ET1D2C08HX2H FAQ
Q1: What are the core advantages of this service board? What practical value does the high density of 8 ports bring?
A1: The core advantages are high density of 8 ports, 40G/10G dual-rate compatibility, low power consumption, and high stability. High density significantly saves switch slots, and the dual-rate design reduces upgrade costs, adapting to the needs of large-scale 40G networking.
Q2: Which optical modules does it support? Can it directly connect to existing 10G legacy equipment?
A2: It supports Huawei standard QSFP+ 40G optical modules (SR4/LR4/ER4) and QSFP+ 10G optical modules; dual-rate adaptive design allows direct connection to existing 10G equipment without additional converter configuration.
Q3: How does its power consumption and forwarding performance compare to other 8-port 40G boards of the same level? A3: Total power consumption ≤160W, 30% more energy efficient than comparable products; forwarding capacity ≥640Gbps, supports full-load concurrent forwarding on 8 ports, no performance bottlenecks, suitable for high-load scenarios.
Q4: What network scale scenarios is it suitable for? Is installation complex?
A4: Suitable for 40G large-scale access scenarios such as large data centers, medium-to-large campuses, and carrier city aggregation; supports hot-swapping, installation without downtime, automatic speed recognition after insertion into the switch, simple configuration.
