  • CloudEngine 12800 Series Data Center Core Switches

    Product Overview

    The CloudEngine 12800 (CE12800) series switches are next-generation, high-performance core switches

    designed for data center networks and high-end campus networks. Using Huawei's next-generation

    VRP8 software platform, CE12800 series switches provide stable, reliable, secure, high-performance L2/L3

    switching capabilities to help build an elastic, virtualized, and high-quality network.

    CE12800 series switches use advanced hardware architecture design and have the highest performance of

    any currently available core switches. The CE12800 provides as much as 64 Tbit/s switching capacity and

    high-density line-speed ports. Each switch has up to 192*100GE, 384*40GE, or 1,536*10GE ports.

    The CE12800 series switches use the Clos architecture and provide comprehensive virtualization capabilities

    along with data center service features. The switches use innovative energy-saving technologies to greatly

    reduce power consumption. In addition, a front-to-back airow design provides industrial-grade reliability.

    Product Appearance

    The CE12800 is available in six models: CE12804S, CE12808S, CE12804, CE12808, CE12812, and CE12816.

    The CE12800 series uses interchangeable components to reduce costs on spare parts. This design ensures

    device scalability and protects customers' investment.

    CloudEngine 01

  • Next-Generation Core Engine Provides the Industry's Highest Performance

    64 Tbit/s Switching Capacity The CE12800 provides 4 Tbit/s per-slot bidirectional bandwidth (scalable to 10 Tbit/s) and a maximum

    of 64 Tbit/s switching capacity (scalable to more than 160 Tbit/s). This capacity can support sustainable

    development of cloud-computing data centers for the next 10 years.

    The CE12800, together with the CE6800/CE5800 series of Top-of-Rack (TOR) switches, can implement

    the largest non-blocking switching network in the industry. This network can provide access for up

    to 18,000*10GE servers or 70,000*GE servers and support data center server evolution across four

    generations from GE, 10GE, 40GE, and ultimately 100GE.

    Terabit High-Density Line Cards The forwarding capacity of a line card can reach up to 1.2 Tbit/s.

    The CE12800 line cards provide the industry's highest port densities, from 24*40GE/96*10GE to

    12*100GE.

    The CE12800 provides as many as 192*100GE, 384*40GE, or 1,536*10GE line-speed ports.

    Super-Large Buffer of 18 GB All service ports (100GE/40GE/10GE/GE) support a super-large buffer.

    The distributed buffer mechanism on inbound interfaces can effectively handle incast trafc loads in data

    centers.

    The line card provides up to 18 GB buffer, which is dynamically shared by interfaces to improve usage

    efciency.

    128 Tbit/s Non-Blocking System The CE12816 is the industry's rst data center core switch to support a non-blocking system. Two

    CE12816s can be upgraded to the CE12832 through back-to-back Cluster Switch Systems (CSSs) of

    Switch Fabric Units (SFUs). The new device provides 32 service slots, with a capacity of 128 Tbit/s.

    The CE12832 builds a strict non-blocking system using Clos. All trafc between two CE12816 chassis can

    be forwarded without occupying any service interface.

    The CE12832 can be upgraded through a CE12816 in-service upgrade. During the upgrade, services are

    not affected. This ensures continuous evolution and expansion of the customer service system.

    Comprehensive Virtualization Capabilities Implement Simple, Efcient Networking

    VS Implements On-demand Resource Sharing Highest device virtualization capability: The CE12800 uses Virtual System (VS) technology to provide an

    industry-leading virtualization capability that enables one switch to be virtualized into as many as sixteen

    logical switches. This 1:16 ratio enables one core switch to manage services for an enterprise's multiple

    service areas such as production, ofce, and DMZ, or for multiple tenants.

    Higher security and reliability: VS technology divides a network into separate logical areas for service

    isolation. The failure of one virtual switch does not affect other virtual switches, enhancing network

    security.

    Lower CAPEX: VS technology improves the use efciency of physical devices by implementing on-

    demand resource allocation. This ensures network scalability and reduces investment in devices.

    Product Characteristics

    02 CloudEngine

  • Lower OPEX: Using one physical device to implement multiple logical devices saves space in a data

    center equipment room and reduces the cost of device maintenance.

    CSS Simplies Network Management The CE12800 uses industry-leading CSS technology, which can virtualize multiple physical switches into

    one logical switch to facilitate network management and improve reliability.

    The CE12800 provides the dedicated system inter-connect port and separates the control channel from

    the service channel, improving reliability.

    The CE12800 provides a cluster bandwidth of 1.6 Tbit/s. This super-high bandwidth prevents trafc

    bottlenecks on data center networks.

    The CE12800 switches establish a cluster using service ports with distances of up to 80 km between

    cluster member switches.

    The CE12800 uses CSS+VS synergy technology to turn a network into a resource pool so that network

    resources can be allocated on demand. On-demand resource allocation is ideal for the cloud-computing

    service model.

    Large-Scale Routing Bridge Supports Flexible Service Deployment The CE12800 series switches support Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL), a standard

    IETF protocol. The TRILL protocol helps build a large Layer 2 network with more than 500 nodes, which

    permits exible service deployments and Virtual Machine (VM) migrations. A TRILL network can use

    10GE/GE servers.

    The TRILL protocol uses a routing mechanism similar to IS-IS and sets a limited Time-to-Live (TTL) value

    in packets to prevent Layer 2 loops. This signicantly improves network stability and speeds up network

    convergence.

    On a TRILL network, all data ows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equal-

    cost Multi-path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the problem of suboptimal path selection in the

    Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and increase link bandwidth efciency to 100 percent.

    The CE12800 supports up to 32 TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links' load-

    balancing capabilities. The network's fat-tree architecture supports easy expansion.

    EVN Supports Resource Sharing Across Data Centers The Ethernet Virtual Network (EVN) implements inter-data center Layer 2 interconnection across the

    IP WAN, and integrates multiple data centers into a large IT resource pool. VMs can migrate between

    data centers. EVN supports Layer 2 interconnection of a maximum of 32 data centers, which enable

    scalability that is 5 times higher than the industry. EVN combines the advantages of the Border Gateway

    Protocol (BGP) and Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) to provide high scalability and highly efcient use of

    bandwidth.

    High scalability: Based on BGP at the control plane, the CE12800 supports millions of MAC addresses

    and routes, 32K tenants, and 256K VMs.

    Highly efcient bandwidth usage: The forwarding plane uses VXLAN encapsulation. Flow-based load

    balancing is implemented on the entire network, which optimizes bandwidth usage.

    Agile Controller Implements Fast VM Migration The CE12800 works with Huawei's Agile Controller to permit network policies to be dynamically

    deployed on the CE12800. nCenter also supports online VM migration.

    Agile Controller delivers network policies through high-speed RADIUS interfaces. Its online VM migration

    is 10 to 20 times the rate of other industry platforms, enabling large-scale VM migrations.

    CloudEngine 03

  • Agile Controller is based on open APIs and is compatible with all major virtualization platforms including

    VMware.

    Fully Programmable Switch Permits Agile Service Provisioning

    ENP Implements Programmability at the Forwarding Plane The CE12800 is based on Huawei's innovative, programmable Ethernet Network Processor (ENP). The

    high-performance 480 Gbit/s ENP card implements openness and denition capabilities for the rst time

    at the forwarding plane on data center networks.

    The ENP card denes network functions through software and extends network functions. When new

    services are provisioned, there is no need to invest in replacement hardware.

    The ENP card reduces service provisioning from two years to six months - an improvement of four times

    over current industry capabilities that help customers to quickly implement service innovations.

    OPS Implements Programmability at the Control Plane The CE12800 uses the Open Programmability System (OPS) embedded in the VRP8 software platform to

    provide programmability at the control plane.

    The OPS provides open APIs. APIs can be integrated with mainstream cloud platforms (including

    commercial and open cloud platforms) and third-party controllers. The OPS enables services to be exibly

    customized and provides automatic management.

    Users or third-party developers can use open APIs to develop and deploy specialized network

    management policies to implement extension of fast service functions, automatic deployment, and

    intelligent management. The OPS also implements automatic operation and maintenance, and reduces

    management costs.

    The OPS provides seamless integration of data center service and network in addition to a service-

    oriented, Software-Dened Network (SDN).

    Virtualized Gateway Achieves Fast Service Deployment The CE12800 can work with a mainstream virtualization platform. As the high-performance, hardware

    gateway of an overlay network (VXLAN/NVGRE), a CE series switch can support more than 16M tenants.

    The CE12800 can connect to a cloud platform through an open API to provide unied management of

    software and hardware networks.

    This function implements fast service deployment without changing the customer network. It also

    protects customer investments.

    ZTP Implements Zero-Conguration Deployment The CE12800 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP enables the CE12800 to automatically obtain

    and load version les from a USB ash drive or le server, freeing network engineers from onsite

    conguration or deployment. ZTP reduces labor costs and improves device deployment efciency.

    ZTP provides built-in scripts for users through open APIs. Data center personnel can use the programming

    language they are familiar with, such as Python, to provide unied conguration of network devices.

    ZTP decouples conguration time of new devices from device quantity and area distribution, which

    improves service provisioning efciency.

    Advanced Architecture Ensures Industry-Leading Network Quality

    High-Performance, Non-blocking Switching Architecture

    04 CloudEngine

  • The CE12800's non-blocking switching architecture includes an orthogonal switch fabric design, Clos

    architecture, cell switching, Virtual Output Queuing (VOQ), and a super-large buffer.

    Orthogonal switch fabric design: CE12800 service line cards and switch fabric units (SFUs) use an

    orthogonal design in which service trafc between line cards is directly sent to the SFUs through

    orthogonal connectors. This approach reduces backplane cabling and minimizes signal attenuation.

    The orthogonal design can support signal rates as high as 25 Gbit/s per Serdes, which is 2.5 times the

    industry average. This design greatly improves system bandwidth and evolution capabilities, enabling the

    system switching capacity to scale to more than 100 Tbit/s.

    Clos architecture: The CE12800's three-level Clos architecture permits exible expansion of switch fabric

    capacity. The architecture uses Variable Size Cell (VSC) and provides dynamic routing. Load balancing

    among multiple switch fabrics prevents the switching matrix from being blocked and easily copes with

    complex, volatile trafc in data centers.

    VOQ: The CE12800 supports 96,000 VOQ queues that implement ne-grained Quality of Service (QoS)

    based on the switch fabrics. With the VOQ mechanism and super-large buffer on inbound interfaces, the

    CE12800 creates independent VOQ queues on inbound interfaces to perform end-to-end ow control

    on trafc destined for different outbound interfaces. This method ensures unied service scheduling and

    sequenced forwarding and implements non-blocking switching.

    Highly Reliable Industry-grade Hardware Architecture Hot backup of ve key components: Main Processing Units (MPUs) and Centralized Monitoring Unit

    (CMUs) work in 1+1 hot backup mode. SFUs work in N+M hot backup mode. Power supplies support

    dual inputs and N+N backup and have their own fans. Both fan trays work in 1+1 backup mode; each

    fan tray has two counter-rotating fans working in 1+1 backup mode, ensuring efcient heat dissipation.

    Redundancy of three types of major buses: Monitoring, management, and data buses all work in 1+1

    backup mode. Bus redundancy ensures reliable signal transmission.

    Independent triple-plane design: The independent control, data, and monitoring planes of the CE12800

    improve system reliability and ensure service continuity.

    High-Performance VRP8 Software Architecture The CE12800 takes advantage of Huawei's next-generation VRP8, a high-performance, highly reliable

    modular software platform that provides continuous services.

    Fine-grained distributed architecture: VRP8, the industry's high-end software platform, uses a ne-

    grained, fully distributed architecture that can process network protocols and services concurrently using

    multiple instances. This architecture takes full advantage of multi-core/multi-CPU processes to maximize

    performance and reliability.

    Highly reliable In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU): VRP8 supports ISSU.

    Pioneering Energy-saving Technologies

    Strict Front-to-Back Airow Design The CE12800 uses a patented front-to-back airow design that isolates cold air channels from hot air

    channels. This design meets heat dissipation requirements in data center equipment rooms.

    Line cards and SFUs use independent airow channels, which solve the problems of mixing hot and cold

    air and cascade heating, and effectively reduce energy consumption in equipment rooms.

    Each fan tray has two counter-rotating fans, ensuring efcient heat dissipation.

    CloudEngine 05

  • The fan speed in each area can be dynamically adjusted based on the workload of line cards in the area.

    This on-demand cooling design lowers power consumption and reduces noise.

    Low Power Consumption (5 W/10GE) The CE12800 uses innovative energy saving technologies. Each 10GE port consumes only 5 W power,

    which is half the industry standard. It greatly reduces power consumption in the data center equipment

    room.

    Miercom has performed a series of strict tests for the CE12800, proving its low power consumption.

    Miercom test report: http://enterprise.huawei.com/ilink/cnenterprise/download/HW_200123.

    Efcient, Intelligent Power Supply System The CE12800 incorporates the industry's most efcient digital power modules, which provide power

    efciency of 96 percent.

    The power supply system measures power consumption in real time and puts one or more power

    modules into sleep mode when system power demands are low.

    The CE12800 can save energy dynamically by adjusting the power consumption of components to adapt

    to changes in service trafc volume.

    Data Center Applications

    On a typical data center network, CE12800/

    CE7800 switches function as core switches,

    and CE6800/CE5800 switches function as TOR

    switches. CE6800/CE5800 switches connect to

    CE12800/CE7800 switches through 40GE/10GE

    ports. The CE12800/CE7800 and CE6800/CE5800

    switches use the TRILL protocol to build a non-

    blocking Layer 2 network, which allows large-scale

    VM migrations and exible service deployments.

    Note: The TRILL protocol can be also used on

    campus networks to support exible service

    deployments in different service areas.

    Campus Network Applications

    On a typical campus network, two CE12800/CE7800 switches are virtualized into a logical core switch using

    CSS or iStack technology. Multiple CE6800 switches at the aggregation layer form a logical switch using

    iStack technology. CSS and iStack improve network reliability and simplify network management. At the

    access layer, CE5800 switches are virtualized with SVF to provide high-density line-speed ports.

  • Highly Reliable, High-performance Stacking

    The industry's rst 16-member stack system

    A stack system of 16 member switches has a maximum of 512*40GE access ports that provide high-

    density server access in a data center.

    Multiple switches in a stack system are virtualized into one logical device, making it possible to build

    a scalable, easy-to-manage data center network platform.

    A stack system separates the control plane from the data plane. This eliminates the risk of single-

    point failures and greatly improves system reliability.

    Long-distance stacking

    The CE7800 can use service ports as stack ports. A stack system can be established with switches in

    the same rack or different racks, and even over long distances.

    Service and stack bandwidths can be allocated based on the network's scale so that network

    resources can be used more efciently.

    Large-scale Routing Bridge, On-demand Scalability

    The CE7800 supports the IETF Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) protocol. A TRILL

    network can contain more than 500 nodes, enabling exible service deployments and large-scale Virtual

    Machine (VM) migrations.

    The TRILL protocol uses a routing mechanism similar to IS-IS and sets a limited Time-to-Live (TTL) value

    in packets to prevent Layer 2 loops. This signicantly improves network stability and speeds up network

    convergence.

    On a TRILL network, all data ows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equal-cost

    Multi-path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the suboptimal path selection problem in STP and

    increase link bandwidth efciency to 100 percent.

    The CE7800 supports TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links' load balancing

    capabilities. The network has a fat-tree architecture that enhances expansion.

    Converged Enhanced Ethernet, Data, Storage, and Computing Trafc over One Network

    The CE7800 supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which permits storage, data, and computing

    services to be transmitted on one network, reducing the costs of network construction and maintenance.

    The CE7800 supports centralized FCoE/FC gateway deployment, which makes network O&M simpler.

    Various CE7800 features ensure lossless transmission: Priority-based Flow Control (PFC), Enhanced

    Transmission Selection (ETS) and Data Center Bridging eXchange (DCBX). These features ensure low

    latency and zero packet loss for FC storage and high-speed computing services.

    Fast VM Migration, Policy Mobility

    The CE7800 works with Huawei's Agile Controller to permit network policies to be dynamically deployed

    on the CE7800. Agile Controller also supports online VM migration.

    Agile Controller delivers network policies through high-speed RADIUS interfaces. Its online VM migration

    is 10 to 20 times the rate of other industry platforms, enabling large-scale VM migrations.

    12 CloudEngine

  • Agile Controller is based on open APIs and is compatible with all major virtualization platforms including

    VMware.

    Programmable Network Device, Flexible Customization

    The CE7800 uses the Open Programmability System (OPS) embedded in the VRP8 software platform to

    provide programmability at the control plane.

    The OPS provides open APIs. APIs can be integrated with mainstream cloud platforms (including

    commercial and open cloud platforms) and third-party controllers. The OPS enables services to be exibly

    customized and provides automatic management.

    Users or third-party developers can use open APIs to develop and deploy specialized network

    management policies to implement extension of fast service functions, automatic deployment, and

    intelligent management. The OPS also implements automatic operation and maintenance, and reduces

    management costs.

    The OPS provides seamless integration of data center service and network in addition to a service-

    oriented, Software-Dened Network (SDN).

    Virtualized Gateway Achieves Fast Service Deployment

    The CE7800 can work with a mainstream virtualization platform. As the high-performance, hardware

    gateway of an overlay network (VXLAN/NVGRE), the CE7800 can support more than 16M tenants.

    The CE7800 can connect to a cloud platform through an open API to provide unied management of

    software and hardware networks.

    This function implements fast service deployment without changing the customer network. It also

    protects customer investments.

    Zero-Conguration Deployment, Automatic O&M

    The CE7800 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP enables the CE7800 to automatically obtain

    and load version les from a USB ash drive or le server, freeing network engineers from onsite

    conguration or deployment. ZTP reduces labor costs and improves device deployment efciency.

    ZTP provides built-in scripts for users through open APIs. Data center personnel can use the programming

    language they are familiar with, such as Python, to provide unied conguration of network devices.

    ZTP decouples conguration time of new devices from device quantity and area distribution, which

    improves service provisioning efciency.

    Flexible Airow Design Saves Energy

    Flexible front-to-back/back-to-front airow design

    The CE7800 uses a front-to-back/back-to-front airow design that isolates cold air channels from hot

    air channels. This design meets heat dissipation requirements in data center equipment rooms.

    Air can ow from front to back, or back to front when different fans and power modules are used.

    Redundant power modules and fans can be congured to ensure uninterrupted service transmission.

    CloudEngine 13

  • Innovative energy-saving technologies

    The CE7800 has energy-saving chips and can measure system power consumption in real time. Fan

    speed can be adjusted dynamically based on system consumption. These energy-saving technologies

    reduce O&M costs and contribute to a greener data center.

    Clear Indicators, Simple Maintenance

    Clear indicators

    Port indicators clearly show port status and port speeds. The 40GE port indicators can show the state

    of all the 10GE ports derived from the 40GE ports.

    State and stack indicators on both the front and rear panels enable operators to maintain the switch

    from either side.

    The CE7800 supports remote positioning. Operators can turn on remote positioning indicators on

    the switches they want to maintain, so that they can nd switches easily in an equipment room full

    of devices.

    Simple maintenance

    The management port, fans, and power modules are on the front panel, which facilitates device

    maintenance.

    Data ports are located at the rear, facing servers. This simplies cabling.

  • Networking and Application

    Data Center Applications

    On a typical data center network, CE12800/

    CE7800 switches work as core switches and

    CE6800/CE5800 switches work as TOR switches.

    CE6800/CE5800 switches connect to CE12800/

    CE7800 switches through 40GE/10GE ports. The

    CE12800/CE7800 and CE6800/CE5800 switches

    use the TRILL protocol to build a non-blocking

    Layer 2 network, which allows large-scale VM

    migrations and exible service deployments.

    Note: The TRILL protocol can be also used on

    campus networks to support exible service deployments in different service areas.

    Campus Network Applications

    The CE7800 can be used on a campus network. Its high-density, line-speed 40GE ports and high stacking

    capability can meet the ever-increasing demand for network bandwidth. CE7800 switches are cost-

    effective campus network switches, thanks to their extensive service features and innovative energy-saving

    technologies.

    On a typical campus network, two CE12800/CE7800 switches are virtualized into a logical core switch using

    CSS or iStack technology. Multiple CE6800 switches at the aggregation layer form a logical switch using

    iStack technology. CSS and iStack improve network reliability and simplify network management. At the

    access layer, CE5800 switches are virtualized with SVF to provide high-density line-speed ports.

    Note: iStack technology is also widely used in data centers to facilitate network management.

  • CloudEngine 5800 Series Data Center Switches

    Product Characteristics

    High-density GE Access

    Each CE5800 switch provides 48*GE line-speed ports, which makes future data center expansion easy.

    The CE5850 is the rst GE access switch to provide 40GE uplink ports. CE5850 switches can work with CE12800 switches to build a high-performance data center network that provides 40GE access. The two 40GE uplink ports on CE5850 back up each other to improve system reliability.

    The CE5810 has models with 48*GE and 24*GE ports that can be exibly deployed in racks with different server port densities to meet different cabling requirements in data center equipment rooms.

    Highly Reliable, High-performance Stacking

    The industry's rst 16-member stack system

    A stack system of 16 member switches has a maximum of 768*GE access ports that provide high-density server access in a data center.

    Multiple switches in a stack system are virtualized into one logical device, making it possible to build a scalable, easy-to-manage data center network platform.

    A stack system separates the control plane from the data plane. This eliminates the risk of single-point failures and greatly improves system reliability.

    Long-distance, highly reliable stacking

    CE5800 switches can use either 10GE or 40GE ports as stack ports. A stack system can be established with switches in the same rack or different racks, and even over long distances.

    The 40GE ports of the CE5850 can set up large-capacity stack channels that enable multiple CE5800 switches to constitute a non-blocking stack system.

    Vertical Virtualization Simplies Management

    The CE5800 supports Super Virtual Fabric (SVF), which can virtualize multiple homogeneous or heterogeneous physical switches into one logical switch to simplify network management and improve reliability.

    SVF implements vertical extension of heterogeneous switches and virtualizes multiple leaf switches into remote cards of the spine switch, making it easier to install cables in equipment rooms and manage devices. The CE5810 functions as the leaf switch.

    Huawei's SVF is the rst in the industry to implement local forwarding of leaf switches. When horizontal trafc is the mainstream trafc in a data center, SVF improves forwarding efciency and reduces network delay.

    Large-scale Routing Bridge, On-demand Scalability

    The CE5850 supports the TRILL protocol and can be used on a large Layer 2 TRILL network with GE/10GE servers. A TRILL network can contain more than 500 nodes, enabling exible service deployments and large-scale Virtual Machine (VM) migrations.

    The TRILL protocol uses a routing mechanism similar to IS-IS and sets a limited Time-to-Live (TTL) value in packets to prevent Layer 2 loops. This signicantly improves network stability and speeds up network convergence.

    On a TRILL network, all data ows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equal-cost Multi-path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the suboptimal path selection problem in STP and increase link bandwidth efciency to 100 percent.

    The CE5850 supports up to 16 TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links' load balancing capabilities. The network has a fat-tree architecture that enhances expansion.

    CloudEngine 27

  • Fast VM Migration, Policy Mobility

    The CE5800 works with Huawei's Agile Controller to permit network policies to be dynamically deployed on the CE5800. Agile Controller also supports online VM migration.

    Agile Controller delivers network policies through high-speed RADIUS interfaces. Its online VM migration is 10 to 20 times the rate of other industry platforms, enabling large-scale VM migrations.

    Agile Controller is based on open APIs and is compatible with all major virtualization platforms including VMware.

    Programmable Network Device, Flexible Customization

    The CE5800 uses the Open Programmability System (OPS) embedded in the VRP8 software platform to provide programmability at the control plane.

    The OPS provides open APIs. APIs can be integrated with mainstream cloud platforms (including commercial and open cloud platforms) and third-party controllers. The OPS enables services to be exibly customized and provides automatic management.

    Users or third-party developers can use open APIs to develop and deploy specialized network management policies to implement extension of fast service functions, automatic deployment, and intelligent management. The OPS also implements automatic operation and maintenance, and reduces management costs.

    The OPS provides seamless integration of data center service and network in addition to a service-oriented, Software-Dened Network (SDN).

    Zero-Conguration Deployment, Automatic O&M

    The CE5800 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP enables the CE5800 to automatically obtain and load version les from a USB ash drive or le server, freeing network engineers from onsite conguration or deployment. ZTP reduces labor costs and improves device deployment efciency.

    ZTP provides built-in scripts for users through open APIs. Data center personnel can use the programming language they are familiar with, such as Python, to provide unied conguration of network devices.

    ZTP decouples conguration time of new devices from device quantity and area distribution, which improves service provisioning efciency.

    Flexible Airow Design Saves Energy

    Flexible front-to-back/back-to-front airow design

    The CE5800 uses a front-to-back/back-to-front airow design that isolates cold air channels from hot air channels. This design meets heat dissipation requirements in data center equipment rooms.

    Air can ow from front to back, or back to front when different fans and power modules are used.

    Redundant power modules and fans can be congured to ensure uninterrupted service transmission.

    Energy-saving technologies

    The CE5800 has energy-saving chips and can measure system power consumption in real time. Fan speed can be adjusted dynamically based on system consumption. These energy-saving technologies reduce O&M costs and contribute to a greener data center.

    Clear Indicators, Simple Maintenance

    Clear indicators

    Port indicators clearly show port status and port speeds.

    State and stack indicators on both the front and rear panels enable operators to maintain the switch from either side.

    28 CloudEngine

  • Product Specications

    CE5800 switches support remote positioning. Operators can turn on remote positioning indicators on the switches they want to maintain, so that they can nd switches easily in an equipment room full of devices.

    Simple maintenance

    The management port, fans, and power modules are on the front panel, which facilitates device maintenance.

    Data ports are located at the rear, facing servers. This simplies cabling.
