Brocade ICX 6650 overview
The Brocade ICX 6650 is a high density, Top of Rack (ToR) switch that offers both 1/10 and 10/40
Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) line rate, low latency cut-through switching, with 1600 Gbps switching
capacity for campus LAN and classic Ethernet data center environments.
The device features:
• 56 SFP+ front-panel ports which support 1/10 GbE data rate
• Six QSFP+ rear-panel ports which support 10/40 GbE data rate
• Four 40 GbE ports support optical QSFP+ module (SR only) up to 100 meters
• Two 4x10 GbE ports that support QSFP-to-SFP breakout optical modules (SR) and
QSFP-to-SFP breakout active copper 1-meter, 3-meter, and 5-meter cables
• SFP+ port support with Brocade 1-meter, 3-meter, 5-meter active copper cables and optical
modules
• QSFP+ port support with Brocade 1-meter, 3-meter, 5-meter active copper QSFP-to-SFP
breakout cables, standard SR4 optical modules, and 4x10 GbE SR4 optical modules
• Dual redundant, hot-swappable 250W AC power supplies available with Intake or Exhaust
airflow
• Dual redundant, hot-swappable fan units available with Intake or Exhaust airflow
• One Gigabit Ethernet port (RJ45) and one serial management port to configure and manage
the switch through the CLI.
