Brocade Gen 6 X6-8 chassis with 2 CP blades, 2 32GB core blades, 2 WWN cards, 3 fans with Non-port side intake and Port side exhaust, 3 matching AC PSUs; 0 ports and 0 SFP with Enterprise Bundle SW License installed; Power Cords not included

Extension Blade combined with Brocade Fabric Vision technology enables customers to drive always-on business operations, eliminate
performance bottlenecks, and adapt to the requirements of the digital enterprise.
Always-on business: Hitting your service level agreement (SLA) targets requires network-wide operational stability, maintained
through greater control and insight. Brocade X6 Directors provide both, with extensive automation that includes performance
monitoring, diagnostics, and error recovery.
Breakthrough application performance: Breakthrough 32G performance accelerates application response time by up to 71 percent,
eliminating IO bottlenecks, and unleashes the full performance of flash and next-generation Non-Volatile Memory Express
(NVMe)-based storage.
Increase productivity with automation: Automate and orchestrate repetitive tasks, enable IT organizations to significantly improve
their efficiency, and decrease the risk of operational mistakes to simplify end-to-end management and accelerate operations of
large-scale environments.
Future-ready today: Adapt to evolving requirements requires business agility. Brocade X6 Directors adapt and optimize businesses
with seamless integration into next-generation NVMe over fabrics and future-ready support for Gen 7 Fibre Channel without a
disruptive rip and replace.
