LST3X48SX6S0 FAQ
Q1: What are the maximum single-port speed and transmission distance of the Huawei LST3X48SX6S0 interface card? Does it support hot-swapping?
A1: Maximum single-port speed is 10Gbps, and maximum transmission distance is 10km (with SFP+ 10G LR module); it supports SFP+ module hot-swapping, ensuring uninterrupted backbone services during maintenance.
Q2: Is this interface card compatible with the Huawei S7706 switch? What is the maximum number of cards supported by a single S12712 unit?
A2: Fully compatible with the S7706 switch (requires upgrade to the latest system version); a single S12712 unit supports a maximum of 8 cards, providing 384 10G ports to meet the needs of ultra-large backbone expansion.
Q3: What are the core advantages of the LST3X48SX6S0 compared to 16-port/24-port 10G interface cards?
A3: The port density per slot is increased by 2-3 times, and the slot occupancy is reduced by 50%-67% for the same 10G port requirement; the cost per port is 30% lower, resulting in a significant total cost advantage when deployed on a large scale, and higher backbone expansion efficiency.
