Due to increased business and regulatory requirements, organizations of all sizes regularly need to move, share, and protect their data - but they often face significant challenges in doing so. For instance, smaller organizations might lack the dedicated resources, skills, or budgets for high-end data protection systems and business continuity. Larger enterprises might need to connect multiple remote sites in a robust manner, yet have limited budget to do so. And IP network service providers might need a proven remote connectivity solution that interoperates with existing Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructures and is simple to deploy and manage.

The Brocade 7500E Extension Switch, leveraging leading-edge Brocade 7500 technology, provides the performance, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness required to meet these and other business requirements. The Brocade 7500E combines Fiber Channel over IP (FCIP) capabilities with fabric isolation for point-to-point connectivity of remote SAN fabrics or Fiber Channel storage over IP Wide Area Networks (WANs) without merging fabrics.

By avoiding fabric merges, the Brocade 7500E provides WAN link and remote SAN fault isolation to increase availability for mission-critical applications and to minimize the impact of network failures. As a result, it is ideal for supporting strategic initiatives for disaster recovery, business continuity, and data migration. The Brocade 7500E is interoperable with existing Fiber Channel and IP assets, as well as advanced Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) features such as virtual fabrics. A transparent upgrade path to additional ports and advanced functionality provides investment protection, making it an excellent entry-level and/or remote site FCIP solution. BR-7500E-0000-A comes with 4 ports: 2 Fiber Channel (E, F, FL, EX) ports and 2 Gigabit Ethernet (VE, VEX) ports; software license upgrade is available to activate 14 additional Fiber Channel ports.
