Ruijie RG-S7808C 8-Slot 12Tbps Modular Campus Core Switch(Chassis)

Q1: What components are sold separately for the RG‑S7800 series?

A: The chassis and line cards are sold separately. After selecting the chassis model (e.g. RG‑S7808C), you must choose supervisor modules, switch fabric modules, power modules, and line cards according to your port, performance, and PoE requirements.

Q2: Can I customize the switch configuration?

A: Yes. Choose control-engine (supervisor), power modules, fabric modules, and line cards based on specific needs. Ruijie recommends contacting customer service to design a configuration that meets your requirements .

Q3: Are the line cards and modules hot-swappable?

A: Yes. Line cards, power supplies, fan trays, and supervisor modules are all hot-swappable to minimize downtime .

Q4: Does the chassis support redundancy?

A: Absolutely. The chassis offers 1+1 redundancy for supervisors, fans, and N+M redundancy for power supplies. Switch fabric modules can also be dual‑installed for high availability .

Q5: What virtualization capabilities are included?

A: Features like Virtual Switch Unit (VSU) and Virtual Switch Device (VSD) allow multi-chassis or multi-domain virtualization, simplifying operations and resource allocation .

Q6: What are the switching capacity and performance specs?

A: For example, the RG‑S7808C supports up to 12 Tbps switching capacity and 9,000 Mpps packet forwarding .

Q7: What line cards are available?

A: Multiple types are supported: e.g. 48×GE electrical, 48×GE SFP, 32×10GE+4×40GE, 8×100GE QSFP28, and combo, depending on the supervisor model and chassis .

Q8: Does it support advanced Layer‑3 protocols?

A: Yes. Support includes IPv4/IPv6, VRF, OSPF, BGP, IS‑IS, BFD, ECMP, and multicast routing .

Q9: What redundancy and reliability features are included?

A: Features include dual-boot flash memory, hot patches, optical module fault isolation, fast protocol-level failover (50–200 ms), CPU and NFPP protection .

Q10: How does the chassis handle energy usage?

A: It uses Energy‑Efficient Ethernet, variable-speed fans (256‑step), high-efficiency power modules, and dynamic CPU power control .

Q11: What are hardware monitoring and maintenance features?

A: The system monitors hardware health (fans, power, temperature, voltage), supports SNMP, RMON, syslog, netconf, OpenFlow, gRPC, CLI, web UI, and zero‑touch provisioning .

Q12: Where can the RG‑S7800 series be deployed?

A: Ideal as a modular campus core or data-center edge switch, used in MANs, campus, or data center aggregation .

Q13: What are the chassis sizes and slot counts?

A: Models range from 4 RU/5 slots (RG-S7805C) to 10 RU/8 slots (RG-S7810C). All support dual supervisor and multiple line card slots .

Q14: What cabling/backplane architecture is used?

A: Uses a Clos non‑blocking architecture with backplane‑free design (orthogonal Clos), ensuring line-rate, non‑blocking switching .

Q15: What QoS and security features are supported?

A: Includes CPU protection policies (CPP), NFPP, uRPF, MAC- and IP‑based ACLs, SP/WRR QoS, link aggregation, sFlow, SPAN, VLAN, and VXLAN gateway .

Q16: How do I order the RG‑S7800 series?

A: Ordering requires selecting chassis model, supervisor, switch fabric, power modules, and line cards tailored to your deployment. Consult Ruijie sales for module selection guidelines .
