Brocade 5340 Switch Bundle 80 Port-8GB

Industry-Leading Performance and Scalibility
The Brocade 5300 features a non-blocking architecture with as many as 80 ports concurrently active at 8 Gbit/sec (full duplex) with no over-subscriptionproviding an aggregate bandwidth of 1360 Gbit/sec. This level of performance and connectivity is ideal for expanding virtual server environments. In addition, enhanced ISL Trunking can supply up to 68 Gbit/sec of balanced data throughput in a single logical link.

The high port density of the Brocade 5300 uniquely enables fan-out from the core of the data center fabric with less than half the number of switch devices compared to traditional 32- or 40-port edge switches. As a result, it can provide a single-domain solution that simplifies fabric management and reduces the data center footprint.

With capabilities such as Ports On Demand scalability from 48 to 64 or 80 ports, the Brocade 5300 also enables organizations to grow their storage networks when necessary, in a non-disruptive manner.

To support SAN extension, the Brocade 5300 enables servers and storage devices to reside up to 600 kilometers apart, allowing your organization to implement the most sophisticated business continuance and disaster recovery initiatives.

Adaptive Networking Service
The Brocade 5300 utilizes Brocade Adaptive Networking services, a suite of tools for optimizing fabric behavior and ensuring ample bandwidth for mission-critical applications. These tools currently include QoS, Ingress Rate Limiting, Traffic Isolation, and Top Talkers. For additional flexibility and value, the Brocade 5300 also provides Integrated Routing capabilities to connect switches in different fabrics.
Key Features and Benefits
Delivers full 8 Gbit/sec 1:1 performance for up to 80 ports in a single-domain, optimized 2U form factor
Ofers best-in-class port density and scalability for an enterprise SAN switch
Protects existing device investments with auto-sensing 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/sec capabilities
Enables "pay-as-you-grow" capabilities with Ports On Demand scalability from 48 to 64 or 80 ports
Provides Adaptive Networking services such as Quality of Service (QoS) to help optimize application performance in consolidated, virtual environments
Improves energy efficiency by combining increased bandwidth with lower power consumption
Utilizes the Brocade EZSwitchSetup wizard to simplify installation, and is Microsoft Simple SAN-compatible
Provides Fibre Channel Integrated Routing capabilities, enabling selective device sharing while maintaining remote fabric isolation
End-To-End Performance and Reliability
Brocade 8Gb switches require Brocade optical transceiver modules, which are available in a multiple models to satisfy a wide range of speed and distance requirements. These Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules are optimized for Brocade 8Gb products to maximize performance, reduce power consumption, and help ensure the highest availability of miss ion-critical applications.
