They also bought out McData who was one of their competitors in the fabric 
switch arena.  I don't have any experience with Foundry but I have had a couple 
of people recommend them.

Had to go look on their site��������� I had forgotten that Brocade acquired 
Foundry Networks last ye����������� �����������������s where Brocade got all 
their Ethernet/wireless stuff.

 

I do������������t have any experience with Foundry Networks Ethernet/wireless 
equipment, so cannot provide input on that front.

Thanks...

We're looking at a site-to-site wireless link. They want to come do a 
site-survey, and before I started talking to them, I wanted to make sure they 
were a known, reliable organization.

Large Fiber Channel switch vendor.  Think SANs.

 

We only use them for SAN fabric switches.. didn't think they were in the 
Ethernet switch business.

Subject: Brocade

 

Anyone know anything about a company called Brocade? I received a cold call 
from them this morning. They are supposed to be some sort of networking company 
and I have never heard of them. That being said, I probably haven't heard of a 
lot of them. :-)

 

I would appreciate any comments, good or bad, about them.
