DATA SHEET

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches

The Brocade VDX 6940-36Q is a xed

40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE)-optimized

switch in a 1U form factor. It oers

36 40 GbE QSFP+ ports and can be

deployed as a spine or leaf switch (see

Figure 1). Each 40 GbE port can be

broken out into four independent

10 GbE SFP+ ports, providing a total of

144 10 GbE SFP+ ports. Deployed as

a spine, it provides options to connect

either 40 GbE or 10 GbE uplinks from

leaf switches. By deploying this high-

density, compact switch, data center

administrators can reduce their TCO

through savings on power, space,

and cooling.

In a leaf deployment, 10 GbE and

40 GbE ports can be mixed, oering

exible design options to cost-eectively

support demanding data center and

service provider environments. As

in other Brocade VDX platforms, the

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches

Optimizes Scale-Out

Architecture

Brocade VDX switches are designed

to help organizations stay ahead of

application-driven network change by

enabling agile growth through a scale-

out architecture. This approach oers

three key benets. First, it enables

network expansion as a business grows

over time. Data center administrators

can horizontally scale spine switches as

the number of leaf switches increases.

Second, scale-out architecture also

enables the creation of resilient network

fabrics, eliminating a single point of failure

and potential downtime. Third, and most

important, scale-out network architecture

delivers a compelling economic benet.

Unlike scale-up, a scale-out model

reduces upfront investment. And by using

high-density xed switches, it lowers the

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), reducing

power, cooling, and data center space.

Advanced Features Enable Data Center Transformation

The data center is evolving, driving requirements for infrastructure that

can support dynamic growth in Virtual Machines (VMs), distributed

applications, and Big Data, as well as the transition to cloud-based

computing—without compromising performance. The Brocade® VDX®

6940 and the Brocade VDX family of switches deliver the performance,

exibility, scale, and eciency essential to modern data centers, including

cloud and highly virtualized environments.

eciency and resiliency

•Supports storage environments with

advanced exibility

Brocade VDX 6940-36Q oers a Ports

on Demand (PoD) licensing model.

Brocade VDX 6940-36Q is available

with 24 ports or 36 ports. The 24-port

model oers a lower entry point for

organizations that want to start small

and grow their networks over time. By

installing a software license, organizations

can upgrade their 24-port switch to the

maximum 36-port switch.

Figure 1: The Brocade VDX 6940-36Q Switch

provides 36 40 GbE ports.

The Brocade VDX 6940-144S is a

10 GbE-optimized switch with 40 GbE

or 100 GbE uplinks in a 2U form factor.

It oers 96 native 1/10 GbE SFP/SFP+

ports and 12 40 GbE QSFP+ ports, or

4 100 GbE QSFP28 ports. In addition,

the Brocade VDX 6940-144S provides

exibility for uplinks, 40 GbE or 100 GbE

from leaf switches, and delivers greater

cross-sectional bandwidth for east-west

trac. Purpose-built for scale-out data

centers and service providers, it enables

aggregation of multiple server racks with

a single switch.

With its high density, the Brocade

VDX 6940-144S is an ideal t for

middle-of-row or end-of-row data

center deployments (see Figure 2). By

connecting multiple racks to a single

cut-through switch, this architecture

oers greater cross-sectional bandwidth

for applications. Servers from multiple

racks can be just one hop away from

one another. The compact 2U form

factor saves space, also reducing power

and cooling, resulting in lower TCO.

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches provide

the advanced feature set that data

centers require while delivering the high

performance and low latency virtualized

environments demand. Together with

Brocade data center fabrics, these

switches transform data center networks

to support the New IP by enabling cloud-

based architectures that deliver new levels

of scale, agility, and operational eciency.

These highly automated, software-driven,

and programmable data center fabric

design solutions support a breadth of

network virtualization options and scale

for data center environments ranging from

tens to thousands of servers. Moreover,

they make it easy for organizations to

architect, automate, and integrate current

and future data center technologies

while they transition to a cloud model

that addresses their needs, on their own

timetable and on their terms.

Figure 2: The Brocade VDX 6940-144S

Switch provides 96 1/10 GbE ports and

12 40 GbE or 4 100 GbE ports.

Transforms Networks to Deliver

New Levels of Scale, Agility, and

Operational Eciency

Brocade VDX switches enable

organizations to evolve their data center

networks at their own pace, with full

investment protection. As the foundation

for several data center architectures,

Brocade VDX switches support Brocade

IP fabrics, Brocade VCS® fabrics, as

well as network virtualization, including

controller-based network virtualization

architectures, such as VMware NSX,

and standards-based (BGP-EVPN)

controller-less architectures with Brocade

BGP-EVPN Network Virtualization for

architectural exibility (see Figure 3).

For organizations seeking automated

provisioning capabilities to improve IT

agility, Brocade VDX switches, together

with Brocade VCS Fabric technology,

accelerate time to value through

automated provisioning of network

devices and network virtualization.

Automated service and resource upgrades

further reduce ongoing maintenance time

and costs. High availability is achieved

through non-disruptive In-Service

Software Upgrade (ISSU) and self-healing

fabrics.

fabrics.

Organizations that aim to automate the

entire network lifecycle and integrate with

cross-domain technologies to improve

business agility—but lack sucient

engineering resources or training—can

transform their networks with Brocade

Workow Composer™. Brocade Workow

Composer supports the Brocade VDX

platform, enabling enterprise and cloud

service provider IT organizations to bring

network automation to IT operations

(see Figure 4). Unlike other network

automation solutions that require

proprietary hardware platforms and focus

solely on conguration management,

Brocade Workow Composer provides

turnkey, customizable, or do-it-yourself

network workow automation for

provisioning, validation, troubleshooting,

and remediation of the entire Brocade

VDX platform—while integrating with

tool chains and processes from other IT

domains. Brocade Workow Composer

is powered by StackStorm, an open,

extensible, and microservices-based

framework that leverages the power

of proven DevOps methodologies;

popular open source technologies such

as Puppet, Python, and Mistral; and a

thriving technical community for peer

collaboration and innovation to provide

event-driven, cross-domain workow

automation.

Additionally, Brocade VDX switches oer

programmability and interoperability

options through a PyNOS Library and

YANG model-based REST and Netconf

APIs. Cloud orchestration and control

through OpenStack and OpenDaylight-

based SDN controller support enable

full network integration with compute

and storage resource provisioning and

management.

Meets Today’s Application

Demands with High Performance

and Low Latency

As data centers virtualize more of their

servers and VM density per server

increases, organizations will require

higher bandwidth connectivity to support

the explosion of data and application

processing. With 1/10 GbE and

40 GbE options, Brocade VDX 6940

Switches deliver the high-performance

computing needed to keep up with

the demands of a virtualized data

center, allowing organizations to reduce

network congestion, improve application

performance, and meet the capacity

required by 10 GbE servers. The 40 GbE

and 100 GbE uplinks can easily aggregate

high-bandwidth trac and reduce

bottlenecks that occur when aggregating

multiple 10 GbE or 40 GbE connections,

keeping data center networks working at

peak performance.

In a Brocade VCS fabric, Brocade VDX

6940 Switches also help maximize

network utilization with hardware-based

Brocade ISL Trunking. Organizations

can create a 120 GbE Brocade ISL

trunk by utilizing three 40 GbE ports

or 12 10 GbE ports between Brocade

VDX 6940 Switches. The Brocade ISL

trunk is automatically formed between

two Brocade VDX switches when they

are linked together, allowing trac to be

equally distributed among all ports. This

increases link eciency and limits trac

disruptions, especially during high-trac

times. Also, 40 GbE and 10 GbE trunking

is supported between Brocade VDX

6940, 6740, and 8770 Switches. Refer

to the

Brocade VDX 6940 Hardware

Reference Manual

for details.

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches oer a

unique balance between two conicting

attributes—buer and latency. Niche

products with very high buer often suer

from high latency, and products with

ultra-low latency are not a good t for

data centers with bursty trac. Brocade

VDX 6940 Switches, with a purpose-built

data center chip, excel in optimizing buer

and latency to deliver better application

performance. These switches deliver

800 ns any-port-to-any-port latency. In

addition, they oer an industry-leading

24 MB deep buer. This provides the

buering capacity to handle increases in

trac, especially during peak times when

ports are congested, allowing trac to be

distributed across the ports. Brocade VDX

6940 Switches also feature a single ASIC

Figure 3: Multiple network architectures oer the exibility that can help organizations rapidly adapt to changing business conditions and trac patterns.

commonly found in other switches. This

improves performance since all ports

communicate via the one ASIC.

Cloud and Big Data Environments

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches deliver

optimized buer and latency and high

performance to enable greater cross-

sectional bandwidth for east-west trac—

exactly what cloud workloads demand.

These switches oer the exibility needed

to scale out networks, deliver intelligence

to more eectively manage VM mobility,

as well as provide an SDN-enabled and

programmable infrastructure. In addition,

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches oer an

advanced feature set that non-virtual and

Big Data environments require. With 10,

40, and 100 GbE options for designing

oversubscribed or non-oversubscribed

networks, high throughput, and optimized

buer and latency, the Brocade VDX

6940 is an ideal switch for Big Data

applications. Together with Brocade

data center fabrics, Brocade VDX 6940

Switches can simplify network design and

operations for both cloud and Big Data

network fabrics.

Fits into Any Data Center Design

Brocade VDX 6940-36Q and

6940-144S front access ports are

positioned to enable easy server or switch

connectivity and to simplify cabling.

With a choice of front-to-back or back-

to-front airow, these switches are ideal

for deployments connecting servers,

storage, and other switches, as well as

for providing compatibility for either hot

aisle or cold aisle data center designs.

For the 40 GbE ports that also support

10 GbE connections with breakout cables,

the switches oer the exibility needed

to support a mixed environment as data

centers or service providers transition to

higher bandwidth.

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches are

designed to connect data centers in

multiple ways to meet individual design

requirements. This exible design

provides investment protection, giving

organizations a single switch that can

support varying data center requirements.

The following features help organizations

meet their evolving needs:

•10/40/100 GbE uplinks: The 40 GbE

QSFP+ ports oer the exibility to

expand and interconnect the network

infrastructure intelligently and eciently

while reducing bottlenecks. Brocade

•Ports on Demand: Ports on Demand

(PoD) enables organizations to activate

additional ports. They can purchase

the number of ports that they currently

need and seamlessly scale up later by

simply applying a software license. This

exible and cost-ecient “pay as you

grow” licensing model solves scalability

challenges by allocating IT resources

as needed.

Maximizes Network Availability

with Eciency and Resiliency

Brocade data center fabrics create a

more ecient and resilient network, and

deliver the high performance and high

reliability required by modern data

centers, including cloud and highly

virtualized environments.

Optimizing East-West Trac

Traditional data centers are architected

with a rigid, three-tier tree topology

optimized for the north-south trac ow

of client-server computing environments,

compromising performance, increasing

latency, and creating bottlenecks. With

the increased prevalence of virtualization

and distributed applications, data center

network trac is now predominantly

east-west, or server-server. Brocade

data center fabrics were designed and

optimized to address these trac patterns

by moving trac through any of the active

paths and avoiding the multiple hops

required in other tiered topologies.

In-Service Software Upgrade

The Brocade VDX 6940 delivers a highly

ecient In-Service Software Upgrade

(ISSU) by leveraging a software model

that uses a dual-OS infrastructure on a

multi-core CPU. This enables data center

administrators to deliver enterprise-class

business continuity on xed switches

during a software upgrade/downgrade

process. This software change process is

non-disruptive to Layer 2, Layer 3, Fibre

Channel, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet

(FCoE) trac. Moreover, the ISSU

implementation is hardware-optimized,

thus reducing the time it takes to complete

the upgrade/downgrade process.

Advanced Storage Support

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches provide

advanced storage support with multiple

storage connectivity options, including

FCoE, iSCSI, and NAS. They also feature

Data Center Bridging (DCB), which

enables the reliable exchange of storage

trac over the LAN, eliminating packet

loss when network congestion occurs and

allocating bandwidth as needed to keep

the network running eciently. Moreover,

Brocade VDX 6940 Switches oer

NAS Auto QoS intelligence to prioritize

delay-sensitive IP storage trac within

the fabric and to help ensure consistent

performance while decreasing latency.
