Huawei NetEngine5000E CR5P5KBASA6A Cluster Router

Usage Area

The Huawei NetEngine5000E CR5P5KBASA6A is a cluster router base configuration designed for deployment in large-scale IP/MPLS backbone networks and data center interconnect environments. It is intended for service provider core networks requiring high-capacity routing, multi-chassis clustering, and long-term scalability. The system supports multi-chassis architecture for aggregation of up to 64 chassis, making it suitable for carrier-grade core and metro aggregation points. This model is configured for 400G interfaces and AC power, enabling deployment in facilities with standard alternating current infrastructure.

Construction Features

• Chassis-based modular design supporting up to 16 slots per single chassis for line cards and control modules.
• Non-blocking switching fabric architecture enabling full line-rate forwarding across all ports.
• Multi-chassis clustering capability allowing expansion from a single unit up to 64 interconnected chassis.
• Base configuration includes AC power supply units for direct connection to facility power sources.
• Hot-swappable modular components for service continuity during maintenance or upgrade operations.
• High-density port design supporting 400G interface modules for backbone aggregation.
