The Brocade 4900 switch
An affordable small/mid-size SAN switching solution for organizations that need a high port count and a fabric core option, but not the full capabilities of a director-class fabric core. It also makes a great port-aggregation edge switch.
Brocade, the leading storage networking company, offers a complete line of entry-to-enterprise, core-to-edge network switches and directors. Brocade was the first to deliver 4 Gb/sec products, such as the Brocade 4900 switch and 7500 SAN router.
