What is a Foundry Router?
The Foundry Router was a significant offering from Foundry Networks, a company recognized for its specialization in Ethernet switches and routers. Prior to its acquisition by Brocade Communication Systems, Foundry Networks manufactured these routers to enable efficient data routing and network connectivity. Foundry Routers were designed with the intent to facilitate robust, high-speed data transfer across complex enterprise networks.
