What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against S4B21A#ABA specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Quoted with the optics and rails
The switch, the transceivers at both ends and the mounting hardware go on one bill of materials, so nothing blocks the install.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
