What is the switching and stacking capacity?

Switching capacity reaches up to 640 Gbps, with stacking for up to 12 switches in a single stack. This enables scalable, high-performance deployments with 1,190 Mpps forwarding and low-latency cut-through architecture for data centers.

Does it support Layer 3 routing features?

Yes, it handles 8,000 IPv4 routes, 2,000 IPv6 routes, 64,000 ARP entries, and 4,000 IGMP groups. Advanced software includes BGP, VRRPe, and MCT at no extra cost on Brocade NOS.

What power supplies are provided?

No power supplies or fan units are included; they must be ordered separately. Optional dual 250W AC power supplies provide redundancy, with maximum consumption around 230W for efficient operation.

What is the form factor and environmental specs?

It's a 1RU fixed rack-mountable switch operating from 0 to 40°C. Supports front-to-back or reversible airflow options when PSUs and fans are added, ensuring reliable cooling in standard data center environments.

What advanced software features are available?

Runs Brocade Network Operating System with Advanced (ADV) license, providing enterprise-grade features like robust IPv6, Multi-Chassis Trunking, and 10,220-byte frame support without additional licensing costs.
