Brocade G620 Switch
Scale fast, accelerate data access, achieve operational efficiency

Take advantage of lightning-fast flash storage networking technology and adapt quickly to dynamic business demands with the Brocade G620 Switch. This powerful Gen 6 Fibre Channel switch shatters application performance barriers and simplifies scale-out network architectures—in an enviably small footprint. And with built-in instrumentation, you gain greater insight and control to reduce cost, management complexity, and risk.

Breakthrough performance: Get the performance you need to support critical business applications and the most from your investment in solid state storage technology.

Increased scalability: Reduce operating costs and management complexity by simplifying scale-out architectures—all in a 1U form factor.

Operational stability: Reduce risk with the industry’s first built-in metrics. Achieve greater control and operational insights to quickly identify issues and easily meet or crush SLAs.
