What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
BR-VDX6940-36Q is what is quoted and BR-VDX6940-36Q is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
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.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is BR-VDX6940-36Q genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in Brocade / Extreme Networks (formerly Broadcom) packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will BR-VDX6940-36Q work in my server?
Tell us what it is aggregating and what optics you already hold. We confirm the port mix, the uplink capacity and the airflow variant, and we will list the optics and rail kit you will also need.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.

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.
