Are redundant cluster switches supported or recommended for a 4-node switched FAS 8700 four-node cluster? If so is there a recommended document outlining the configuration and or cabling?

yes and yes... should be easy enough to search the support site for "cluster switches"

Also there is a standard config that you cannot change for the switches. Also if you ever plan to do more than 2 NVMe shelves you can also use the switches for 100 Gb shelf connectivity. Here are the supported switches. Broadcom-supported BES-53248
Cisco 9336C-FX2
Cisco 9336-FX2 in shared configurations
NVIDIA SN2100 See this link https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems/fas/index.html

The storage system documentation lets you install, setup, and maintain your system.
