Brocade LS Series Switches

Brocade's FastIron LS Series are compact high performance networking switches that support 20 or 44 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports plus 4 combo copper/fiber Gigabit Ethernet ports supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps (RJ45) or 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Fiber (SFP) connectivity.

In addition, the FastIron LS Series switches support optional field-upgradeable 10GbE modules for cost-effective solution for 10/100/1000 Mbps network access and the flexibility to support 10-GE. The 24 port models support up to three 10GbE ports while the 48 port models support up to two 10GbE ports.

The FastIron LS series can be field-upgraded to support IronStack, Brocades’s stacking solution. With IronStack, up to 8 FastIron LS series switches can be stacked together operating as a single logical chassis.

The FastIron LS Series switches deliver advanced Layer 2, Base Layer 3 and Edge Layer 3 (EdgePREM) features based on the company’s field-proven IronWare networking software. Base Layer 3 features include IPv4 static routes, RIP route advertisement, VRRP, virtual and routed interfaces, ECMP and DHCP relay. EdgePREM software includes IPv4 routing features such as OSFP and RIPv1/v2 in addition to features supported in Base Layer 3. The EdgePREM software can either be pre-installed or can be upgraded in the field via the EdgePREM upgrade kit.

Pluggable 10-GE modules, XFP and SFP transceivers and additional CX4 cables are optional and must be purchased separately.

Used does not mean less capable. As soon as gear is plugged in it becomes “used”, much like a brand new car driving off the lot.
