Switch-if 2 is the world's first Smart network switch, designed to enable in-network computing through the co-design scalable Hierarchical aggregation protocol (sharp) technology. The co-design architecture enables the usage of all active data center devices to accelerate the communications frameworks, resulting in order of magnitude applications performance improvements. Switch-if 2 offers industry-leading integration of 144 serves, with rich speed flexibility ranging from 1 to 25 GB/s per lane, making this Mellanox switch an obvious choice for OEM that must address end-user requirements for faster and more robust applications. Network architects can utilize switch-if 2's reduced power and footprint, and a fully integrated PHY capable of connectivity across PCBs, backplanes, and passive and Active copper/fiber cables, To deploy leading, fabric flexible computing and storage systems with the lowest total cost of ownership.
