How can you provide fast, reliable and cost-effective connectivity in the data center with predictable performance and investment protection? The HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch is ideal for modern server and storage networks. Supporting port speeds of 1, 10, 25, 40, 50 and 100GbE, they deliver predictable performance and zero packet loss at line-rate. Its unique port counts and half-width form factor allows for up to two HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch units to be deployed side-by-side for increased density and high-availability in a single rack unit making it the perfect top-of-rack switch. Storage-specific features combined with an efficient design provides enterprise-level performance with attractive economics and outstanding ROI. Networks built on Hewlett Packard Enterprise M-series switches are fast, reliable, and scalable while also being affordable. This makes these switches ideal for storage, hyperconverged, financial services, Big Data and media and entertainment deployments.

Features

Unleash Storage Performance and Improve Flash ROI

The HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch is a half-width 10/25GbE and 40/100GbE Ethernet switch designed for primary, secondary storage, and hyper converged infrastructures. This top-of-rack (ToR) solution packs 18-ports of 10/25GbE and 4-ports of 40/100GbE that can be reconfigured with breakout cables.

Delivers low latency for 10/25GbE and 40/100GbE switching, featuring a robust implementation of data, control and management planes, and offers a compact form factor and low power consumption.

Provides ultra-low latency of under 300 ns port-to-port. This is advantageous for flash storage which has moved latency bottlenecks from storage access to the network, as well as for the burst nature of today's software defined and cloud data centers traffic.

The buffering architecture provides superior micro-burst absorption for applications that experience data surges across different parts of the network at random intervals.

Ideal for Demanding Enterprise Data Centers and Storage Environments

The HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch provides a flexible combination of ports, allowing for great flexibility, efficiency, and simplification of scale-out environments, saving on total cost of ownership.

Unique port configurations allow high-speed rack connectivity to the server at 1/10GbE or 25GbE speeds with 40/100GbE uplink ports that allow for a variety of blocking ratios that suit specific application requirements.

Enhanced for RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), full buffer utilization, and zero packet loss combined into a small form factor with low latency make it the ideal switch for the Ethernet storage fabric (ESF).

Enhanced for Storage and Hyper Converged Environments

The HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch provides high port density in a single rack unit, allowing for increased capacity and efficiency, simplifying scale-out environments and saving on total cost of ownership.

With its unique half-width form factor and port counts, this Ethernet switch allows for two HPE StoreFabric SN2010M Switch units to be deployed side-by-side allowing for increased density and high-availability in a single rack unit, making it the ideal top-of-rack switch.

Designed to use less electric power than competing switches, the SN2010M provides for one of the industry's lowest power draws, producing less heat than competing products and reducing operating expenses.
