Questions & Answers
What are the key features of the Huawei CE6851-48S6Q-HI switch?
The CE6851-48S6Q-HI offers 48×10G SFP+ and 6×40GE QSFP+ ports, dual FAN boxes, port-side intake cooling, Huawei VRP OS, 1.44Tbps switching capacity, and modular power-module support (sold separately).
What is the switching capacity and forwarding rate?
This switch delivers up to 1.44Tbps of non-blocking switching capacity and forwards packets at up to 1.07 Bpps, ensuring ultra-low latency and high throughput for data-center environments.
Which optical modules are compatible with the 48×10G SFP+ ports?
The 10G SFP+ ports support Huawei SFP-10G modules, including SR, LR, ER, ZR optics, as well as 10G DAC and AOC cables for short-reach connections.
What types of QSFP+ modules work with the 6×40GE ports?
The 40GE QSFP+ ports support Huawei QSFP-40G-SR4, QSFP-40G-LR4 optics and 40G DAC/AOC cables for high-density uplinks or spine-leaf topologies.
Does the CE6851-48S6Q-HI include a power module?
No. The CE6851-48S6Q-HI is shipped without a power module. You must order compatible AC or DC power modules separately for redundancy and hot-swap capability.
How does the cooling and airflow design work?
It features dual front-side FAN boxes with port-side intake airflow, pulling cool air through the front and exhausting from the rear for efficient data-center cooling.
What deployment scenarios suit this switch?
Ideal for data center leaf or spine layers, campus core/distribution, and high-performance computing environments requiring high port density and low latency.
Which management interfaces are supported?
Supports CLI, Web GUI, SNMPv2/v3, NETCONF, and integration with Huawei eSight for centralized monitoring and configuration automation.
What operating system runs on the CE6851-48S6Q-HI?
It runs Huawei VRP (Versatile Routing Platform) OS, providing advanced Layer 2/3 protocols, QoS, security policies, and MPLS/VxLAN support.
What are the environmental operating requirements?
Operates from 0 °C to 45 °C, 10%–90% non-condensing humidity, and up to 5,000 m altitude. Storage range is –40 °C to 70 °C.
What are the physical dimensions and weight?
The 1U chassis measures 442 mm×320 mm×44 mm and weighs approximately 5.2 kg without power modules or optics installed.
Does it support high availability and redundancy?
Yes. It offers hot-swappable FAN boxes and optional redundant power modules for zero-downtime maintenance and continuous service availability.
What QoS and security features are available?
Features include traffic shaping, policing, ACLs, 802.1X, DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard, VRRP, and advanced queuing for service assurance.
How energy efficient is this switch?
Huawei’s Smart Energy-saving technology dynamically adjusts FAN speed and ASIC power usage, reducing average power consumption by up to 40%.
What warranty and support options are offered?
Comes with a 1-year limited warranty. Extended warranties and 24×7 Huawei TAC support contracts are available for multi-year coverage and rapid response.
