CE6863-48S6CQ-K Overview
CE6863-48S6CQ-K Port and Chassis Identity
CE6863-48S6CQ-K is the 48-port 25GE member of Huawei's fixed CloudEngine 6863-K platform. Huawei documents forty-eight SFP28 access ports and six QSFP28 uplinks in a 1U chassis. The access ports can operate at 10GE or 25GE with the documented media restrictions; the uplinks support 40GE or 100GE.
Power, Cooling and Software Checks
The switch has two power slots and four fan slots. Huawei supports redundant power operation, but the selected power modules and FAN-031A modules must use the same airflow direction. The exact-model hardware description maps this switch to V200R019C10 and later software, so an installed-base replacement must also be checked against the current VRP release and configuration.
Before Quotation
- Confirm the complete K-suffix model, not another CE6863 port variant.
- List every required 25GE and 100GE optic, AOC or DAC separately.
- Match fan and power airflow to the rack's cold-aisle design.
- Verify software release, licenses, rack kit and power cords.

Slot Description
Power Slots
Each of the CloudEngine 6800 series switches has two power module slots and supports pluggable power modules. A chassis can use one or two power modules. In particular, dual power modules provide higher reliability.
The CloudEngine 6800 series switches support 1+1 backup of power modules.
- When both power modules are working properly, each of them provides half of the power required for the chassis.
- When one power module fails, the other one provides all power required for the chassis.
All power modules of the devices are hot swappable.
Fan Slots
Each of the CloudEngine 6800 series switches has four fan slots in which fan modules can be installed to cool the chassis, ensuring efficient heat dissipation and system stability.
It is recommended that four fan modules be properly installed on a switch to ensure normal switch operating. The device supports four pluggable fan modules that work in hot standby mode. The system can operate properly for a short time after a single fan module fails. You are advised to replace the faulty fan module immediately.
All fan modules are hot swappable.
Heat Dissipation System
The cooling system of the CloudEngine 6800 series switches uses front-to-back or back-to-front airflow depending on the airflow direction of the power modules and fan modules used.
- Front-to-back airflow: Power modules and fan modules with front-to-back airflow are identified by
. Air flows into the chassis from the power supply side and is exhausted from the port side, as shown in Figure 3-104 (using a CE6863 chassis as an example).
- Back-to-front airflow: Power modules and fan modules with back-to-front airflow are identified by
. Air flows into the chassis from the port side and is exhausted from the power supply side, as shown in Figure 3-105 (using a CE6863 chassis as an example).
Figure 3-104 Front-to-back airflow for port-side exhaust
Figure 3-105 Back-to-front airflow for port-side intake
The airflow direction of the power modules and fan modules required on the CloudEngine 6800 series switches depends on how the device is installed in a cabinet. Typically, cabinets in a data center have cold air flowing in from the front and hot air exhausted from the back. If a switch is installed with the power supply side facing the front and the port side facing the back, the switch needs to adopt fan modules and power modules with front-to-back airflow.
Power modules and fan modules using forced air cooling on a switch must have the same airflow direction. If a switch adopts power modules with back-to-front airflow, the switch must use fan modules with back-to-front airflow as well.
