The switch is engineered for reliability with 5 fan modules arranged in an N+1 redundant configuration, ensuring uninterrupted operation even in the event of a fan failure. The airflow direction is from front to back, following the non-port-side exhaust design, which aids in maintaining optimal operating temperatures and enhances the switch's performance stability.
Power redundancy is achieved through the inclusion of two hot-swappable power supplies, minimizing downtime and ensuring continuous operation even during power supply failures. This feature is crucial for maintaining network integrity and availability, especially in environments where continuous uptime is critical.
Technical specifications highlight the switch's impressive capabilities:
- Switching capacity of 1.28 Terabits per second
- Forwarding rate of 960 Million packets per second
- MAC address table size of 160,000
These specifications demonstrate the switch's ability to handle large volumes of data efficiently, making it suitable for high-demand network environments.
The switch is designed for easy deployment in standard data center racks, coming with included rack mounts and occupying only 1 Rack Unit (RU), providing a compact solution that saves valuable data center space.
Operating conditions are broad, with the switch functioning optimally in temperatures ranging from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) and capable of operating at altitudes up to 3,048 meters (10,000 feet). Humidity and storage conditions are also accommodating, ensuring the switch's durability and reliability under various environmental conditions.

Product Review
The Brocade BR-VDX6740T-56-1G-F offers a high-density 48-port 1 Gigabit Ethernet configuration, complemented by 4 uplink ports capable of 40 Gigabit Ethernet, which enhances its scalability and interconnectivity for high-demand environments. However, the initial limitation to 1GBASE-T ports, with an upgrade to 10GBASE-T available only through an additional licensing fee, could be a drawback for organizations needing immediate 10G capabilities without extra costs. Another consideration is the lack of included optics and the specific non-port-side exhaust airflow design, which may influence deployment decisions based on rack configuration and cooling strategies.
