Huawei CloudEngine CE6881H-48T6CQ-K Switch – Product Documentation
Product Overview
The Huawei CloudEngine CE6881H-48T6CQ-K is a high-performance, high-density Top-of-Rack (TOR) data center switch from Huawei’s CloudEngine 6800 series . Designed for cloud-oriented data center networks, this 1U switch delivers 4.8Tbps switching capacity and a 2000Mpps forwarding rate . It features 48 x 10GE BASE-T electrical ports for high-density server access and 6 x 40GE/100GE QSFP28 uplink ports, providing flexible network scalability .
The CE6881H-48T6CQ-K supports advanced data center features including VXLAN with BGP-EVPN control plane, enabling up to 16 million tenants for overlay network virtualization . It integrates with Huawei iMaster NCE-Fabric for automated network deployment and management via standard protocols such as NETCONF and SNMP . The switch also supports M-LAG (Multi-chassis Link Aggregation) for device-level link redundancy and active-active load balancing .
Built with a flexible front-to-back or back-to-front airflow design, the switch incorporates energy-saving chips and intelligent fan speed control to optimize power efficiency . It supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) for automated deployment, reducing on-site configuration efforts and operational costs . The open programmability system (OPS) provides open APIs for integration with mainstream cloud platforms and third-party controllers, enabling flexible service customization .
