CE6870-48S6CQ-EI FAQ
Q1: Do the 48 10GE optical ports support backward compatibility with 1G speeds? Can they be directly connected to older 1G optical port devices?
A1: Yes, they support 10G/1G speed auto-adaptation. No manual configuration is required. They can be directly connected to older 1G optical port servers and terminals or newer 10GE devices, offering excellent compatibility in all-optical scenarios.
Q2: What are the advantages of all-optical ports compared to electrical ports? What specific scenarios are they suitable for?
A2: Optical ports offer longer transmission distances, stronger anti-interference capabilities, and lower signal loss, making them suitable for cross-floor, cross-building, and long-distance networking scenarios. They avoid the transmission distance limitations (≤100 meters) and signal interference issues of electrical ports, making them suitable for all-optical data centers and campus all-optical network construction.
Q3: What are the differences between this and the Huawei CE6870-48T6CQ-EI (hybrid port)? How to choose?
A3: This model features an all-optical port, suitable for long-distance, interference-resistant, and all-optical transition scenarios; CE6870-48T6CQ-EI is a hybrid configuration of electrical and optical ports, suitable for short-distance, low-cost access scenarios. The choice between the two depends on the deployment distance and network architecture.
