Overview

The Mellanox MSX6005F-1BFS is a high-performance, 1U switch designed for efficiency and scalability within data center environments. This device is built on the advanced SwitchX®-2 architecture, supporting FDR InfiniBand connectivity. It offers a total of 12 QSFP+ ports, facilitating high-speed data transfer capabilities across networks. The switch is optimized for environments demanding high bandwidth and low latency, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, including high-performance computing, enterprise data centers, and cloud computing infrastructures. One of the key features of this switch is its throughput capacity of 1.34Tb/s, ensuring non-blocking transmission and effective handling of data traffic. With support for speeds of 10, 40, or 56 Gb/s per port, it provides flexible connectivity options to meet the requirements of various network configurations. The MSX6005F-1BFS is designed with a short depth, making it suitable for installations with limited space. Despite its compact size, measuring 1.73” (H) x 7.9” (W) x 15.7” (D) and weighing approximately 2.98kg with a single power supply unit installed, it does not compromise on performance or reliability. The switch operates on a single AC power supply, with the option to mount it side by side for 19” rack mount or table top, depending on the deployment needs. However, it's important to note that the rail kit necessary for mounting is sold separately. In terms of environmental specifications, the MSX6005F-1BFS is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0ºC to 45ºC and can withstand non-operational temperatures from -40° to 70°C. Humidity levels are maintained at 10% to 85% non-condensing during operation, ensuring the switch's performance remains stable under various conditions.
  • Connector airflow out design aids in efficient heat dissipation, rated at 573 BTUs/hr, minimizing the risk of overheating.
  • Power input voltage ranges from 100 to 240 VAC 50-60Hz, with a typical power consumption score (ATIS) under "snake" topology being 38.18, indicating energy-efficient operation.
  • Compliant with RoHS6, the switch adheres to strict environmental standards, emphasizing Mellanox's commitment to sustainability.
Despite being unmanaged, the MSX6005F-1BFS offers straightforward deployment and operation, catering to environments where sophisticated management features are not a primary requirement. The inclusion of 12 QSFP+ connector cages enables seamless integration with existing network infrastructures, providing a straightforward path to upgrading network capabilities without extensive modifications. In summary, the Mellanox MSX6005F-1BFS combines high throughput, flexibility, and efficient operation, wrapped in a compact, easy-to-deploy package. Its adherence to environmental standards, coupled with its ability to operate in a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels, makes it a reliable choice for data centers aiming to enhance their network performance while maintaining a focus on energy conservation and sustainability.
