Hardware features

The Brocade G610 switch oers the following features and capabilities:

• Up to 24 auto-sensing ports supporting 32-Gbps SFP+ technology in a single domain.

• Dynamic Ports on Demand (Dynamic-POD) scaling from a base conguration of 8 ports to 24 ports (two 8-port SFP+ POD).

• 4-, 8-, 16-, and 32-Gbps auto-sensing Fibre Channel switch ports. – A 32-Gbps optical transceiver can auto-negotiate to 32 Gbps, 16 Gbps, or 8 Gbps.

– A 16-Gbps optical transceiver can auto-negotiate to 16 Gbps, 8 Gbps, or 4 Gbps.

NOTE

The port speed is determined by the maximum speed supported by the optical transceivers at the either end of the link.

• Universal ports self-congure as a E_Ports, F_Ports, M_Ports, or D_Ports. – A Diagnostic Port (D_Port) provides diagnostics, troubleshooting, and verication services for the physical media.

• One built-in xed power supply unit (not a FRU) with a port-side power inlet.

• Four integrated fans (no fan FRUs) for cooling the system. This allows a single fan failure and permits the switch to continue to function properly if a fan fails. Only nonport-side intake airow for cooling is supported.

– If one fan fails and the temperature is less than 56C, the fans run at high speed. If the temperatures increases more than

56C, a critical temperature warning is displayed and the device shuts down in two minutes.

– If two fans fail and the temperature is less than 55C, the fans run at high speed. If the temperature increases more than

55C, a critical temperature warning is displayed and the device shuts down in two minutes.

– If the third fans fails, a warning is displayed and the device is immediately shut down.

• Hardware-enabled input and output (I/O) latency statistics collection.

• Hardware-enabled VM support.

• 1U chassis that can be installed as a standalone unit or mounted in a standard Electronic Industries Association (EIA) 48.26cm (19 inches) cabinet or rack.

• Support for Brocade small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) optical transceivers in any combination of Short Wavelength (SWL), Long Wavelength (LWL), or Extended Long Wavelength (ELWL) optical media.

• Extended distance Fibre Channel to support long distance native FC connectivity.

• Port-to-port latency is minimized to 900 nanoseconds including FEC using cut-through frame switching at 32 Gbps.

• A dual-core T1022E processor operating at 1.2 GHz delivers high performance, scalability, and advanced Fabric Vision functionality.

Brocade G610 Hardware Installation Guide 53-1004408-08 11

License options

• One 1000/100/10 Mbps RJ45 connector Ethernet port for management. In conjunction with EZSwitchSetup, this port supports switch IP address discovery and conguration, eliminating the need to attach a serial cable to congure the switch IP address.

• A RS-232 3-wire (Tx, Rx, and Gnd) universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) serial port to BMC adapter with a RJ-45 connector for debugging initial switch setup (if not using EZSwitchSetup) and factory default restoration is included with the switch. Although there are LEDs in the adapter, they are not used.

• An internal e-USB module with 2 GB of persistent storage. This provides increased serviceability, and error logging functionality by facilitating easier rmware upgrades and downloads of the system log les.

• One external USB connector.

• 24 hot-pluggable SFP+ optical transceiver slots.

• 24 bicolor (green/amber) LEDs to indicate the status for each port.

• One green LED to indicate valid system power.

• One bicolor (green/amber) LED to indicate the system status.

• Two Ethernet LEDs: one bicolor (green/amber) LED to indicate link speed (1000/100/10 Mbps) and one green LED to indicate trac activity.

• A Serial EEPROM for switch identication.

• Real-time fan monitoring.

• Real-time digital thermometers for temperature monitoring.

• Real-time clock (RTC) with battery.

License options

The Brocade G610 uses a capacity-based Dynamic Ports on Demand (POD) license method and can be purchased with 8, 16, or 24 licensed ports. The rst eight ports (0-7) are enabled by default. To enable the remaining sixteen ports, you need to purchase and install two 8-port POD license keys. Refer to the Brocade Fabric OS Software Licensing Guide for more details.
