USED BROCADE M2640 SAN ROUTER


Brocade M2640 SAN Router

The Brocade M2640 SAN Router delivers multi-vendor, multi-protocol connectivity within the data center and to the metro area and beyond. The Brocade M2640 supports industry standard protocols such as iSCSI, iFCP and E_Port and can be used for SAN island integration, business continuance/disaster recovery planning, storage consolidation, remote tape vaulting, content distribution and iSCSI access to Fibre Channel storage.

The Brocade M2640 can connect to IP backbones, FC fabrics and a wide variety of end systems, including FC, NAS and iSCSI initiators. This SAN router enables tiered storage infrastructures, which map the cost/reliability of the storage resource to the criticality of the application’s data. And it delivers a unique degree of fault isolation within these complex tiered environments, protecting the integrity of your data.

SAN routing lets you build very large, stable FC fabrics - faults in one part of the network do not impact traffic in other parts. With the Brocade patent-pending Fast Write technology and wire-speed operation, the Brocade M2640 is uniquely able to connect very distant data centers at a sustained wire-speed throughput to enable secure disaster recovery scenarios. Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities like Adaptive Rate Limiting, VLAN tagging and bandwidth management enable effective management and optimized performance for all data flows and traffic types in a shared network infrastructure, driving significant cost savings. The same ports on the Brocade M2640 can also concurrently support iSCSI access to FC storage.
