Brocade VDX 6740T XBR-VDX6740T-56-1G-DC-R

Built for cloud, hosting and enterprise data center fabrics, the Brocade VDX 6740T (XBR-VDX6740T-56-1G-DC-R) is a switch from Brocade, part of the VDX Series. It belongs to a family built for data center fabric switching.

Cabled connections avoid the interference and congestion that can affect wireless networks. Because it follows Ethernet standards, it works alongside equipment from other manufacturers.

Full management capabilities let your IT team tune performance, enforce policies and monitor every port. Management is based on Brocade Network OS, a platform familiar to network engineers. Good labeling and port documentation pay off when devices are moved or replaced. Reliable switching underpins every connected service, from email and file sharing to voice and video. A switch forwards traffic only to the port where the destination device is connected, which reduces unnecessary network load. Plan which ports will serve end devices and which will act as uplinks to keep cabling tidy and future changes simple. Regular firmware updates, where available, help keep the switch secure and stable.

The XBR-VDX6740T-56-1G-DC-R lets you grow the network in steps rather than replacing everything at once. Install it in a well-ventilated location so it keeps operating reliably over the long term. Leaf-spine fabrics use switches like this to connect servers and feed high-speed links to the spine. A dedicated switch gives your network a central, organized connection point for wired devices. A UPS on the network rack keeps connections alive through short power outages. Order the XBR-VDX6740T-56-1G-DC-R today to add Brocade switching to your infrastructure.
