Slots on the S16700-8

Slot Type	Slot ID	Slot Direction	Remarks
LPU slot	Slots 1 to 8	The top of the board faces upwards	Different types of LPUs can be installed in the same chassis.
MPU slot	Slots 9 and 10	The top of the board faces upwards	Two MPUs work in active/standby mode for 1:1 hot standby. By default, the MPU with a smaller slot ID is the active MPU, and the MPU with a larger slot ID is the standby MPU.
SFU slot	Slots 1 to 9 Note: For the slots in which SFUs can be installed, see the "IDs of Available Slots" column in "Version Mapping" under "Cards > SFU".	The right side of the board faces upwards	SFUs work in load balancing and redundancy mode. SFUs in the same chassis must be the same model. That is, SFUs of different models cannot be installed in the same chassis.
PM slot	Slots 1 to 10	The indicator light end upwards	PMs are plug-and-play. PM5 to PM10 in the chassis with the part number 02355HUN-001 are reserved.
Fan module slot	Slots 1 to 3	The indicator light end upwards	At the normal temperature range, the system can operate properly for a short time after a single fan module fails. You are advised to replace the faulty fan module immediately.

S16700-8 FAQ

Q1: What is the maximum number of ports that can be expanded? What speeds of line cards are supported?

A1: It supports a maximum of 64 10GE ports, 32 25GE/40GE ports, or 16 100GE ports; compatible with the full range of Huawei line cards, including the LE0DX16XSA00 (16-port 10GE) and LE0DX8X25SA00 (8-port 25GE), offering flexible expansion.

Q2: Does it support dual-core redundant deployment? How is service continuity ensured?

A2: It supports dual-core IRF2 stacking or VRRP backup deployment. The cores are interconnected via a 100GE link. In the event of a single core failure, services automatically switch to the backup core without any noticeable interruption.

Q3: What are the differences between it and the Huawei S12700 series? A3: The S16700-8 focuses on medium to large core scenarios, with more slots (8 slots) and stronger expansion capabilities; the S12700 series focuses on small to medium core/convergence, with better cost performance. The two are complementary in their positioning.
