The way companies communicate and conduct business has changed dramatically over the past decade.Services such as HD video streaming, cloud services or mobile connectivity at any time and in any location not only require enormous network capacity, but also create more complexity in network operation.
Network planners are therefore looking for solutions that offer the right mix of scalability, performance, programmability and simple operation.The Brocade MLX Series high-performance routers, which also include the Brocade MLXe core routers, have been designed to meet these requirements.
With the sixth generation network processor-based architecture and switch fabrics in terabit size, the Brocade MLX Series offers comprehensive high-performance functions for Layer 2/3, IPv4, IPv6, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), wirespeed encryption and software -Defined Networking (SDN).
Therefore, these routers are suitable for a variety of applications in data centers or service provider environments, companies or government organizations, including service provider transit and Internet Exchange Points (IXPs), research and education networks, campus networks in private companies / government organizations or mobile network service providers (4G / LTE ).
