Smarter Connectivity. Half the Cabling. Full-Scale Performance.

Introducing Panduit’s Gen 7 Fiber Channel Solution — engineered to double density, simplify deployment, and deliver true 1:1 port replication across Brocade-based SAN environments.

Launches January 2026 | Early Access Opens November 10 

A New Generation for Gen 7 SAN Director Connectivity

When Brocade doubled port density on the Gen 7 FC64-64 blade using SN connectors, they unlocked new opportunities for high-performance connectivity.

At the heart of Panduit’s Gen7 Connectivity Solution is what sets it apart: true 1:1 port replication. No guesswork. No mismatched labeling. Just exact port-for-port alignment with Brocade’s FC64-64 blades, giving you total clarity, faster installs, and zero disruption during moves, adds, or changes. Built to meet the demands of high-density fiber environments, this solution doesn’t just double your density, it preserves the structure, precision, and control your operations depend on, while cutting installation time in half.

• True 1:1 port replication aligned to Brocade numbering (0–63).
• Base-16 harness architecture — 50% fewer trunks than competitor designs.
• Up to 87% fewer rear connections per blade for simplified management.
• Half the deployment time, from packaging to install.
