Here are the best uses for the Brocade 6505 SAN Switch:
- Building High-Performance Virtualized and Private Cloud Environments This switch is an ideal backbone for server virtualization. The 16 Gbps Fibre Channel speed and low latency ensure that the I/O demands from a large number of virtual machines are handled without bottlenecks. By providing a dedicated, high-speed connection between virtualized hosts and shared storage, it guarantees consistent performance and enables seamless migration of virtual machines, making it a critical component for a private cloud.
- Data Center Consolidation and Simplification For organizations looking to streamline their IT infrastructure, this device is a perfect tool. It allows you to consolidate multiple storage arrays and servers onto a single, high-speed fabric. This reduces cabling complexity, simplifies management, and lowers operational costs, as you no longer need multiple, disparate storage solutions.
- Supporting Demanding, I/O-Intensive Applications The Brocade 6505 is built to handle mission-critical workloads. Its high-throughput architecture is perfectly suited for applications that generate vast amounts of data, such as large-scale databases, data analytics, and high-definition video editing. The fast, reliable connection ensures that these applications can access and write data with minimal latency, leading to faster processing and improved user experience.
- Scalable, Future-Proof Infrastructure With a 'pay-as-you-grow' model, starting with 12 active ports and the ability to unlock up to 24, this switch is designed for evolving businesses. It allows you to invest only in the capacity you need today while providing an easy and cost-effective path to scale your storage network in the future. This flexibility makes it a smart, long-term investment for a growing IT environment.
- Entry-Level to Mid-Sized SANs While powerful, the Brocade 6505 is also an accessible entry point into the world of dedicated Storage Area Networks. Its simplified deployment and user-friendly management interface make it a great choice for small to medium-sized businesses or remote offices that need to transition from direct-attached storage to a more robust, scalable, and centralized SAN architecture without a steep learning curve.

All electrical and electronic equipment, particularly IT and computing devices, must be disposed of correctly as governed by the EU WEEE Directive. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the product indicates that it must not be discarded with regular household waste. By following these regulations, we all contribute to protecting our shared environment. Separate collection is mandatory because IT equipment often contains hazardous materials (such as lead and mercury) that can contaminate the environment, and it allows for the recovery of valuable and finite resources (such as gold and copper) through specialized recycling. The end-user is legally responsible for ensuring that this waste is delivered to a designated municipal collection point, an authorized recycler, or a qualified retailer for professional and environmentally sound processing.
Please check with your local authority or municipal waste provider for authorized legal disposal points in your area.
