Brocade VDX 8770 Modular Ethernet Fabric Switch 1/10/40/100 GbE
The Brocade VDX 8770 Switch is a highly scalable, low-latency, 1/10/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) modular switch. Designed to easily scale out Brocade VCS fabrics, the Brocade VDX 8770 Switch brings new levels of performance to VCS fabric deployments.
Designed to scale out Brocade VCS fabrics, the Brocade VDX 8770 Switch supports complex, highly dynamic environments with dense virtualization and extensive automation requirements. The Brocade VDX 8770 is a highly scalable, low-latency 1/10/40/100 GbE modular switch, available in both 8U four-slot and 15U eight-slot versions.
The Brocade VDX 8770 Features:
- Simplifies and automates network architectures to enable elastic cloud networking with Brocade VCS Fabric technology
- Manages an entire multitenant Brocade VCS fabric as a single switch through Brocade VCS Logical Chassis, with REST APIs to allow higher-level management frameworks
- Provides efficiently load-balanced multipathing at Layers 1, 2, and 3, and multiple active Layer 3 gateways
- Delivers 1/10/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) wire-speed switching with auto-trunking Inter-Switch Links (ISLs) for non-disruptive scaling
- Enables connectivity for over 1,000 server ports with scale-out fabrics, 10,000 ports with multifabrics, and 100,000 ports using multifabrics with overlays
- Simplifies Virtual Machine (VM) mobility and management with automated, dynamic port profile configuration and migration
- Is designed to support Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technologies within data, control, and management planes
