Hardware 

This section contains the most frequently asked questions about the switch hardware. 

Q. 

 

Does the switch support CF cards? 

A. 

 

No. 

Q. 

 

Does the switch provide USB ports? 

A. 

 

Yes. 

Q. 

 

Does the switch provide Mini USB console ports? 

A. 

 

Yes. 

Q. 

 

What is wire speed? 

A. 

 

Wire speed means that data is transmitted on a physical medium at the maximum rate defined by the industry 

standard. For example, the wire speed of a fast Ethernet link is 100 Mbps. 

Q. 

 

What transceiver modules and cables are available for the SFP+ ports on the switch? 

A. 

 

For the transceiver modules and cables available for the SFP+ ports on the switch, see 

H3C S7500E-XS Switch 

Series Installation Guide

Q. 

 

What are the power system features of the switch? 

A. 

 

The power system of the switch has the following features: 

 

The power system supports the intelligent power management function. 

 

The power modules are small in size but provide a large amount of power. 

 

Two power modules can be installed for redundancy. 

 

The power modules are hot swappable. 

All the S7500E-XS switches except the S7504E-XS switch can operate correctly with a minimum of one power 

module. An S7504E-XS switch requires a minimum of two power modules. 

Q. 

 

Can DC power modules and AC power modules be used on the same switch? 

A. 

 

Yes. 

Q. 

 

What protective measures do the switch power modules use? 

A. 

 

The switch power modules use the following protective measures: 

 

Input protection

—Input over-voltage protection and input under-voltage protection. 

 

Output

 

protection

—Output over-voltage protection, output over-current protection, and output 

over-temperature protection.
