HIGHLIGHTS • Delivers full 8 Gbit/sec 1:1 performance for up to 80 ports in a single-domain, optimized 2U form factor • Offers best-in-class port density and scalability for enterprise SAN switches along with redundant, hot-pluggable components and non-disruptive software upgrades • Protects existing device investments with auto-sensing 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/sec capabilities and native operation with Brocade and Brocade M-Series fabrics • Features Ports on Demand capabilities for fast, easy, and cost-effective scalability from 48 to 80 ports in 16-port increments • Provides Adaptive Networking services such as Quality of Service (QoS) to help optimize application performance in consolidated, virtual environments • Supports Fibre Channel Integrated Routing for selective device sharing while maintaining remote fabric isolation for higher levels of scalability and fault isolation • Improves energy efficiency by combining increased bandwidth with lower power consumption An Industry-Leading Switch for Virtualized Data Centers 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. Used at the fabric core or at the edge of a tiered core-to-edge infrastructure, the Brocade 5300 operates seamlessly with existing Brocade switches through native E_Port connectivity into Brocade Fabric OS ® (FOS) or M-Enterprise OS (M-EOS)* BROCADE 5300 SwITCh STORAGE AREA NETWORK DATA ShEET * Brocade M-EOS fabrics are McDATA switches and directors running McDATA Enterprise OS in McDATA Fabric mode or McDATA Open Fabric mode. environments. The evolutionary design makes it very efficient in power, cooling, and rack density to help enable medium- and large-scale server and storage consolidation. The Brocade 5300 also includes Adaptive Networking capabilities to more efficiently manage resources in highly consolidated environments while providing the highest service levels to data center applications. 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 over-subscription—providing an aggregate bandwidth of 1360 Gbit/sec. It also supports new virtualization technologies that are driving efficiency and flexibility benefits. For example, organizations that Third-party information provided to you courtesy of Dell
