Provides data packet processing and traffic management on 24 40GE optical ports, which can be split into 96 10GE optical ports.
Maximum port density
If all LPUs are CE-L24LQ-FD cards:
The CE12804/CE12804S chassis provides a maximum of 96 40GE ports. The chassis also provides a maximum of 48 100GE ports.
The CE12808/CE12808S chassis provides a maximum of 192 40GE ports. The chassis also provides a maximum of 96 100GE ports.
The CE12812 chassis provides a maximum of 288 40GE ports. The chassis also provides a maximum of 144 100GE ports.
The CE12816 chassis provides a maximum of 384 40GE ports. The chassis also provides a maximum of 192 100GE ports.
High 40GE port density (24x40GE)
A 40GE port can be split into four 10GE ports. Therefore, a CE-L24LQ-FD can provide a maximum port density of 96x10GE.
On a CE-L24LQ-FD card, 12 40GE ports can be used as 100GE ports, and each of them can be split into four 25GE ports. Their IDs are: 0, 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13, 16, 17, 20, 21. These port IDs are represented by (0, 1, 4, 5…) in the following descriptions.

CE-L24LQ-FD FAQ
Q1: Which Huawei switch models does the CE-L24LQ-FD support? How compatible is it?
A1: It mainly supports Huawei CE8800 series (CE8850, CE8860, CE8861) and CE7800 series (CE7850, CE7855) mid-to-high-end switches. It is fully compatible in both hardware and software, with 100% compatibility and no additional debugging required.
Q2: Are 24 40GE ports sufficient for the aggregation needs of small to medium-sized data centers? Is multi-card expansion complicated?
A2: A single card can meet the basic aggregation/core requirements of small to medium-sized data centers; multi-card expansion can be achieved simply by inserting the card into the switch slot, requiring no additional configuration, making operation simple and efficient.
Q3: What is the difference between the CE-L24LQ-FD and the 36-port CE-L36LQ-FD? How should one choose for small to medium-sized scenarios? A3: The CE-L24LQ-FD offers a better balance of port count and capacity for small to medium-sized organizations, with lower costs; the CE-L36LQ-FD boasts higher density and is suitable for slightly larger-scale applications. For small to medium-sized organizations without extreme size requirements, the CE-L24LQ-FD offers superior cost-effectiveness.
