CEL48CQ-SAN FAQ
Q1: Which Huawei switch models does the CEL48CQ-SAN support? How compatible is it?
A1: It mainly adapts to Huawei CE12800 series mid-to-high-end switches, CE8800 series high-end switches, and CE7800 series high-end switches. The interfaces and slots are fully matched, with 100% compatibility; simply plug it in and it's ready to use. It is also compatible with mainstream third-party FC-SAN devices.
Q2: Can 16G and 8G FC optical modules be used simultaneously on the 48 ports? Is additional configuration required?
A2: It supports independent port rate auto-negotiation and can simultaneously use 16G and 8G FC optical modules. Different ports flexibly adapt to storage devices with different speeds, requiring no additional configuration and offering extremely strong compatibility.
Q3: Does this interface card support the FCIP protocol? Can it achieve disaster recovery interconnection for remote storage?
A3: Supports the FCIP protocol, enabling interconnection of FC-SANs across different locations via IP networks. It is perfectly suited for disaster recovery scenarios involving remote storage, eliminating the need for additional dedicated gateway devices and reducing disaster recovery construction costs.
