CloudEngine 6800 Series Data Center Switches

CloudEngine 6800 series switches are next-generation switches designed for data center and high-end campus networks, with high performance, high interface density, and low latency. They boast an advanced hardware design with high-density 10 GE/25 GE access interfaces, 40 GE/100 GE uplink interfaces, advanced data center features, high-performance stacking technologies, and flexible airflow capabilities.

High-density access interfaces help enterprises and telecom carriers build cloud-oriented data center networks where they can work with CloudEngine 16800 and CloudEngine 12800 core switches, making it easy to build cloud data center networks that are simplified, elastic, open, and secure.

On Campus networks, CloudEngine 6800 series switches can function as either core or aggregation switches.

Deep Buffering

Offers a 4 GB ultra-large buffer capability, 80 times the industry average, to cope easily with burst traffic on the network.

Oil Company Builds Asia’s Largest Data Center

China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) deployed the Huawei Data Center Network Solution in three data centers located in two different cities. Using active-active data centers in one city ensures flexible service deployment and Virtual Machine (VM) migration. A third data center in another city helps to further improve reliability. This remote Disaster Recovery (DR) data center ensures quick service recovery and prevents data loss if the active data center and the data center in the same city both develop faults. The solution supports unified and automatic O&M that allows users to monitor the overall network status and quickly locate network faults.
