Supermicro SSE-T8164 800G Ethernet Switch

Designed specifically to enhance data center networks, the SSE-T8164S offers 64 ports of 800 gigabits per second. These switches ensure accelerated Ethernet connectivity across all data center environments, maintaining top-notch performance and feature richness.

Perfect for implementing AI clustering and cloud-scale infrastructures regardless of data center size, the SSE-T8164S series delivers high performance and ultra-low latency Ethernet with extensive support for advanced data center networking functionalities. The SSE-T8164S is an optimal choice for AI clusters and cloud-based networks by supporting capabilities such as RoCEv2, packet spraying, Dynamic Load Balancing, lossless Ethernet, advanced traffic engineering, and congestion avoidance.

Leveraging cutting-edge switch silicon, the SSE-T8164S series boasts many technologies to support AI/ML needs, and other software innovations to enable the highest performance networks with the lowest cost and lowest energy consumption.

The SSE-T8164S comes with 64 OSFP 800G ports in 2RU form factor to meet the leaf, spine and super spine datacenter architectures. The interfaces provide flexibility to meet a variety of speeds and use cases such as 400G, 200G, 100G using splitter cables and appropriate transceivers. The SSE-T8164X also has two additional 25G SFP28 ports to support added connectivity options. Supermicro has qualified many types of copper and fiber links to the industry’s most common AI adapters supporting a wide choice of cluster designs including extending Direct Attached Copper (DAC) links up to 4 meters when used in conjunction with our Supermicro AOC-S400G adapters.

With an industry standard CLI in Advanced Enterprise SONiC OS on the SSE-T8164S, we are providing greater flexibility to applications such as large-scale enterprises’ high bandwidth needs, AI/ML, and high-performance cloud computing. Supermicro provides user friendly enhancements to the OS that suits the various data center application and deployment scenarios.

The SSE-T8164S provides both front to back (copper to power) airflow and back to front options, designed for future addition of Direct Liquid Cooling. This solution utilizes multiple AC and DC Power supply options, and the included rail kit facilitates simple rack-mounting installation.
