Question 1

I started looking for a switch that can accommodate different optics form factors, particularly QSFP28-DD and CFP2, and looked a different options you currently offer.
That includes:
NC8200-4TD Chassis combined with the NC8200-8C (8 x QSFP28 line card)
NX N40 Chassis, with the MXP200G-210 Muxponder, MXP400G-104,
However, we need to understand if these chassis will power-up different optics from other vendors besides FS's devices, and if FS can provide integration support if required.

Hello, currently the FS chassis can only be used with FS line cards, and does not provide related optical components from other suppliers. FS provides free technical support services.

Question 2

We are going to be adding one line card to the switches, so we will be inserting one rather than removing/reinstalling one. Is adding a line card while the switch is running not supported?

FS.com · Accepted Answer

The NC8200-8C line card does not support hot-swapping. Hot-swapping means inserting or unplugging the device without power failure. However, in the server application environment, if the power is suddenly cut off, it may cause data loss and equipment damage. Therefore, the line card does not support hot swapping.

Question 3

Can I only use it with FS optics or DAC?

D***c · Accepted Answer

Not really, I think Cisco or Finisar may work well

Question 4

Can I use #48354 QSFP-100G-SR4 transceiver with the product?

G***o · Accepted Answer

Yes, I bought #48354 to connect the line card, works well!

Question 5

Does this switch support RDMA, RoCE V1 and V2? Is it fully managed switches?

FS.com · Accepted Answer

The NC8200-8C is a line card for use with the #NC8200-4TD chassis switch, a fully managed switch that supports RDMA, RoCE V1 and V2. It is ideally suited for medium to large enterprises and data centres.

Question 6

I am very interested in both N-Series 100G and 25G switches, can you provide a comparative analysis?

FS.com · Accepted Answer

1. N8550 series switch is white box switch, support ONIE, so there is no function display, you can install FSOS system, support MLAG, VXLAN and other functions. 2. N8560 series is with system, N8550 is white box switch, so N8560 series switches are a little more expensive than N8550 series. 3. N8560 switch supports openflow, vxlan, EVPN, virtualization, BGP, PFC, ECN, DCBX, ZTP, NETCONF, programmable, MLAG, etc. If you want to use it in cloud service scenario, N8560 is recommended to be more suitable.
