The NVIDIA Mellanox SN3700C delivers ultimate deployment flexibility with 32 ports of 100 Gigabit Ethernet that transform into 128 ports of 25GbE when you need maximum density. This refurbished Spectrum-2 switch serves double duty as either a high-capacity spine switch or an ultra-dense leaf switch, adapting to your exact network requirements.
Powered by the advanced Spectrum-2 ASIC, the SN3700C provides 6.4 Tbps of non-blocking throughput with 4.76 billion packets per second processing capacity. Deploy as a traditional 32x100G spine for east-west traffic, or use breakout cables to create the industry's densest leaf switch with 128x25G ports for connecting massive server deployments in a single rack unit.
Perfect for organizations that need deployment flexibility as infrastructure evolves. Start with 100G spine connectivity, then repurpose the same hardware as a high-density 25G leaf when expanding server count. Each QSFP28 port flexibly supports 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G, or 100G speeds, providing maximum investment protection.
Key Benefits:
- 6.4 Tbps switching capacity for demanding workloads
- 32x100G or 128x25G port flexibility in one switch

This refurbished unit has been professionally tested and certified to like-new condition. Includes dual redundant AC power supplies and supports both port-to-cooling (P2C) and cooling-to-port (C2P) airflow configurations for flexible data center thermal management. Rail kit included.
The SN3700C's unprecedented flexibility makes it ideal for organizations with evolving requirements. Use as a 100G spine today, then redeploy as a high-density 25G leaf tomorrow without replacing hardware. Breakout cables sold separately.
The What Just Happened telemetry provides real-time visibility into network behavior, dramatically reducing troubleshooting time by answering when, what, who, where, and why issues occur. Hardware-accelerated histograms track queue depths at sub-microsecond granularity for unprecedented operational insight.
