    Description

    The Huawei CloudEngine 12800 Series (CE12816E, CE12808E, CE12804E) delivers up to 536 Tbps of non-blocking switching capacity, making it ideal for hyperscale data center cores and AI/cloud compute fabrics.

    Each chassis supports up to 256×100 GbE or 2 304×10 GbE line-rate ports and employs an industry-leading, backplane-free Clos architecture for predictable, scalable performance. 

    Built on Huawei’s next-generation VRP8 platform, the CE12800 switches support VXLAN, BGP-EVPN for multi-tenant overlays, and advanced Telemetry-based intelligent O&M for real-time monitoring and fast fault localization.

    Key Features

    • Up to 536 Tbps switching capacity in a modular chassis design. 
    • High-density port options: 256×100 GE or 2 304×10 GE per chassis.
    • Backplane-free Clos architecture for seamless scale-out.
    • VXLAN & BGP-EVPN for scalable network virtualization.
    • Telemetry-driven intelligent O&M with real-time analytics.
    • Front-to-back airflow and energy-efficient design to minimize power draw. 

    Configuration

    Model Max Capacity 100 GE Ports 10 GE Ports Architecture
    CE12816E 536 Tbps 256 2 304 Backplane-free Clos
    CE12808E 268 Tbps 128 1 152 Backplane-free Clos
    CE12804E 134 Tbps 64 576 Backplane-free Clos

    Compatibility

    Fully interoperable with Huawei data center fabrics (CE6800/5800 leaf switches), third-party spine/leaf architectures, and supports standard protocols (STP, BGP, OSPF, EVPN). 

    Usage Scenarios

    Deploy as the core of ultra-large data centers handling “East-to-West” compute offloading in cloud and AI clusters. 

    Build cross-region multi-site fabrics for real-time AI training and inference workloads with guaranteed sub-microsecond latency. 

    Scale out private cloud and AI data centers without forklift upgrades—simply add additional CE12800 chassis to expand capacity.
