Questions & Answers
What is the CE-L12LQ-EF 12-Port 40G Interface Card (EF, QSFP+)?
The CE-L12LQ-EF is a high-density 12-port 40 Gbps QSFP+ interface card engineered for CloudEngine series switches, delivering up to 480 Gbps full-duplex throughput for data center and enterprise networks.
What are the key features of the CE-L12LQ-EF 12-Port 40G Interface Card?
Key features include 12 full-rate QSFP+ ports, hot-swap design, built-in FEC support, per-port diagnostics, power efficiency under 30 W, and compatibility with multimode, single-mode, and DAC cables.
Which switches are compatible with the CE-L12LQ-EF 12-Port 40G card?
The CE-L12LQ-EF is compatible with H3C CloudEngine series chassis—such as CE12804, CE8800, and CE7800—plus any third-party switch supporting the CE-L line-card form factor.
What data rates does the CE-L12LQ-EF support?
Each QSFP+ port on the CE-L12LQ-EF supports 40 Gbps full duplex. In breakout mode it also supports four 10 Gbps channels per port for flexible deployment.
Does the CE-L12LQ-EF support Forward Error Correction (FEC)?
Yes. The CE-L12LQ-EF supports both RS-FEC and Firecode FEC to improve link stability and reduce packet loss in long-haul and high-density deployments.
How many QSFP+ ports are on the CE-L12LQ-EF?
