffic, especially where 25G or 100G links are needed.
• Data Center Fabrics & Spine Aggregation: Excellent in setups requiring high bandwidth and port scale with minimal latency.
• Cloud Providers & Open Networking Deployments: Great for operators wanting software flexibility, vendor differentiation, or customizable network OS.
• Mixed Speed Environments: Works well where some servers require 10G/25G and others need 100G uplink capacity.
