InfiniBand switches will also have a short (4 inches) tab at the rear of the unit which contains the system serial number.  It should be a small white tab, to the left of the left power supply but inside of the chassis itself.
You can pull it out and read the serial numner (SN) from there.
Do not pull the module out more than 4 inches or of 10cm as you may inflict damage:



Please notice that these Exadata NM2-36 IB switches (SUNDC SWITCH IB-36P MANAGED) are now being stamped with "AK" in the middle of the serial number.  This can make it hard to distinguish them from the rack serial number (aka the Master Serial Number), which also have "AK" in the middle.
