Tech Specs

Fibre Channel ports 96 SFP+ ports capable of operating at 4/8/10/16/32 Gbit/s Fibre Channel auto-sensing speeds;
8 QSFP ports capable of operating at 4×32 / 4×16 / 4×8 / 4×4 Gbit/s Fibre Channel speeds.
Offers a base configuration of 48 ports, two 24-port SFP+ PoD (Ports on Demand), and one 32-port QSFP PoD. The switch has a total of eight 32 Gbit/s QSPF ports. This allows users to grow from 48 ports to 128 ports. Supports F/E/EX_Port and D_Port types on the SFP+ ports and only F/E/EX_Port and D_Port types on the QSFP ports with Brocade Fabric OS® (FOS) v8.2.0.
Scalability Full-fabric architecture with a maximum of 239 switches
Certified maximum Single fabric: 56 domains, 7 hops
MPR fabric: 19 hops
Performance Fibre Channel: 4.25 Gbit/s line speed, full duplex; 8.5 Gbit/s line speed, full duplex; 10.53 Gbit/s line speed, full duplex; 14.025 Gbit/s line speed, full duplex; 28.05 Gbit/s, full duplex; 112.2 Gbit/s, full duplex; auto-sensing of 4/8/10/16/32 Gbit/s port speeds and capable of supporting 128 Gbit/s speeds; 10 Gbit/s optionally programmable to fixed port speed. Auto-sensing of 4×32 / 4×16 / 4×8 / 4×4 Gbit/s speeds on the QSFP ports with Brocade FOS v8.2.0.
ISL trunking Frame-based trunking with up to eight 32 Gbit/s connections between a pair of switches combined to form a single logical ISL with a speed of up to 256 Gbit/s (512 Gbit/s full duplex) per ISL trunk. Exchange-based load balancing across ISLs with DPS included in Brocade FOS. On the QSFP ports 256 Gbit/s trunks are supported by trunking 2× (4×32 Gbit/s) QSFP ports.
Aggregate bandwidth 4 Tbit/s
Maximum fabric latency Latency for locally switched ports is 780 ns (including FEC); compression is 1 μs per node
Maximum frame size 2,112-byte payload
Frame buffers 15K frame buffers with dynamic buffer sharing capability across ports
Classes of service Class 2, Class 3, Class F (inter-switch frames)
Port types D_Port (ClearLink Diagnostic Port), E_Port, EX_Port, F_Port, AE_Port, optional port-type control
Data traffic types Fabric switches supporting unicast
Media types Hot-pluggable, industry-standard Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+), LC connector; Short-Wave Laser (SWL), Long-Wave Laser (LWL); Extended Long-Wave Laser (ELWL); distance depends on fiber optic cable and port speed. Supports SFP+ (32/16/8 Gbit/s), SFP+ (16/8/4 Gbit/s), SFP+ 10 Gbit/s optical transceivers, 4×32 Gbit/s QSFP SWL and 4×16 Gbit/s QSFP SWL optical transceivers. Note: 32 Gbit/s ELWL is currently not supported with Brocade FOS v8.2.0 but is planned for future support.
