Maximum output power of AC power modules
Using PHD-3000WA power modules: 380 V three-phase AC input, 220 V single-phase AC input, or 110 V dual-live-wire AC input: N+N backup, N+1 backup, and N+0 mode (N ≤ 4): 3000 W x 4 = 12000 W 110 V single-live-wire AC input: N+1 backup (N ≤ 7): 1500 W x 7 = 10500 W N+0 mode (N ≤ 8): 1500 W x 8 = 12000 WNOTE:If the power modules use a 110 V power source, follow these suggestions:1. Use double live wires. In this case, the output power of a power module is 3000 W.2. If only one live wire is used, the output power of a power module is 1500 W. In this case, it is recommended that you use more power modules or change the power module backup mode to increase the output power.
Maximum output power of DC power modules
N+N backupc (N ≤ 4): 2200 W x 4 = 8800 W N+1 backup and N+0 mode (N ≤ 5): 2200 W x 5 = 11000 W
Maximum output power of high-voltage DC power modules
N+N backup, N+1 backup, and N+0 mode (N ≤ 4): 3000 W x 4 = 12000 W
Heat dissipation
The power modules have their own fans, which cool the power modules through front-to-back airflow.
Hot swap
The power modules are hot swappable.
Reliability and availability
Modules
Power module:If double external power supply systems are used, the N+N backup mode is recommended. If a single external power supply system is used, you can use more power modules or change the power module backup mode to increase the output power. To enhance system reliably, you are advised to use the N+1 backup mode.
Fan module: Fan modules work in hot backup mode. At normal temperature range, the system can operate normally for a short time after a single fan module fails. You are advised to replace the faulty fan module immediately.
MPU: 1:1 hot standby
CMU: Not supported
Hot swap: All the power modules, fan modules, and cards support hot swap.

Q1: What are the port expansion capabilities of the CE12808S? What high-speed port types does it support?
A1: It supports mixed insertion of multiple service boards. A single device can be expanded to support dozens of service boards, covering multiple speed ports such as 400G/100G/25G/10G, meeting the access needs of different scenarios.
Q2: Will the full redundancy configuration increase deployment costs? Will failover affect services?
A2: Although the initial investment for the full redundancy design is slightly higher, it can avoid huge losses caused by service interruptions; failover time is less than 1 second, with no impact on the control plane and data plane, and service operation is unaffected.
Q3: What are the differences between the CE12808S and other series of switches (such as the CE9800)? How should one choose for large-scale scenarios?
A3: The CE12808S is a flagship core switch, focusing on ultra-large-scale scheduling and full redundancy, suitable for the core layer of large data centers; the CE9800 series focuses on balanced performance for medium and large-scale scenarios. The CE12808S is the preferred choice for large-scale cloud data centers and industry cloud core nodes.
