Huawei CloudEngine 5800 series (CE5800 for short) switches are next-generation high-density Gigabit Ethernet switches designed for data centers networks. The CE5800 hardware has an advanced architectural design with high-density GE access ports. The CE5800 is also the first gigabit Ethernet access switch to provide 40GE uplink ports.

Using the Huawei VRP8 software platform, CE5800 switches support Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) and have a high stacking capability (up to 16 member switches in a stack system). In addition, the air flow direction in ventilation channels (front-to-rear or rear-to-front) can be changed. CE5800 switches can work with CE12800 switches to build a scalable, virtualized and converged fabric, meeting the requirements of cloud-computing data centers.
