1 Introduction to Mellanox SX1710 and SX1410 Systems
1.1 Overview
Mellanox Ethernet System Family delivers the highest performance and port density with a com-
plete system and fabric management solution enabling converged data centers to operate at any
scale while reducing operational costs and infrastructure complexity. The SX1710 Top-of-Rack
(TOR) system and Aggregation Switch has 36 ports and supports 1/10/40/56Gb/s per port. It
allows IT managers to build cost-effective and scalable system fabrics for small to large clusters
up to 10's-of-thousands of nodes.
The SX1410 is the optimal top of rack (TOR) switch with 48 port of 10GbE and 12 uplink ports
of 40/56GbE for non-blocking throughput between the rack and aggregation layer. Based on
Mellanox’s SwitchX®-2 silicon and advanced hardware design this switch packs 48 SFP+ and
12 QSFP interfaces in an ultra-dense 1U form factor. The SX1410 features industry leading
latency of 250ns and power efficiency while providing optimal performance for enterprise data
center, financial services, Web 2.0, high performance computing and cloud computing applica
-
tions.
Mellanox makes fabric management as easy as it can by providing the lowest latency and highest
bandwidth. This allows IT managers to deal with serving the company's business needs, while
solving typical networking issues such as congestion and the inefficiencies generated by adding
unnecessary rules and limitations when the network resources are sufficient.
