With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the traffic of data center is increasing day by day. Data, algorithm and computing power become the three key elements of AI development. In 2025, the global new data volume will reach 180ZB, far exceeding the human processing capacity, and 95% of the data will rely on AI processing. In order to improve AI computing power, storage and computing performance has been upgraded. However, traditional Ethernet can not effectively eliminate packet loss (0.1% packet loss will reduce the computing power of data center by 50%), which becomes the bottleneck of computing power improvement.

Therefore, Huawei has launched CE8800 series switches, which are mainly used in data centers and high-end parks. The built-in AI chip can intelligently analyze the network traffic model and make network 0 lose packets. Huawei CE8800 series switches can realize the whole network reliability, no service perception in fault scenarios, flexible programming of network equipment, intelligent operation and maintenance and other functions, support rich data center characteristics and high-performance stacking, and help enterprises and operators build data center network platform for cloud computing era.

Huawei ce8800 series switches are equipped with high-density 400G / 200G / 100GE / 40GE / 25GE / 10G ports, which can be matched with 25G SFP28 optical module, 40G QSFP+ optical module and 100G QSFP28 optical module.

Although Huawei CE8800 series switches are good, the cost performance ratio of Huawei switches equipped with Huawei optical modules is not high. In order to solve the problem of insufficient budget for integrators and operators, as a mature optical module manufacturer in the industry, ETU-Link can produce optical modules compatible with various famous brand switches including Huawei. For the optical module configuration of Huawei CE8800 series switch, 25G SFP28, 40G QSFP+ and 100G QSFP28 optical module produced by ETU-Link can be selected.

The following are the parameters of Huawei optical module corresponding to ETU-Link optical module:

Finally, ETU-Link will tell you the factors that need to be considered when purchasing switches

1. Port rate. The speed of switch port has 100M, Gigabit and 10GB.

2. Port type. The common ports of switch include RJ45, SC fiber port, AUI port, FDDI port, Console port, etc.

3. Switching capacity. Switching capacity is a performance index that we need to pay special attention to when we choose a switch. The higher the switch capacity is, the stronger the load data forwarding ability of the switch is.

4. Number of ports. The number of switch ports is usually 12 / 24 / 32, etc., which can also be customized according to the needs of enterprises.

5. Packet forwarding rate. Packet forwarding rate is based on data packets, which reflects the switching ability of the switch, The unit is MPPs. Packet forwarding rates vary from a few MPPs to several hundred MPPs.

6. Switch application scenarios. Switches are generally used in data centers and industrial parks.

With the need of the times, the switch will be upgraded iteratively. ETU-Link will continuously improve the compatibility of optical modules and provide more cost-effective optical modules to more users. At the same time, as a professional optical module manufacturer, etu-link will continue to launch higher speed optical modules to meet the market demand.
