Huawei CloudEngine 6881-48T6Q Network Switch

The Huawei CloudEngine 6881-48T6Q is a high-performance modular network switch designed for campus and data-center access-layer deployments. Built on Huawei's CloudEngine architecture, it delivers wire-speed Layer 2/3 switching with advanced virtualization and programmability features to support converged enterprise networks. The platform supports mixed 10GbE and 40GbE uplink connectivity, enabling flexible network topology designs across mid-to-large scale infrastructure.

The 6881-48T6Q configuration features 48 × 10GbE ports with integrated RJ45 connectors, complemented by 6 × 40GbE QSFP+ uplink ports for spine connectivity or high-bandwidth aggregation. The switch integrates Huawei's iMaster network management suite and supports OpenFlow and standard NETCONF/YANG interfaces for SDN integration and orchestration within heterogeneous multi-vendor environments.

Optimized for organizations modernizing access-layer infrastructure, the CloudEngine 6881 series delivers consistent performance in data-center fabric and campus core-to-access architectures, with operational familiarity across Linux-based network operating systems and vendor-neutral APIs.

Ideal for

• Data-center access-layer switching for hyperscale and cloud-native workloads requiring high port density and low-latency forwarding
• Campus network backbone and building distribution consolidation in large multi-building university and enterprise environments
• High-performance computing (HPC) cluster interconnect and distributed storage fabric with 40GbE uplink aggregation
• Converged infrastructure supporting virtual machine, container, and bare-metal workload switching with dynamic VLAN and overlay support
• Government and public-sector data-center refresh for legacy Cisco and HP infrastructure replacement
• Service-provider edge and metro access switching with carrier-grade reliability and multi-tenant isolation
