Chapter 1 Product Overview
1.1 Product Overview
With the rapid development of the Internet, requirements for high speed broadband
communication cannot be satisfied by the traditional low-speed services, such as
telephone, fax, telegraph, etc. High speed systems are required to carry out the
broadband services, including high-speed Internet access, video telephone, Video on
Demand (VOD), etc. The users also require the higher-speed Internet access. In such
a background, as a method of broadband access, Ethernet gains much attention on the
market for its low cost, high speed and ease of use. Accordingly, Huawei Technologies
Co. Ltd. (hereafter referred to as Huawei) launches the Quidway Series Ethernet
Switches to meet the fast growing demand for broadband network development.
