Overview

The Brocade SI-4XG is a 4-port 10 GbE XFP ServerIron chassis line card module designed to enhance the performance and scalability of data center networks. This module is engineered to support high-density applications, offering a comprehensive solution for network traffic management, application delivery, and security. At the core of the SI-4XG are its impressive hardware specifications. The module can support up to 16 application cores and has a maximum system memory of 32 GB, ensuring smooth handling of intensive workloads. It is capable of processing up to 14,000,000 DNS queries per second in a fast stateless manner, demonstrating its efficiency in managing high volumes of DNS requests. For handling HTTP traffic, the SI-4XG excels with up to 1,600,000 Layer 4 connections per second for HTTP 1.0 and 16,000,000 Layer 4 transactions per second for HTTP 1.1. This capability is matched by its Layer 4 and Layer 7 aggregate throughput, both rated at 70 Gbps, which facilitates the rapid transmission of data across the network. Additionally, the module can support up to 4096 Virtual IPs (VIPs), enabling flexible and scalable network configurations. Physical specifications include dimensions of 7.0” h × 17.5” w × 17.5” d (17.7 cm × 44.3 cm × 44.5 cm) and a weight of 54.0 lbs (24.5 kg) when fully loaded. It requires a maximum power supply of 952 watts and is designed to fit in a 19-inch universal EIA (Telco) rack. The connectivity options are diverse, featuring: - 121 Gbps copper (RJ45) - 121 Gbps fibre (SFP) - 410 Gbps fibre (XFP) Environmental conditions are also taken into consideration, with operating temperatures ranging from 0ºC /32ºF to 40ºC/104ºF and storage temperatures from –25ºC/–9ºF to 70ºC /158ºF. Humidity levels are maintained at 5% to 90% for operating conditions and 5% to 95% for storage, both relative and non-condensing. The SI-4XG is designed to operate at altitudes up to 6600 ft. (2012 m) and can be stored at up to 15,000 ft. (4500 m). A key feature of the SI-4XG is its hardware-based DDoS protection, capable of handling up to 60,000,000 packets per second.
