The Brocade 5300 is an 8 Gbps Fibre Channel switch that provides superior performance and port density for the most demanding SAN environments. With up to 80 ports in an efficient 2U design, it is an ideal solution for enabling greater data center consolidation and virtualization throughout the enterprise.

AN ENTERPRISE SWITCH FOR THE MOST DEMANDING ENVIRONMENTS

The Brocade 5300 Switch combines 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbps technology in configurations of 48, 64, or 80 ports in an efficient 2U design. The combination of port density, performance, and "pay-as-you-grow" scalability enables greater server and storage utilization while reducing complexity for virtualized data centers.

The evolutionary design makes it very efficient in regard to power, cooling, and rack density--enabling medium- and large-scale server and storage consolidation for greater cost savings and manageability. The Brocade 5300 also includes Adaptive Networking capabilities to provide the highest service levels for mission-critical data center applications.
