Huawei X2CS Overview
The original Huawei X2CS Upstream Board is a critical 10GE optical uplink card designed for Huawei MA5680T/MA5683T OLT systems. Featuring 2 uplink ports (SFP+ module-ready) and SYNC-E support, it enables high-speed upstream/cascading connectivity for FTTx networks. With 18W max power consumption, 9216-byte jumbo frame compatibility, and wide temperature adaptability, it delivers stable performance for telecom operators. MF-Telecom offers in-stock units, 1-year warranty, and pre-sales compatibility support—ideal for reliable network upgrades.
Product Features
- High-Speed Uplink: Provides two 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE) optical ports for connecting to the core network or for OLT cascading.
- Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE): Extracts and synchronizes clock signals from the 10GE interface, crucial for carrier-grade network timing.
- Module-Based Design: Works with SFP+ modules (not included by default) to support different fiber types and distances, enhancing flexibility.
- Integrated Functionality: Includes dedicated modules for power, control, and clock management, ensuring stable operation.
- OLT Integration: Designed for Huawei's SmartAX OLT platforms (MA5680T, MA5683T) to provide access services (GPON, 10G GPON, EPON, 10G EPON).
- Network Performance: Offers low forwarding delay and supports features like jumbo frames (up to 9216 bytes) for efficient data handling.
