Brocade MLX Series

The NetIron MLX Series of switching routers are designed for cost effective high performance metro applications, Internet edge/aggregation applications, as well as high end enterprise backbones. Each NetIron MLX switching router offers hardware based advanced layer-2 switching capabilities as well as IPv4, IPv6, and MPLS routing.
Each Brocade MLX router has a base system which includes the chassis with redundant fans and fan controllers, one management module, and a number of switch fabrics and power supplies (chassis dependent) required to support a fully loaded system. Customers can optionally add components (management, switch fabric, power supplies) to the system for redundancy and high availability.
