CE6885L-48YS8CQ is identified in the official specification by weight without packaging (full configuration) [kg (lb)] of eight.forty-five kg (eighteen.sixty-three lb) (including AC power modules and fan modules but excluding optical modules. If the device supports multiple models of modules, the heaviest modules are used for the measurement.) and weight with packaging [kg (lb)] of ten.fifty-three kg (twenty-three.twenty-one lb). Its exact configuration also lists weight with packaging (full configuration) [kg (lb)] of twelve.seventy-two kg (twenty-eight.four lb). These fields should be matched to the bill of materials because they distinguish this SKU from adjacent Huawei CE6800 Series Switches variants.
