![]() ![]() Brocade Network Advisor: Provides comprehensive management of data center fabrics, including configuration, monitoring, and management of Brocade backbones, switches, and adaptersĮmerging and evolving critical workloads and higher density virtualization are continuing to push the limits of SAN infrastructure.Diagnostic Ports (D_Ports): Help identify and isolate optics and cable problems, reducing fabric deployment and diagnostic times.Dynamic Fabric Provisioning: Combines Brocade backbone and adapter technology to reduce or eliminate the need to reconfigure zoning and Logical Unit Number (LUN) masking when adding or replacing servers.Several technologies support these capabilities, including: The Brocade DCX 8510 helps reduce operating costs through simpler server provisioning and change management, advanced cable and optics diagnostics, and comprehensive management. Brocade DCX 8510 advanced diagnostics, monitoring, and management reduce end-to-end SAN management complexities and costs. Simplified Deployment and Centralized ManagementĪutomating and simplifying SAN management enables data centers to quickly adapt to change and overcome disruptions in a private cloud infrastructure. ![]() The integrated metro connectivity includes in-flight compression and encryption to optimize bandwidth and minimize the risk of unauthorized access. The Brocade DCX 8510 family enables high-speed replication and backup solutions over metro or WAN links with native Fibre Channel (10/16 Gbps) and optional FCIP (1/10 GbE) extension support. Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones include integrated metro and global SAN extension that provides application agility and flexible business continuity and disaster recovery solutions. Optimized Data Center Connectivity Over DistanceĬonnecting distributed data centers enables data mobility for advanced data protection solutions. ![]() This maximizes overall port density in the lowest amount of rack space. These high-density chassis topologies reduce inter-switch cabling by 75 percent and free up to 33 percent of ports for server and storage. ICLs enable scalable core-edge and active-active mesh chassis topologies. New optical Inter-Chassis Links (ICLs) can connect up to 10 Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones, enabling flatter, faster, and simpler fabrics that increase consolidation while reducing network complexity and costs. Networks are evolving in order to adapt to rapid growth and change in the server and storage infrastructure. To help minimize downtime costs, Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones build upon years of innovation and leverage the core technology of Brocade systems performing at greater than 99.999 percent uptime in the world's most demanding data centers. ![]() The Brocade DCX 8510 family supports 2, 4, 8, 10, and 16 Gbps Fibre Channel, FICON, and 1/10 Gbps Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP). Built for midsize networks, the 8U Brocade DCX 8510-4 has four horizontal blade slots to provide up to 192 16 Gbps Fibre Channel ports. Built for large enterprise networks, the 14U Brocade DCX 8510-8 has eight vertical blade slots to provide up to 384 16 Gbps Fibre Channel ports. In addition, they can consolidate their Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructures to simplify management and reduce operating costs.įeatures: Maximum Flexibility and Reliabilityīrocade DCX 8510 Backbones are available in two modular form factors. This enables organizations to continue leveraging their existing IT investments as they grow their businesses. The introduction of Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones with 16 Gbps Fibre Channel delivers a new level of scalability and advanced capabilities to this robust, reliable, and high-performance technology. Fibre Channel, the de facto standard for storage networking, is evolving with the data center. Networks need to evolve in order to support the growing demands of highly virtualized environments and private cloud architectures. A Foundation for Private Cloud Storage Networks They are designed to increase business agility while providing non-stop access to information and reducing infrastructure and administrative costs. Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones are the industry’s most powerful Fibre Channel switching infrastructure, providing the most reliable, scalable, high-performance foundation for private cloud storage and highly virtualized environments. ![]()
