Huawei CX6600‑X8 Full Product Description
Product Overview
The Huawei CloudExchange CX6600‑X8 is a high‑capacity cloud‑backbone modular router belonging to the CX6600 series, built for large‑scale metropolitan core, IP backbone, DCI data‑center interconnection and cloud gateway scenarios. Adopting CLOS distributed non‑blocking switching architecture and Huawei self‑developed Solar NP chipset, running the VRP operating system, this chassis provides 8 LPU service slots. It delivers line‑rate forwarding for high‑density 100GE / 400GE interfaces, supports SR‑MPLS, SRv6, EVPN/VXLAN and mature IP‑optical collaboration capabilities. Widely deployed for metropolitan core routing, large‑scale DCI interconnection, operator cloud interconnection and high‑end large‑enterprise egress gateway scenarios。
Key Features
-
Carrier‑grade ultra‑high‑reliability design: Supports 1+1 hot‑swappable SRU main‑control redundancy, multi‑unit redundant SFU switching fabric modules, multi‑redundant power supplies, hot‑swappable fan trays and service line‑cards. Supports ISSU in‑service software upgrade, GR/NSR/NSF and hardware‑accelerated BFD, achieving 99.999% carrier‑grade availability for mission‑critical backbone networks.
-
High‑performance per‑slot capacity: Each service slot supports up to 4 Tbps forwarding bandwidth, compatible with high‑speed interface boards including 400GE, 100GE, 50GE, 25GE and 10GE, satisfying massive bandwidth growth of cloud interconnection and large‑scale DCI services.
-
Comprehensive routing and service feature set: Natively supports IPv4/IPv6 dual‑stack, OSPF, IS‑IS, BGP, BGP‑SR‑Policy. Rich MPLS feature suite covers LDP, RSVP‑TE, L2VPN, L3VPN, EVPN, VXLAN, SR‑MPLS and SRv6. Supports large‑scale multicast services and SDN‑oriented open programmability via NETCONF/YANG.
-
IP‑optical collaborative capability: Enables joint scheduling with optical transmission devices, simplifies end‑to‑end service provisioning for DCI and cloud‑interconnected services.
-
Hardware‑accelerated OAM & fast protection: Supports BFD, TWAMP‑Light and RFC2544 for end‑to‑end performance monitoring. Supports IP FRR, LDP FRR and TE FRR to implement sub‑50 ms fast service switch‑over upon network faults.
-
Advanced QoS and green energy‑saving: Provides multi‑level HQoS, traffic policing, shaping and sophisticated queue scheduling to guarantee strict service SLA. Adopts intelligent chip dynamic frequency adjustment to lower power consumption per‑gigabit bandwidth.
-
Unified intelligent O&M: Supports Telemetry streaming telemetry, NETCONF/YANG, remote batch deployment and performance statistics, fully compatible with Huawei iMaster NCE platform for automated operation and maintenance of large‑scale backbone networks.
