1 Overview
1.1 About the RG-S6580-48CQ8QC
The RG-S6580-48CQ8QC switch is a next-generation switch featuring high-performance,
high-density, and low-latency launched by Ruijie Networks for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and
other applications. The RG-S6580-48CQ8QC switch delivers high-density 100GE access,
400GE uplink ports, and diverse data center features. It can be used with Ruijie’s RG-N18000-
XH and RG-S6980-64QC switches for a high-performance and high-reliability data center
network.

Caution
Different power modules are interchangeable. That is, the switch allows concurrentAC and
HVDC input. For example, input 1 uses mains electricity (AC power) and input 2 use
Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) HVDC power.
1.3 Chassis
The RG-S6580-48CQ8QC hardware system consists of a chassis, a power supply system,
and a cooling system.
Power supply system: provides two power module slots and supports 1+1 power
redundancy.
Cooling system: provides six fan module slots and supports 5+1 fan redundancy.
Note
The management software is already pre-installed in the system.

1.3.4 Cooling
The RG-S6580-48CQ8QC adopts the front-to-rear airflow.Air flows in through the ports and
out through the power module, as shown in Figure 1-5.
Caution
Maintain a minimum clearance of 200 mm (7.87 in.) around the equipment for air
circulation.
At least five fan modules are required. If any slot is unoccupied, install a filler panel to
enable proper airflow and to keep dust out of the chassis.
Dust the equipment every three months to avoid blocking the ventilation openings on the
housing.
You are advised to install six fan modules and use the filler panel only when replacing the
fan module.
