the FastIron GS Series gives enterprises
the cost and operational benefits of a
“pay-as-you-grow” architecture.
The FastIron GS Series delivers the
scalability, QoS assurance, resilience, and
VoIP-readiness needed to implement a high-
value converged solution that can scale to
meet future growth at the network edge. An
enterprise may initially deploy a standalone
FastIron GS switch and later upgrade to
IronStack stacking to scale the installation
from one to eight stacked units to meet
growing user requirements.

enterprise may initially deploy a standalone
FastIron GS switch and later upgrade to
IronStack stacking to scale the installation
from one to eight stacked units to meet

With its flexible architecture, the FastIron
GS Series offers investment protection,
while enabling vital network applications
and capabilities such as IP telephony,
wireless access, WebTV, video surveillance,
building management systems, triple
play—voice, video and data, and remote
video kiosks in a cost-effective and high-
performance compact design.

Additionally, the FastIron GS Series may
be deployed in metro area networks for
connecting enterprise customers. In this
environment, the FastIron GS enables rich
and resilient services using the Brocade
Metro Ring Protocol (version I and II) for
building resilient ring-based topologies,
VLAN stacking, and advanced multicast
capabilities including IGMP v1/v2/v3 and
MLD v1/v2 snooping for controlling multicast
traffic for high-bandwidth content delivery.
