FastIron SX 800 chassis

The Brocade FastIron SX 800 is a Layer 3 switch chassis built for network cores that need intelligent services such as QoS, advanced security and integrated resiliency. It uses a common operating system across the FastIron line and shares interface and power supply modules to simplify operations.

Manageable 8-slot 6U platform

Network teams who want a rack-mountable, manageable chassis with eight expansion slots and redundant power supply support will find this unit suited to backbone deployments. Buyers who need a fixed-configuration switch without modular expansion should look at a different form factor.

Eight expansion slots and PoE support

The chassis provides eight total expansion slots and supports PoE on RJ-45 ports, giving headroom for line-card growth and powered device deployments. Capacity runs out when the slot count or the available power budget for PoE devices is exceeded.

Questions about this item

Which line cards or modules must I already have to populate the 8 expansion slots in this FastIron SX 800 chassis?

The chassis provides 8 total expansion slots for compatible FastIron SX 800 line cards; you must supply the appropriate interface modules for the port types and speeds your network requires.

Will my existing Brocade power supplies work with the redundant power supply support in this 6U chassis?

Yes, the chassis supports redundant power supplies and uses shared power supply modules common across the FastIron line, so compatible existing supplies can be reused.

How can I verify the chassis is operating correctly after installing modules and powering it on?

The switch is manageable and supports Layer 3 protocols; use the management interface to confirm all 8 slots show populated modules, power supplies report redundant status, and routing protocols such as HCRP and SPP are active.
