Adopting compact design, CX600-X1/X2 is 220mm depth and

can be in the same rack or cabinet with access equipment
(DSLAM, MSAN, ect). With 20/40G capacity, CX600-X1/X2
supports 2*10G/4*10G and flexible interface type such as GE,
FE, E1, etc, meeting the requirement of universal scenario
access. The future evolution with 40/80G forwarding capacity
makes it ready for the future network development.

Intelligent &Powerful L3 functions

Based on the unified mature multi-service platform VRP,
CX600-X1/X2 offers powerful L3 functions. For HQoS, The
CX600-X1/X2 supports various traffic classification methods
and service aware policies. It can classify services with small
granularity and great flexibility. The CX600-X1/X2 provides
5-level hierarchical. For mobile backhaul, CX600-X1/X2
supplies the most mature clock synchronization, such as ACR,
Sync. Ethernet, and 1588v2, achieves GPS-grade Clock for
any mobile network; Meanwhile, CX600-X1/X2 integrates
intelligent functions for FMC applications, meeting the trend
of intelligent service downward.

Uniform Platform & Management

CX600-X1/X2 is uniform platform and uniform management
with Huawei CX600 series. It supports end equipment plug
&play, end-to-end service configuration. Working with the
backbone and edge equipments such as NE40E, ME60,CX600
.CX600-X1/X2 helps operators to build metro that is multi-
service bearing, network hierarchy clear, easy operation and
maintenance.

CX600-X1/X2 can also interoperate with other vendor

equipment, achieving seamless access at the edge and all the
L3 functions interoperation with metro, effectively protecting
operator’s investment.
