Network Switches
CloudEngine S5731-S Series Switches
The CloudEngine S5731-S series offers a range of standard gigabit access switches, with all-GE electrical/optical ports and fixed 10 GE uplink ports. Built on Huawei's unified Versatile Routing Platform (VRP), CloudEngine S5731-S switches provide enhanced Layer 3 features, simplified Operations & Maintenance (O&M), Intelligent Stack (iStack) technology — allowing multiple stacking-capable switches to function as a single logical switch — flexible Ethernet networking, and mature Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) features. The series is widely used in a range of scenarios, including enterprise campus access and aggregation, as well as data center access.

Automated Network Services
Unleash the power of Virtual Extensible Local Area Network (VXLAN)-based virtualization to automate the deployment of virtual networks, transforming a single-purpose network into a multi-purpose one and reducing Operating Expenditure (OPEX) by up to 80%.
Simplified O&M
Virtualize the core/aggregation switch + access switch + Access Point (AP) into a single logical device with Super Virtual Fabric (SVF), simplifying network O&M (SVF clients are plug-and-play).
Integrated Network Security
Secure operations with built-in security probes, which precisely identify potentially malicious traffic and collaborate with the Huawei HiSec Insight Security Situation Awareness System to achieve network-wide collaborative security protection.
