As shown in Figure 3-19, the CR5DSFUI407C on the NE40E-X8 switches data for the entire
system at line speed of 480 Gbit/s (240 Gbit/s for the upstream traffic and 240 Gbit/s for the
downstream traffic). This ensures a non-blocked switching network.
The NE40E-X8 has three SFUs working in 2+1 load balancing mode. The entire system
provides a switching capacity at line speed of 1.44 Tbit/s.
The three SFUs load balance services at the same time. When one SFU is faulty or being
replaced, the other two SFUs automatically take over its tasks to ensure normal delivery of
services.
