Huawei-NetEngine AR6710-L50T2X4

The Huawei NetEngine AR6710-L50T2X4 is a high-performance 1U enterprise access router designed for headquarters, large branches, campus network egress, SD-WAN, and high-density enterprise WAN deployments. It provides 48 × GE electrical LAN ports, 2 × GE electrical WAN ports, and 2 × 10GE optical WAN ports, with 4 SIC expansion slots for additional connectivity and service modules. Huawei officially classifies it within the NetEngine AR6700 enterprise access-router series.

Description

The Huawei NetEngine AR6710-L50T2X4 is an enterprise-class access router designed to consolidate WAN connectivity, routing, security, SD-WAN, VPN, and other network services into a single scalable platform.

The router provides 48 × Gigabit Ethernet electrical ports for high-density LAN connectivity, together with 2 × Gigabit Ethernet electrical ports and 2 × 10GE optical ports for WAN connectivity. Huawei specifies that the fixed WAN ports can also be switched to LAN interfaces, providing flexibility when adapting the router to different network architectures.

The AR6710-L50T2X4 is particularly suitable for high-density branch offices and enterprise headquarters where a large number of wired LAN devices need to connect directly to the routing platform. Its two 10GE optical interfaces provide high-bandwidth uplinks toward aggregation, data-center, or core infrastructure.

The platform supports SD-WAN, enterprise routing, VPN, security, QoS, NAT, and other WAN services. It is designed around Huawei’s high-performance SoC architecture, integrating multi-core processing and hardware acceleration for encryption/decryption and traffic processing.

For expansion, the router provides 4 SIC slots, allowing additional interface and service modules to be installed according to deployment requirements. This makes the platform adaptable to different WAN technologies and enterprise connectivity requirements.

The AR6710-L50T2X4 is housed in a compact 1U rack-mountable chassis measuring approximately 44.4 × 442 × 420 mm, making it suitable for standard enterprise network cabinets and data-center racks. Huawei specifies both 100–240 V AC and -48 to -60 V DC input options for this model family.
