Product Overview
The NVIDIA Quantum MetroX-2 (MTQ8100-HS2F) is a high-capacity InfiniBand switch engineered specifically for long-haul networking challenges where ultra-high bandwidth and low latency are critical. Outfitted with 10 managed ports—2 EDR InfiniBand 100Gb QSFP28 and 8 HDR InfiniBand 200Gb QSFP56—it delivers a combined throughput of 200 Gbps over distances up to 6.2 miles. This makes it especially well-suited for connecting remote data centers or high-performance computing (HPC) clusters across metropolitan fibers.
The unit features a 1U rack-mountable chassis with back-to-front airflow design, dual hot-plug AC power supplies (80 PLUS Gold efficiency), and a 1+1 redundancy scheme to ensure uninterrupted operation. Integrated management interfaces include SNMP v1/2/3, CLI, DHCP, and a dedicated RJ-45 gigabit LAN port. With support for advanced features such as RDMA, adaptive routing, congestion control, port mirroring, and Mellanox SHARP, the MetroX-2 offers both performance and resilience. It is compliant with leading standards, including IBTA 1.21/1.3, RoHS, FCC, VCCI, and more, and ships with Mellanox MLNX-OS and rack mounting accessories.
Ideal for technology enterprises requiring long-distance scalable bandwidth and low-latency interconnects, the MetroX-2 aids in extending InfiniBand fabrics between physically remote nodes—maximizing ROI by leveraging existing fiber infrastructure and consolidating compute resources across locations.
