Overview
 Industry-leading
Used Brocade Silkworm fabric switches connect
servers and storage devices throughout Fibre Channel SANs. The
resulting high-speed, robust storage networks enable organizations
to access and share data in a high-performance, manageable, and
scalable manner. Used Silkworm switches enable organizations to
deploy 1, 2, and 4 Gbit/sec SAN environments with highly scalable
core-to-edge configurations. Used Silkworm switch models range from
8 ports to 32 ports and can function as standalone or edge switches,
depending upon specific SAN requirements.
Used Brocade embedded fibre channel switches can be added to other
popular blade server products. Configurations are appropriate for
applications ranging from large data centers to workgroup SANs. They
offer greatly reduced implementation costs as compared to a purely
external SANs with embedded Fibre Channel pass-through modules. Used
Silkworm switches meet high-availability requirements with
redundant, hot-pluggable components, hot code activation, automatic
path rerouting, and extensive diagnostics.
To meet the need for scalable and affordable SAN solutions, Used
Silkworm switches provide seamless migration path all the way up to
4 Gbit/sec connectivity. From the 8-port used Silkworm 3250 to the
32-port used Silkworm 4100, organizations can experience high
performance by using used Brocade ISL Trunking to achieve 8 Gbit/sec
of data throughput (up to 32 Gbit/sec total throughput with used
Silkworm 4100). As you can see, used Silkworm switches are designed for easy
deployment, management, and maintenance. For dual-fabric SAN
environments, they support the highest levels of availability,
reliability, and scalability.
Used Silkworm switches provide low-cost solutions for DAS-to-SAN
migration, small SAN islands, NAS back ends, and the edge of
core-to-edge enterprise SANs. As a result, these switches are ideal
as standalone departmental SANs or as high-performance edge switches
in large enterprise SANs.
