Brocade 5300
Fibre Channel switch
Up to 80 ports
Pages 3
The Brocade® 5300 is an 8 Gb/sec fibre channel switch which provides the highest performance, highest availability,
scalability and best investment protection to meet the needs of today´s consolidated virtual data center. With a flexible
architecture that supports 1, 2, 4 and 8 Gbit/sec technology with 48, 64, or 80 ports, the Brocade 5300 provides an
affordable high-port-count, single-domain solution.
A Flexible, Easy-to-Use Switch for a Variety of SAN
Environments
As the value and volume of business data continue to rise,
organizations need technology solutions that are easy to
implement and manage, and that can grow and change with
minimal disruption. The Brocade® 5300 Switch is designed to
consolidate connectivity in rapidly growing mission-critical
environments - combining 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/sec technology
in configurations of 48, 64, or 80 ports in an efficiently
designed 2U package. The combination of density,
performance, and “pay-as-you-grow” scalability increases
server and storage utilization while reducing complexity for
virtualized servers and storage.
INDUSTRY-LEADING PERFORMANCE SUPERIOR
PERFORMANCE AND DENSITY
To support mission-critical environments, the Brocade 5300
features a non-blocking architecture with as many as 80 ports
concurrently active at 8 Gbit/sec full duplex with no oversubscription. It also supports new virtualization technologies
that are driving efficiency and flexibility benefits. For example,
organizations that have deployed virtual server environments
require higher levels of connectivity for consolidation and
higher levels of performance to cost-effectively meet the
demands of virtual data centers.
The density of the Brocade 5300 uniquely enables fan-o ut
from the core of the data center fabric with less than half the
number of switch devices to manage compared to traditional
32- or 40-port edge switches.
When deployed as a core SAN fabric switch, the 80-port
Brocade 5300 provides a single-switch core footprint that is
ideal for SAN fan-out using lower-density Brocade switches.
This single-domain solution enables highly efficient server and
storage consolidation, reducing the total number of domains
to manage in the fabric.
ENTERPRISE-CLASS AVAILABILITY FOR BUSINESS
CONTINUANCE
The Brocade 5300 provides a reliable SAN foundation by
employing enterprise-class availability features such as hotswappable, redundant, and integrated fan and power supply
assemblies. Moreover, hot code load and activation help
maximize application uptime with faster system upgrades and
maintenance to reduce the dependency on scheduled
outages. Combined with a wide range of diagnostic and
monitoring functions, these capabilities help provide a highly
available SAN environment.
SUPERIOR ROI AND INVESTMENT PROTECTION
The Brocade 5300 enables organizations to use 4 Gbit/sec
SFPs today and upgrade to 8 Gbit/sec SFPs, so they can fully
leverage their existing IT resources and seamlessly
incorporate new capabilities as necessary. To protect
investments in operational training and management,
organizations can manage the Brocade 5300 with existing
applications such as Brocade Enterprise Fabric Connectivity
Manager (EFCM) and Brocade Fabric Manager.
