Questions & Answers

What are the key specifications of the CE6850-48T4Q-EI switch?

The CE6850-48T4Q-EI is a high-performance Layer 3 switch offering 48×10Gigabit RJ45 ports and 4×40Gigabit QSFP+ uplinks, up to 1.28Tbps switching capacity, and 960Mpps forwarding. It ships without fans or power modules, supporting front-to-back cooling and flexible power deployment.

How many and what type of ports does the CE6850-48T4Q-EI provide?

This switch provides 48 auto-negotiating 10GbE RJ45 ports for copper connectivity and 4 hot-swappable 40GbE QSFP+ slots for high-density uplinks or stacking.

Does the CE6850-48T4Q-EI include power supplies and fans?

No. The CE6850-48T4Q-EI is sold without fans or internal power modules, allowing you to install customer-selected PSUs and fan trays to meet site requirements and reduce unnecessary power draw.

What is the maximum switching capacity and throughput?

The switch delivers up to 1.28Tbps of switching capacity and 960Mpps of forwarding performance, ensuring line-rate traffic handling on all 52 ports simultaneously.

Which operating system runs on the CE6850-48T4Q-EI?

It runs CloudEngine OS, a full-featured network OS that supports advanced Layer 2/3 services, VXLAN, EVPN, MPLS, segment routing, and intelligent traffic engineering.

Can I stack multiple CE6850-48T4Q-EI switches?

Yes. Using the built-in 40GbE QSFP+ ports, you can form a single logical stack of up to 12 switches with up to 4Tbps of stacking bandwidth and unified management.

What management interfaces are supported?

Management options include a dedicated out-of-band RJ45 console port, an RJ45 management Ethernet port, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, RMON, CLI, Telnet, SSH, and a web-based GUI.

What are the typical use cases for the CE6850-48T4Q-EI?

Ideal for data center leaf or top-of-rack deployments, campus core/distribution layers, and high-performance computing clusters requiring low latency, high throughput, and scalable 10/40GbE connectivity.

Does the CE6850-48T4Q-EI support power redundancy?

Yes. The chassis accepts two hot-swappable AC or DC power modules (sold separately). You can deploy dual supplies for N+1 redundancy and uninterrupted operation.

What is the power consumption of the switch?

Power draw depends on installed modules and traffic. The base unit consumes approximately 150W without modules and can reach up to 800W with two full-capacity power supplies under maximum load.

How is the CE6850-48T4Q-EI cooled?

With no built-in fans, it relies on optional hot-swappable fan trays and front-to-back airflow design. This minimizes noise and leverages data center cooling efficiencies.

What QoS and security features are available?

It provides eight hardware queues per port, strict/weighted round-robin scheduling, traffic policing, shaping, ACLs, port security, DHCP snooping, ARP inspection, and IP source guard.

Is the switch firmware upgradable?

Yes. CloudEngine OS images can be upgraded via FTP, SFTP, USB, or through the web GUI without traffic interruption, enabling new feature activation and security patches.

Which warranty and support options are provided?

The CE6850-48T4Q-EI includes a 3-year limited hardware warranty and software support. Extended support and advanced replacement services are available as optional upgrades.

What are the physical dimensions and rack requirements?

The switch fits a standard 19-inch rack, occupying 1RU of space. It measures 440mm (W) × 43.6mm (H) × 330mm (D) and weighs approximately 6.5kg without modules.

How can I monitor and automate the switch?

Supported tools include Huawei eSight, SNMP, NetStream for flow analytics, RESTful APIs, OpenConfig, and Ansible modules for automated provisioning, monitoring, and configuration.
