Technical Knowledge – Understanding the Ports

The HW S620-16X8YZ offers two types of interfaces.

• SFP+ Ports

SFP+ is an optical networking interface that is widely used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The Huawei eKitEngine S620-16X8YZ lets businesses connect switches, servers and other compatible devices with cables.

• SFP28 Ports

SFP28 is made to support links, including 25 Gigabit Ethernet. It gives businesses flexibility when connecting gear that needs higher bandwidth.

• Why does this matter?

A mix of SFP+ and SFP28 interfaces lets businesses build a network. It can connect existing gear and higher‑speed devices without relying on copper cables.

Important: The real operating speed depends on the chosen port, compatible optical modules, cables, and configuration. The 16 SFP+ interfaces of the Huawei eKitEngine S620-16X8YZ are not limited to 10GE; they also support GE, 2.5GE, and 10GE.
