HPE 866575-001 Mellanox SH2200 Synergy Switch Module
Overview
The HPE Mellanox SH2200 is a high-performance interconnect module engineered specifically for the HPE Synergy composable infrastructure. It addresses the demand for a high-bandwidth, ultra-low-latency network fabric required by modern data centers running intensive workloads. This module provides a direct, efficient path for east-west traffic between compute resources within the Synergy frame, eliminating traditional top-of-rack switching bottlenecks and simplifying network architecture. Its primary role is to create a resilient, scalable, and high-speed foundation for hybrid IT environments. Based on the advanced Mellanox Spectrum ASIC, the SH2200 module delivers a non-blocking, line-rate switching capacity of up to 2.8 Tbps. This raw performance, combined with sub-300 nanosecond latency, directly translates to accelerated application response times, making it ideal for financial trading, data analytics, and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) workloads. The module's support for Remote Direct Memory Access over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) further enhances efficiency by offloading storage traffic, freeing up CPU cycles for critical application processing. Designed as an integrated plug-in module, the SH2200 fits seamlessly into the HPE Synergy 12000 Frame's interconnect bays. This physical integration allows for simplified deployment and management through HPE OneView, which provides a single, unified interface for composing and managing the entire fabric. The module is TAA-compliant, ensuring it meets the stringent procurement requirements for U.S. federal government and other regulated industry deployments.
