Hardware features
The Brocade G630 offers the following features and capabilities:
•
Up to 96 auto-sensing ports supporting high-performance 32-Gbps SFP+ ports technology in a single domain with NVMe
support on egress-only.
•
Up to eight auto-sensing 128-Gbps (4 x 32-Gbps) QSFP ports to connect to the QSFP ports of other devices or F_Ports.
•
Dynamic Ports on Demand (Dynamic-POD) scaling from a base configuration of 48 ports to 128 ports (two 24-port SFP+
PODs and one 32-port QSFP POD).
•
4-, 8-, 16-, and 32-Gbps auto-sensing Fibre Channel switch and router ports.
–
A 32-Gbps optical transceiver can auto-negotiate to 32 Gbps, 16 Gbps, or 8 Gbps.
–
A 16-Gbps optical transceiver can auto-negotiate to 16 Gbps, 8 Gbps, or 4 Gbps.
–
A 10-Gbps FC optical transceiver can support 10 Gbps speed.
NOTE
The port speed is determined by the maximum speed supported by the optical transceiver at the other end of the link.
•
Universal ports self-configure as a E_Ports, F_Ports, or D_Ports. EX_Ports can be activated on a per-port basis with the
optional Integrated Routing license.
–
Diagnostic D_Port mode provides diagnostics, troubleshooting, and verification services for the physical media.
•
Up to 384 Gbps of combined in-flight data encryption/decryption and 192 Gbps of combined in-flight compression/
decompression capabilities per switch.
•
Dynamic buffer sharing
•
Support for nonport-side intake or nonport-side exhaust airflow for cooling.
•
Hardware-enabled input and output (I/O) latency statistics collection.
•
Hardware-enabled VM support.
•
Brocade small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) optical transceivers support any combination of Short Wavelength (SWL),
Long Wavelength (LWL) or Extended Long Wavelength (ELWL) optical media among the switch ports.
•
Extended distance Fibre Channel to support long distance native FC connectivity.
•
Port-to-port latency is minimized to 900 nanoseconds (including FEC) by using cut-through frame switching at 32 Gbps.
•
High performance T1042E processor with four cores operating at 1.5 GHz delivers high performance, scalability, and
advanced Fabric Vision functionality.
•
One 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 connector Ethernet port for management connection. In conjunction with EZSwitchSetup, this
port supports switch IP address discovery and configuration, eliminating the need to attach a serial cable to configure the switch
IP address.
