Huawei S3700-28TP-EI-AC Product Documentation

Name: Huawei S3700-28TP-EI-AC Switch - SunSpike
SKU: S3700-28TP-EI-AC

Product Overview

The Huawei S3700-28TP-EI-AC is a next-generation, energy-efficient enterprise-class Fast Ethernet switch designed for the S3700 series. Built on advanced high-performance hardware and the Huawei VRP (Versatile Routing Platform) software platform, this switch is primarily targeted at enterprise network aggregation and access layer deployments.

Featuring Layer 3 switching capabilities and AC power supply, the S3700-28TP-EI-AC delivers a robust combination of high-density port connectivity, advanced traffic management, and comprehensive security features. With a switching capacity of 64 Gbps and a forwarding performance of 9.6 Mpps (or up to 14.1 Mpps depending on configuration), the switch provides ample bandwidth for demanding enterprise environments.

The device supports stacking technology, 4K VLANs, QinQ extension, multi-dimensional traffic control, and multicast load balancing. It also incorporates advanced technologies including stack融合, virtual router redundancy, and fast ring network protection. Comprehensive security features include IEEE 802.1X authentication, DDoS/ARP attack defense mechanisms, and RADIUS-based hierarchical authentication. Network management is supported through SNMP, SSH V2 protocols, integrated virtual cable testing, and port mirroring capabilities. The hardware natively supports IPv4/IPv6 dual stack and IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling, along with a rich set of IPv6 routing protocols.

With its compact 1U form factor measuring 442×420×43.6mm and weighing less than 2.5kg, the S3700-28TP-EI-AC is an ideal solution for enterprises seeking a reliable, feature-rich, and cost-effective switching platform.
