Product overview
The Brocade NetIron MLX/MLXe series 4-Port 40GbE QSFP+ expansion Module is supplied under part number BR-MLX-40GX4-M. A switch is rarely the whole order: optics, breakout cables, the right power orientation and a rail kit all have to arrive with it. The access ports here are 40GbE. Send the topology and we will quote the complete bill of materials.
We return an itemised quote within 48 business hours, and we say plainly when a part is constrained rather than quoting a date we cannot hold.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against BR-MLX-40GX4-M specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Airflow variant confirmed
We check the airflow direction against your aisle before shipping, because the wrong variant runs hot for the life of the switch.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
