Description

NVIDIA Mellanox MSX1016X-2BFS SwitchX-2 64-Port 10GbE SFP+ Switch: This is a 1U managed Ethernet switch with 64 SFP+ ports operating at 10 Gigabit Ethernet, built on the Mellanox SwitchX-2 ASIC. The MSX1016X-2BFS is an Ethernet aggregation switch, not an InfiniBand switch and not a NIC. Refurbished and fully tested.

Engineering Context: The 64 SFP+ ports provide non-blocking 10GbE connectivity in a single rack unit, suitable for high-density 10GbE aggregation. The platform supports Layer 2 switching with MLNX-OS management software and is designed for short-reach copper DAC, AOC, and SFP+ optical transceivers. The product targets Open Ethernet topologies where standardized hardware and open management are required.

Deployment & Use Cases: Top-of-rack 10GbE aggregation, storage-network leaves for iSCSI and NFS clusters, hyperconverged infrastructure interconnect, lab and test-bed Ethernet, and HPC clusters running 10GbE rather than 40GbE. Useful where high SFP+ port density per rack unit is required.

Technical Specifications:

  • Manufacturer part number: MSX1016X-2BFS
  • Switch ASIC: Mellanox SwitchX-2
  • Ports: 64 x SFP+ at 10 Gigabit Ethernet
  • Form factor: 1U rack-mountable
  • Management: MLNX-OS (CLI, SNMP, web UI)
  • Layer support: Layer 2 Ethernet switching
  • Power: dual AC power supplies (redundant)
  • Series: SwitchX-2 / SX1016 family
  • Media: SFP+ DAC, AOC, optical transceivers
  • Architecture: Open Ethernet switch
  • Compliance: RoHS
  • Condition: Refurbished, fully tested

Compatibility & Constraints: Works with standard SFP+ DAC and SFP+ optics; transceiver vendor compatibility should be verified, as some firmware revisions enforce specific vendor whitelists. This is a 10GbE-only platform – it is not a 25G or 40G switch and ports do not auto-negotiate to 25GbE. Not an InfiniBand switch.

Why TES IT-Solutions: Each unit is professionally tested by experienced technicians and ships in very good working condition with minimal cosmetic wear. Visit tes-itsolutions.com for catalog, compatibility questions, and bulk pricing. Standard handling time: 1–3 business days.
