Huawei S5700-28C-EI-DC – Product Information

Name: Huawei S5700-28C-EI-DC Switch - SunSpike
SKU: S5700-28C-EI-DC

Product Overview

The Huawei S5700-28C-EI-DC is a next-generation energy-saving Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to meet the demands of high-bandwidth access and Ethernet multi-service aggregation. As part of the S5700 Enhanced Edition (EI) series, this Layer 3 managed switch delivers robust performance with 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and advanced switching capabilities.

The switch is equipped with 24 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports for high-speed connectivity, along with two expansion slots – one for an uplink subcard and the other for a stack card, enabling flexible network scalability. It features dual power supply slots with one DC power module pre-installed, supporting hot-swappable AC/DC power supplies for enhanced reliability and redundancy.

With a switching capacity of 256 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 96 Mpps, the S5700-28C-EI-DC provides large-capacity, high-density packet forwarding capabilities. It supports advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 features including 4K VLANs, comprehensive ring protection protocols (RRPP, Smart Link, ERPS, STP/RSTP/MSTP), Ethernet OAM, BFD, and MPLS L3/L2VPN, making it suitable for enterprise campus access and aggregation, data center Gigabit access, and desktop switching scenarios.

The switch comes in a compact 1U form factor with dimensions of 442.0 mm × 420.0 mm × 43.6 mm and weighs 4.8 kg.
