PRIMARY FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Performance and Scalability
Today’s enterprise organizations require
cost-effective, exible, and secure solutions
for delivering communication services
on a network architecture that can scale
and evolve to meet their ever-changing
needs. The FastIron LS Series meets these
requirements with wire-speed architecture
that delivers high-throughput for a range of
Ethernet endpoints while assuring QoS for
business critical applications.
For cost-effective and rapid scaling at
the network edge, the FastIron LS can be
upgraded to support the Brocade IronStack
technology, which allows stacking up to
eight units that act as a logical chassis. The
FastIron LS IronStack system supports 40-
Gbps switching capacity between stacked
units providing a high-capacity interconnect
across the stack. FastIron LS IronStack
supports stacking over copper and ber
cables. This provides for exible stack
congurations in which stacked units can
be separated by more than several hundred
meters of ber. The FastIron LS Series
makes it easy to deploy a cost-effective,
high-performance solution today that can be
upgraded to support 10-GbE and stacking as
needed to scale the intelligent edge.
The FastIron LS switches support two types
of single port 10-Gigabit Ethernet pluggable
modules, the FLS-1XGC and the FLS-1XG.
The FLS-1XGC supports a CX4 connector
providing a cost-effective, high performance
10-Gigabit Ethernet solution for inter-switch
or server-to-switch connectivity. The FLS-1XG
supports a small form factor pluggable XFP
transceiver. Supported XFP transceivers
include SR, LR, ER, ZR, and ZRD optics
supporting ber lengths up to 80 Km.
