S3700 Series Enterprise Switches

For Fast Ethernet switching over twisted-pair copper, Huawei’s S3700 Series combines proven reliability with robust routing, security, and management features in a compact, energy-efficient switch.

Flexible VLAN deployment, PoE capabilities, comprehensive routing functions, and capability to migrate to an IPv6 network help enterprise customers build next-generation IT networks.

Choose Standard (SI) models for L2 and basic L3 switching; Enhanced (EI) models support IP multicasting and more complex routing protocols (OSPF, IS-IS, BGP).

Choose Huawei S3700 Series Ethernet Switches for high-density 100 Mbit/s L2 and L3 access and aggregation switching

  • Runs Huawei’s Versatile Routing Platform (VRP) software
  • Intelligent virtualization with Huawei’s iStack technology
  • Smart Link and Rapid Ring Protection Protocol (RRPP) ensure network reliability
  • Dying gasp messaging alerts for loss of power
  • Support for IPv6 routing protocols including RIPng and OSPFv3
