In the normal coding scheme (8b/10b), CRC errors are detected and the corrupt packets are dropped.
Page 42 Brocade MLXe Series router switch fabric modules are dedicated, which means that they function properly in these routers only. If you attempt to install a Brocade MLXe Series router switch fabric module in another Brocade device or a switch fabric module intended for another Brocade device in a Brocade MLXe Series router, the router and switch fabric module will not function properly.
Page 43: High-Speed Switch Fabric Modules
Gen-1 switch fabric modules and Gen-2 high-speed fabric (HSF) modules are not compatible and will not operate together in the same device. HSF modules are supported on Brocade MLXe Series routers, and are interoperable with all existing interface modules. HSF modules are hot-swappable, which means you can install or replace them while the system is powered up and running.
Page 44 Router modules Brocade MLXe Series routers support the following power supply options: • 4-slot router: Can accommodate four 1200W or 1800W power supplies. For power redundancy, you must purchase additional power supplies depending on how you populate your router. For determining the number of power supplies required for redundancy, refer to Chapter 7, “Hardware Specifications”.
