A BUILDING BLOCK FOR VIRTUALIZED,
PRIVATE CLOUD STORAGE
The Brocade 6520 provides a critical building
block for today’s highly virtualized, private
cloud storage environments. It simplifies
server virtualization and Virtual Desktop
Infrastructure (VDI) management while
meeting the high-throughput demands of
Solid State Disks (SSDs). The Brocade 6520
also supports multitenancy in cloud
environments through Virtual Fabrics,
Quality of Service (QoS), and fabric-based
zoning features.

The Brocade 6520 enables secure metro
extension to virtual private or hybrid clouds
with 10 Gbps Dense Wavelength Division
Multiplexing (DWDM) link support, as well
as in-flight encryption and data compression
to optimize bandwidth and minimize the risk
of unauthorized access. With four times more
in-flight encryption and compression ports than
the Brocade 6510 Switch, the Brocade 6520
