According to Huawei's official data, CloudEngine 16800-X has three major capability advantages, X1 super powerful performance: supports a maximum of 288 800GE ports, supports the smooth evolution of services for 10 years, provides the industry's best 3.5 microseconds cross-board forwarding delay, and achieves 90% high throughput for networklevel load balancing. X2 Hyperconverged bearing: Relying on hyperconverged Ethernet to achieve general computing, high-performance computing, intelligent computing and storage converged bearing, TCO reduced by 36%; X3 super intelligent network: Through the industry's first network digital map, to achieve a multi-cloud network picture presentation, one-second simulation of configuration change, application of network one-click navigation, network fault one-step positioning, to create the ultimate operation and maintenance experience.

Qiu Yuefeng, vice president of Huawei's data communication product line, said that the white paper of China's Computing Power Development Index shows that it is expected that the proportion of intelligent computing power will be as high as 70% in 2023, the number of AI large model parameters represented by ChatGPT will increase by 115 times, and it is expected that AI computing power will increase by 500 times in 2030. Massive data attacks, data centers need ultra-powerful performance equipment to build the industry's intelligent computing "highway." This release of the industry's first 800GE data center core switch CloudEngine 16800-X series, based on three X capabilities, with the industry's highest density 288×800GE port number, can efficiently support AI training and other services, 100% release computing power.

It is worth mentioning that the "Data center Switch Market Five-Year Forecast Report" released by Dell Oro Group, a research institution, shows that the adoption rate of 800GE switch ports is expected to exceed 400GE in 2025.
