Abstract

Huawei CloudEngine S8700 series switches ("CloudEngine S8700") are next-generation modular aggregation/access switches ideal for future-proof cloud campus networks. They are available in three models — CloudEngine S8700-4 with four slots, CloudEngine S8700-6 with six slots and CloudEngine S8700-10 with ten slots — and come with ultra-high densities of GE, 10GE, 25GE, 40GE, and 100GE ports, helping build a future-proof campus network quickly with a simplified architecture.

Built on Huawei's proprietary software platform, CloudEngine S8700 offers customers a trusted system and secure data access. All key components of CloudEngine S8700, including the main control boards, power modules, and fan modules, implement a redundancy design for carrier-grade reliability.

With all these characteristics, CloudEngine S8700 is an ideal choice of aggregation/access nodes needed to build future-proof cloud campus networks, helping customers achieve their digital transformation goals.

Tolly engineers verified performance, specifications, and functions of CloudEngine S8700.
