Brocade upgrades SDN-Enabled Core Networks
Brocade has unveiled all-new 24-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) module for Brocade MLXe Series routers with the aim to deliver industry-leading density and performance for software-defined networking (SDN) and has the ability to scale up to 768 ports of 10 GbE in a single chassis.
Based on Brocade MaxScale-160 Packet Processor technology with fourth-generation silicon innovation, the new module triples existing 10 GbEdensity. In addition, Brocade also announced some major enhancements to its ADX Application Delivery Switch with the 12.5 software release.
The company also states that the Brocade MLXe router with the new 24-port 10 GbE module is optimized for large-scale service provider "Supercore" networks and Internet data center core applications where high port density, scalable MPLS and deep buffering capabilities are required.
Ken Cheng, Vice-President, Service Provider and Application Delivery Products, Brocade, said, "Network operators are challenged to scale their networks and manage increasing complexity - with more routers, more subnets and massive dynamic flows. The Brocade MLXe Core Router with the new 24-port 10 GbE module and industry-leading SDN technology will enable them to significantly scale their core networks to do more while greatly reducing network complexity and cost."
