Ventilation Switch Architecture These switches employ a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. Network Management Options These switches contain a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance” monitoring of network and port status. They also include a management agent that allows you to

1 Description of Hardware Description of Hardware The Brocade 6910 switches consist of two model types, one hardened for extended temperature range environments, the other non-hardened for standard temperature range environments: • Standard temperature range switches for 0 to +50 °C: • BR-6910-EA-AC • BR-6910-EA-DC • Extended temperature range switches for -40 to +65 °C: • BR-6910-EA-H-AC • BR-6910-EA-H-DC SFP Slots The 12 Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots are shared with

Description of Hardware 1 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports The switches contain 12 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. Because all of the RJ-45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See “1000BASE-T Pin Assignments” on page 29.) Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (ha
