HPE Q6M26A SN2700M 16QSFP28 Switch

Overview

The HPE Q6M26A SN2700M is a 100GbE network switch designed for high-density, high-bandwidth environments. With 16 QSFP28 ports, it provides the necessary throughput for demanding surveillance deployments, supporting multiple 4K streams or high-speed data aggregation from network edge devices. This switch is crucial for building scalable, robust video infrastructure where network latency and bandwidth are critical.

Compatibility

This switch is compatible with network infrastructure requiring high-speed Ethernet connectivity. It is designed to integrate with other network devices and servers that support 100GbE interfaces. Specifically, it is part of the HPE SN2700M series, indicated by its part number Q6M26A, and is distinct from the Q2F21A model which features 32 QSFP28 ports. Ensure your upstream and downstream devices support QSFP28 form factor transceivers and 100GbE speeds for seamless integration.

Installation Notes

The HPE Q6M26A weighs 15.42 lb, requiring adequate rack support. It uses standard Ethernet interfaces, necessitating appropriate QSFP28 transceivers and cabling for 100GbE connections. Proper ventilation is critical due to the high data rates and potential heat generation; ensure it is installed in a well-cooled rack environment. Country of origin includes IL, IN, and TW.
