Brocade G710 Switch

Affordable Gen 7 SAN switch for the on-demand data center

  • Description
  • Product Parameters

Overview

Purpose-built for small to mid-sized businesses, the Brocade G710 provides low-cost access to Gen 7 Fibre Channel technology. The G710 is an affordable Gen 7 entry point that starts at just eight ports, providing organizations both high-performance, secure access to industry-leading storage technology, and the ability to start small and scale on demand, up to 24 ports, to support their growing environments.
 
In today’s data-driven world, where both the value and protection of data are paramount, IT organizations face increasing pressure to ensure their systems are secure, reliable, and efficient. The challenge lies not only in securing continuous, non-stop access to data but also in optimizing critical applications and resources to improve productivity.To address these demands, a simple and always-on infrastructure is essential—one that supports high throughput and low-latency requirements for critical applications. Brocade® Gen 7 Fibre Channel is key to helping organizations meet these challenges. By integrating this robust, high-performance network into their storage ecosystem, small and mid-sized businesses can effectively handle large volumes of data with minimal overhead. This enables faster decision making, improved operational efficiency, and a competitive edge, all without the complexity or cost typically associated with large enterprise-level solutions.

Highlights

• Provides an affordable entry point for Brocade Gen 7 Fibre Channel technology.
• Scales from 8 ports up to 24 ports for on-demand flexibility.
• Leverages industry-leading reliability and an unprecedented lifetime warranty.
• Accelerates critical workloads with 64G links.
• Maximizes the performance of storage with 50% lower switching latency than Gen 6.
• Automates repetitive tasks to simplify management, save time, and eliminate human error.
• Safeguards mission-critical workloads from vulnerabilities with integrated Gen 7 security features.
