H3C S9855-48CD8D 400G Uplink High-Density ToR Data Center Switch
H3C S9855-48CD8D Data Center Switch
Overview
The H3C S9855-48CD8D is a high-density 100 GE data-center ToR/leaf switch built for cloud computing, storage networks, and large enterprise data centers. It features 48 × 100 GE QSFP28 access/downlink ports and 8 × 400 GE uplink ports, delivering unmatched density in a 1U form factor. The switch supports VXLAN, EVPN, SR-DC, and full RDMA/RoCEv2 lossless Ethernet, making it ideal for modern data-center fabrics.
Note: Power and fan modules must be purchased separately.
Highlights
1. High-Density 100G Access
48 × 100GE DSFP access ports plus 8 × 400GE QSFP-DD uplink ports enable extremely dense server access in large-scale cloud or HPC deployments.
2. Lossless Data-Center Fabric
Supports PFC, ECN, DCBX, and RoCEv2 for zero-packet-loss storage and HPC workloads, ensuring deterministic and ultra-low-latency forwarding.
3. Advanced Virtualization & Multi-Tenant Fabric
Built-in VXLAN, EVPN, SR-DC, and automation features enable scalable cloud fabric and multi-tenant networks.
4. Intelligent O&M & Programmability
Provides Telemetry, sFlow, and programmable automation with Python/OPS to simplify data-center operations and monitoring.
