HPE M-Series Ethernet Switches - Refurbished, Used, New
HPE M-Series switches are 10, 25 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet data center switches built on Mellanox SN-series hardware, now part of NVIDIA. NVIDIA's HPE reference maps HPE M-Series part numbers to Mellanox MSN models. This collection carries the SN2010M, SN2100M, SN2410M, SN2410bM, SN2700M, SN3700M and SN4600cM in new, refurbished and used condition. Refurbished and used units are tested before they ship.
HPE sells these as storage networking switches, but they are Ethernet switches. They do not carry Fibre Channel traffic.
Which HPE M-Series switch do I need?
For 25GbE server access, the SN2410M has 48 SFP28 ports and 8 QSFP28 100GbE uplinks in 1U, with 4 Tb/s of switching capacity. The SN2410bM uses the same layout with 10GbE SFP+ access ports. Two versions ship with half the ports active: the Q6M27A and Q6M29A have 24 SFP ports and 4 QSFP28 ports active.
For small racks or storage clusters, the SN2010M (18 SFP28 plus 4 QSFP28) and SN2100M (8 QSFP28 on the Q2F24A) are half-width 1U switches. HPE states that two half-width units fit side by side in one rack unit.
For 100GbE aggregation, the SN2700M has 32 QSFP28 ports in 1U, 6.4 Tb/s of switching capacity, two hot-swappable power supplies and hot-swappable fans. The SN3700M listings here are also 32 port 100GbE QSFP28 1U switches. The SN4600cM doubles the port count to 64 QSFP28 in 2U, with 12.8 Tb/s of switching capacity.

What does the airflow in the title mean?
Back-to-front means port-side exhaust: air enters at the power supply end and leaves at the ports. HPE calls this power-to-connector (P2C). Front-to-back means port-side intake, which HPE calls connector-to-power (C2P). M-Series models are sold in both directions under different part numbers, so match the part to the rack's cold aisle. Where the table says check the listing, the listing title states the airflow.
What does ONIE mean?
ONIE (Open Network Install Environment) parts are sold for loading a network operating system of the buyer's choice. HPE sells separate M-Series part numbers for ONIE and for switches with an operating system installed at the factory, so check the listing for what is on the unit.
Can the 100GbE ports run at lower speeds?
Yes. On the SN2010M, SN2100M and SN2700M, HPE documents 40GbE operation and breakout of each QSFP28 port into lower-speed links, for example 10GbE or 25GbE, using breakout cables.
