BTI Systems has announced that the BTI 7000 Series has additional client services modules, verified by Brocade Communications Systems, as compatible with Brocade-based SAN infrastructure.
The Brocade Data Center Ready program is a testing and configuration initiative designed to foster end-to-end SAN interoperability. As part of the program, testing is conducted in SAN configurations that include a heterogeneous mix of servers, storage systems, Brocade switches, SAN management and enterprise applications, and other SAN technologies.
Vendors receive Brocade Data Center Ready qualification after completing tests to confirm that vendors’ products meet interoperability guidelines.
“Storage area networks are being deployed worldwide at a rapid rate as a scalable, high-performance networking foundation for storage environments. The Brocade Data Center Ready program is an example of our continued commitment to delivering end-to-end interoperability to customers,” said Ben Taft, Senior Director of Strategic Alliances at Brocade.
BTI Systems certified the Dual 4G Multiprotocol Transponder (1, 2, 4G Fibre Channel), Dual 10G Multiprotocol Transponder (10G Fibre Channel), and the 10-port Multiprotocol Muxponder (1, 2, 4G Fibre Channel), complementing the Dual 1G and 2.5G Multiprotocol Transponders previously certified.
Jason Smith, Solutions Marketing and Certifications Program Manager of BTI Systems, claims the Brocade Data Center certification is a key industry stamp that is important to their customers.
“They know that BTI Systems’ platforms meet the high standards of Brocade’s rigorous testing and they can be confident about the performance we deliver,” he said.
The BTI 7000 Series delivers all the capabilities of large core network platforms in the industry’s most compact, modular, low power consumption, easy-to-use packet optical network system.
BTI’s Intelligent Service Edge solutions provide wavelength and packet-level delivery of high capacity services such as video, storage, wired data, wireless data and voice, and media to the network edge.
