EH1D2G48TX1E FAQ
Q1: What are the core functions of this service board? How are the advantages of hybrid optoelectronic and WDM combined? A1: It contains 48 10GE hybrid optoelectronic ports (SFP+/RJ45), supporting WDM modules (10-80km) and 10G/1G dual rates; 48 ports for ultra-high density and long-distance transmission, low power consumption ≤205W, suitable for long-distance hybrid interface scenarios with limited fiber resources.
Q2: What are the core advantages compared to a regular 48-port hybrid optoelectronic board? A2: The advantages are WDM compatibility (long distance + fiber optimization), ultra-high density saving slots, and compatibility with both optical and electrical interfaces, simultaneously solving the three major pain points of long-distance transmission: high fiber optic usage, complex deployment, and high cost.
Q3: Does it require specific WDM modules/cables? Which core protocols does it support? A3: Compatible with Huawei standard SFP+ WDM wavelength division multiplexing modules (CWDM/DWDM), ordinary optical modules, and Cat6a/Cat7 network cables; supports IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack, QoS, LACP, and VRRP to meet the high reliability requirements of long-distance transmission.
Q4: How to determine if this service board needs to be deployed? Is the installation complex? A4: Deployment is recommended when a large cross-regional network requires 40+ mixed-interface terminal access, pursues long-distance transmission, and wants to optimize fiber optic resources; supports hot-swapping, installation requires no professional tools, and the ports automatically adapt to WDM/ordinary modules and optical/electrical modes.
