Brocade ICX6650-48-E-ADV Network Switch Networking

Today’s campus environments are migrating to 10/40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) as enterprises rapidly adopt applications such as high-definition video for collaboration, and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) which drive the need for resilient, high-bandwidth enterprise access networks. To meet these challenges, today’s campus network solutions must provide a broad set of capabilities—including higher levels of performance, reliability, security, and Quality of Service (QoS)—as well as low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).The Brocade ICX 6650 has a rich campus feature set, including advanced Layer 3 functionality, making it the lead campus aggregation and core switch offering in Brocade ICX family of Ethernet switches for Campus LAN. In addition to a rich Layer 3 feature set, the Brocade ICX 6650 also supports Multi-Chassis Trunking (MCT) and is an integral part of the Brocade HyperEdge Architecture for campus LAN.

Today’s data centers are also expanding as the demand for data and storage continues to grow exponentially. Moreover, requirements such as application convergence, non-stop operation, scalability, high availability, and power efficiency are placing even greater demands on the network infrastructure.

Part of the Brocade ICX family of Ethernet switches for campus LAN and classic Ethernet data center environments, the Brocade ICX 6650 Switch is a 1RU high-performance, high-availability, and high-density 10/40 GbE that meets the needs of business-sensitive campus deployments and data center environments. With industry-leading price/performance and a low-latency, cut-through, and non-blocking architecture, the Brocade ICX 6650 provides a cost-effective and robust solution for the most demanding deployments.
