The Lenovo ThinkSystem DB710S is purpose-built for small to mid-sized businesses that provides low-cost access to Brocade® Gen 7 Fibre Channel technology. 

The DB710S can be deployed in a full-fabric switch mode or in the Brocade Access Gateway mode, which simplifies connecting the switch to existing storage area networks. By utilizing the Fibre Channel N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) standard, Brocade Access Gateway mode can connect to the core SAN switches as a transparent edge switch, simplifying SAN fabric configuration and management, while connecting physical and virtual servers directly to larger SAN fabrics. Key benefits of Brocade Access Gateway mode include the following:

• Improved scalability for large or rapidly growing server and virtual server environments.
• Reduced management of the network edge, since Brocade Access Gateway does not have a domain identity and appears transparent to the core fabric.
• Support for heterogeneous SAN configurations without reduced functionality for server connectivity.

The DB710S is an affordable Gen 7 entry point that starts at just eight ports, with the ability to scale on demand up to 24 ports as client environments grow.
