Vocus Communications Increases Network Scalability and Port Density to Build 100 GbE Pathway With Brocade - Seite 2

In addition to providing much greater scalability, industry-leading port density, and a path to 100 GbE, the Brocade MLXe reputation for non-stop reliability was also a significant factor in Vocus' decision. As well as the usual redundant power supplies and fans, the routers feature an advanced redundant switch fabric architecture that helps the system operate at peak performance even in the case of a switch fabric card failure.

"In the last few years Vocus Communications has emerged as one of the savviest players in the Australian and New Zealand service provider markets," said Gary Denman, Senior Director, Australia and New Zealand, Brocade. "Its decision to deploy the Brocade MLXe Series as its delivery platform for metro Ethernet services is a testament to their reliability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. In the era of cloud-based service delivery this is a smart investment."
