Overview

The NVIDIA Spectrum SN5600 is a powerful 2U open Ethernet switch featuring 64×800GbE OSFP ports plus 1×25GbE SFP28 port, delivering a massive 51.2Tbps switching capacity with line-rate forwarding of 33.3 billion packets per second. Optimized for high-density spine and super-spine fabrics, it supports a broad range of Ethernet speeds from 1GbE up to 800GbE per port. Designed for standard spine architectures including middle-of-row (MoR) and end-of-row (EoR) deployments, the SN5600 supports modern data center scale and flexibility. It ships with support for leading open network operating systems like Cumulus Linux and SONiC, making it ideal for hyperscale cloud and AI infrastructures.

Question:

What network OS options are supported on the SN5600, and how mature is their integration?

Answer:

Cumulus Linux is the NOS we recommend for NVIDIA Spectrum switches as it is the most mature and robust option. You can also opt to go with Pure SONiC, which is NVIDIA hardened version of SONiC. Please note that Cumulus is already included in the price of the switch and it comes preloaded.

Question:

Is Cumulus pre-loaded on the switch?
