Huawei CE6865E-48S8CQ-B Data Center Switch
Huawei CE6865E-48S8CQ-B is a CloudEngine 6800E series switch offering 10/25GE access and 100GE uplinks for high-performance data center leaf/spine networks.
The Huawei CE6865E-48S8CQ-B is a high-performance fixed-configuration data center switch from the Huawei CloudEngine 6800E series, designed for leaf/spine architectures in enterprise and cloud data centers requiring high-density 10GE/25GE access and 100GE uplinks.
It provides 48 × SFP28 ports (supporting 10GE/25GE depending on optics) and 8 × QSFP28 100GE uplink ports, enabling flexible high-bandwidth connectivity for server access and spine aggregation in modern cloud infrastructures.
This model is optimized for next-generation data centers, cloud computing environments, and virtualization-heavy workloads, where low latency, high throughput, and scalability are critical.
It is typically deployed in:
- Data center leaf (ToR) switching layers
- Aggregation/spine interconnect networks
- Enterprise private cloud infrastructure
- Virtualized and containerized computing environments
The CE6865E-48S8CQ-B supports advanced data center technologies including:
- VXLAN for network virtualization
- EVPN (software dependent)
- M-LAG for active-active redundancy
- BFD for fast fault detection
- Advanced QoS and traffic engineering
From a hardware perspective:
- 1U high-density chassis design
- Dual power supply slots with 1+1 redundancy
- Hot-swappable fan modules for continuous operation
- Front-to-back airflow optimized for data center racks
Key performance characteristics:
- High-density 10GE/25GE server access switching
- High-speed 100GE uplinks for spine connectivity
- Non-blocking architecture optimized for cloud-scale traffic patterns
The CE6865E-48S8CQ-B is widely used in enterprise data centers, cloud service providers, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments, supporting scalable and resilient network fabric designs.
