All the switches in this series except the one in this review actually have two separate boards inside with a PCIe-over-cable connection between them. For example the SN2700 here (the sleeved cable in the third photo; you can't see the connector from the angle it's taken from):

The cable has a SAS (SFF-8087) connector on each end. I bet you can replace it with an SFF-8087-to-Oculink cable:

and a PCIe-to-oculink card like one of these:
