Service Provider networks, of all infrastructure environments, face the most unrelenting pressure day in, day out. There's the question of uptime - Anything short of 100% won't do. There's the issue of traffic - Typical providers route over a terabyte of data a day. And then there's reputation - One outage can destroy years of credibility.

In this always-on business environment, Brocade's portfolio of high-performance, scalable, Carrier class solutions give Service Providers the confidence to innovate on-demand. With extensive selection of Carrier Ethernet Routers and Switches the Brocade Ethernet solutions address a broad range of requirements in service provider backbones, Metro Ethernet networks, transit/wholesale networks, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) and Internet Exchange Points (IXPs).

The Brocade products are proven in thousands of IP/MPLS router deployments around the globe and in some of the largest and most demanding service provider networks. No matter what new technology comes down the pipe, Brocade's open standards approach means highly flexible solutions that maximize ROI.
