Expanded security for up to 16,000 hardware zones. Hardware zoning is accomplished at the port
level of the switch or by World Wide Name (WWN). Hardware zoning permits or denies delivery of
frames to any destination port address.
Unicast, multicast (255 groups), and broadcast data traffic type, are support.
Brocade Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) or SFP+ optical transceivers support any
combination of Short Wavelength (SWL), Long Wavelength (LWL) or Extended Long Wavelength
(ELWL) optical media among the switch ports.
Brocade Fabric Operating System (Fabric OS), which delivers distributed intelligence throughout
the network and enables a wide range of value-added applications including Brocade Advanced
Web Tools and Brocade Zoning. Optional Fabric Services include: Adaptive Networking with QoS,
Brocade Extended Fabrics, Brocade Enhanced Group Management, Brocade Fabric Watch, ISL
Trunking, Integrated Routing, and End-to-End Performance Monitoring (APM).
Port-to-port latency minimized to 700 nanoseconds through the use of cut-through frame routing
at 8 Gbps.
Extensive diagnostics and system monitoring capabilities, which enhance high Reliability,
Availability, and Serviceability (RAS).
The Brocade EZSwitchSetup wizard, which makes SAN configuration a three-step point-and click
task.
