Dell Brocade M6505 16Gb FC Enterprise Blade Switch
Dell
Dell internal replacement Brocade M6505 24-Port 16Gb Fibre Channel blade I/O switch module assembly (BR-M6505 / 0W3346 / W3346) featuring 24 active SFP+ ports and 8x 16Gb SFP+ transceivers for PowerEdge M1000e blade enclosures.
The BROCADE M6505 is an internal data connectivity interface module engineered to deliver cost-effective network transformation and enhanced system stability within multi-node server frameworks. Functioning as a high-reliability SAN switching unit and high-capacity storage networking management layer, this 16Gb Fibre Channel blade switch module assembly slides directly into enterprise chassis backplane bays using localized connection lines. Operating under system-regulated DC power parameters across multi-channel Fibre Channel fabric architectures, it establishes high-efficiency routing pathways to manage internal data processing pipelines across high-density databases, continuous multi-threaded enterprise workloads, and legacy hardware consolidations. Its modular switch layout and fault-isolated Access Gateway architecture manage internal bus communication cleanly, shielding core operational paths from signaling latency, packet drops, or single-point-of-failure throughput disruptions during continuous high-availability enterprise runtime operations.
