Brocade Fiber Switch Enterprise G720 San Datacenter Nvme Storage 150W
Brocade Fiber Switch Enterprise G720 San Datacenter Nvme Storage 150W
Product Description
The Broadcom Brocade G720 is a Gen 7 (64G) mid‑range enterprise SAN switch delivering 4.096 Tb/s total bandwidth and 460 ns latency (including FEC) for flash and NVMe storage environments. Scaling from 24 to 64 ports (48 SFP+ + 8 SFP‑DD, each DD port supporting 2×64G) via on‑demand Ports on Demand (PoD), it features AES‑GCM‑256 encryption on FC ISL E_Ports and Brocade LZO inline compression. With dual 350W hot‑swap redundant PSUs (fans integrated), support for up to 239 switches per fabric (4,000 certified nodes), and a compact 1U form factor, the G720 is built for secure, high‑density SAN consolidation.
Key Differentiators

460 ns low latency (including FEC) — NVMe‑oF ready
-
Auto‑sensing speeds: 8/10/16/32/64G
-
Port types: E_Port, F_Port, EX_Port, D_Port, M_Port
-
AES‑GCM‑256 encryption (FC ISL E_Port)
-
Brocade LZO inline compression
-
Up to 239 switches per fabric / 4,000 certified nodes
-
Dual 350W hot‑swap redundant AC PSUs (fans integrated)
-
1U form factor
-
