Overview
The Brocade 6910 Ethernet Access Switches are carrier grade access switches that meet the
requirements for nonstop networking with Layer 2 services. Each platform provides dual power
input for redundancy and has been architected with the state of the art hardware design and field
proven operating system for reliability and resiliency. Brocade 6910 switches support multiple fiber
or copper configurations on a single switch using a 12 Gigabit combination RJ-45/SFP ports.
Brocade 6910 allows the same ports to be configured to connect directly to the customer or as
network interface on the service side. This ideally positions the Brocade 6910 at the edge of a
broadband access network for Ethernet service demarcation, extension and aggregation.

GbE ACCESS RINGS
The switches have a 1000BASE-T port for dedicated management access (which can be operated
outside the data channel). It has an SNMP-based management agent embedded on the main
board, which supports both in-band and out-of-band access using a Web browser, SNMP/RMON, or
Telnet.
