Product Description
The Brocade BR-7800F-0001 is a high-performance SAN Extension Switch from the Brocade 7800 series, designed to extend Storage Area Network (SAN) connectivity across IP networks. This switch is a key component for implementing disaster recovery, data replication, and business continuity strategies by enabling SANs to span geographically dispersed data centers. This model offers a robust port configuration, including 16 standard 8Gbps Fibre Channel ports and an additional 4 x 8Gbps Fibre Channel ports, providing ample connectivity for local storage devices and servers. The defining feature for SAN extension is its 2 x FCIP (Fibre Channel over IP) Active 8Gbps ports. These ports allow Fibre Channel traffic to be encapsulated within IP packets, enabling reliable and efficient transmission over standard IP networks, thus overcoming the distance limitations of native Fibre Channel. The Brocade BR-7800F-0001 is engineered to deliver high throughput and low latency for critical data services. It supports advanced features such as WAN optimization, including compression and encryption, to enhance performance and security over long-distance links. This switch is essential for enterprises seeking to build resilient, scalable, and geographically distributed storage infrastructures, ensuring data availability and accessibility across multiple locations.
