Brocade FC32-48 32gb 48 Port FC Blade for X6-4 or X6-8 Director
Brocade FC32-48 Fibre Channel Device Port Blade with 48x 32 Gbps SFP+ PORTS
Product Description: Designed to support storage growth, demanding workloads, and data center consolidation, the Brocade FC32-64 Port Blade delivers unmatched 32 Gb/s performance, industry-leading port density, and multiprotocol flexibility. It can effectively scale the Brocade X6 Director to build high-density SAN fabrics that maximize productivity and increase the efficiency of storage investments. By combining Brocade’s robust Gen 6 capabilities with multiprotocol flexibility and enhanced latency monitoring of NVMe over Fibre Channel traffic, the Brocade FC32-64 Port Blade enables a seamless transition to the all-flash data center and drives IT innovation.
With the Brocade FC32-48 highdensity port blade, the Brocade X6 Director can now scale even further—up to 512 ports—offering 33% more device ports while increasing total system bandwidth up to 20 Tb/s. This blade provides 64 Fibre Channel ports in an elegant, high-density form factor designed with Q-Flex connections,enabling administrators to simplify cabling infrastructure.
| Main features | Systems Architecture |
| Fibre Channel performance | Fibre Channel: 4.25 Gb/s line speed, full duplex; 8.5 Gb/s line speed, full duplex; 14.025 Gb/s line speed, full duplex; 28.05 Gb/s line speed, full duplex; auto-sensing of 4, 8, 16, and 32 Gb/s port speeds. Support for 4 Gb/s and 8 Gb/s speeds requires the use of a 16 Gb/s QSFP transceiver. |
| FCoE connectivity | 10GbE, 25GbE, or 40GbE FCoE speeds. Support for 10GbE, 25GbE, and 40GbE speeds requires the use of the appropriate QSFP transceiver. |
| Switch latency | Locally switched port latency is <780 ns with Forward Error Correction (FEC) (enabled by default); blade-to-blade latency is 2.6 µs |
| Fibre Channel ports | Brocade X6-4: Up to 192 32-Gbps ports, universal (F_Port, E_Port, EX_Port, M_Port, D_Port, SIM Port, FICON) |
| Cables supported | QSFP (MTP/MPO) to SFP+ (LC) break-out cables and QSFP (MTP/MPO) to QSFP (MTP/MPO) standard cables. 2 km 4×32 Gb/s QSFP (requires QSFP-to-QSFP SMF LC cable). |
| Diagnostics | IO Insight for I/O monitoring of Fibre Channel and NVMe over Fibre Channel traffic; ClearLink optics and cable diagnostics, including electrical/optical loopback, link traffic/latency/distance; built-in flow generator; POST and embedded online/offline diagnostics, including environmental monitoring, FCping and Pathinfo (FC traceroute), flow mirroring, frame viewer, non-disruptive daemon restart, optics health monitoring, power monitoring, RAStrace logging, and Rolling Reboot Detection (RRD) |
| Temperature | Operating: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) Non-operating: −40°C to 70°C (−40°F to 158°F) |
| Maximum power | Typical power consumption: 203 watts when fully populated with 16 standard 4×32 Gb/s SWL QSFPs Maximum power consumption: 387 watts maximum power consumption when fully populated with 16 standard 32 Gb/s SWL QSFPs |
