ZXR10 5900E series MPLS easy-maintenance switches are box-like layer 3 MPLS routing switches that
deliver superior integrated network services for space-constrained environments in Enterprise networks.
It can serve as an aggregation switch in enterprise networks and campus networks, or act as a gigabit
access TOR switch in IDC.
Powered by European standard hardware architecture, state-of-the-art software platform, the industry’s
first "Easy-maintenance" design philosophy, and industry-leading MPLS capability, ZXR10 5900E is a
milestone switch presented by ZTE Corporation. With ZXR10 5900E, you can build highly reliable, secure
and scalable networks, while ensuring terrific user experiences.
ZXR10 5900E offers the following switch types:
5916E, 5928E, 5928E-FI and 5952E. The interfaces
offered by these switches are listed below:
5916E:12*GE RJ45 + 1* expansion card slot
5928E: 24*GE RJ45 + 1* expansion card slot
5928E-FI: 24*GE SFP+ 1* expansion card slot
5952E: 16*GE RJ45/SFP + 4*subcard slots+
1*expansion card slot
The expansion card slot can be equipped with the
following types of expansion cards:
4 GE RJ45 /4 GE SFP /4 10GE SFP+ /2 10GE SFP+
Features
ZXR10 5900E series switches fully support all the leading L2/L3/MPLS features and provide big switching
capacity, high density GE ports and flexible GE/10GE uplink ports, and therefore are suitable to be placed
at campus networks.
Modular Design Brings Scalability
ZXR10 5952E is able to provide ultimate flexible electrical/optical interface combinations for users:
5952E is a 2U-high switch. Each of its four subcard slots can be equipped with 8*GE RJ45 cards or 8*GE
SFP cards;
5900E supports dual modular power supply, while 5952E in addition supports field-replaceable fan-tray.

continuously.
Full Service Support
ZXR10 5900E supports diversified VLAN features, including Port-based VLAN, Subnet VLAN, Protocol-
based VLAN, Selective QinQ and VLAN translation, in order to separate/distinguish different Enterprise
users' services.
Multicast-based technologies like video-surveillance and videoconference are becoming more and more
popular these days. ZXR10 5900E fully supports L2/L3 multicast, including IGMP snooping, Filtering, Proxy
and Fastleave, MVR (Multicast VLAN Registration) and PIM-SM to facilitate deployment of these services.
ZXR10 5900E supports voice VLAN (which means the automatic assignment of dedicated VLAN and QoS
strategy to voice equipment), thus enabling the voice traffic to enjoy high priority.
ZXR10 5900E fully supports MPLS L2/L3 VPN technology, providing an economical reliable VPN solution
for Enterprise campus or branch office leased line service.
ZXR10 5900E also supports MCE, enabling it to run multiple VPN instances without running MPLS and
relieving the pressure on PE (provider edge) equipment.
Multi-Core Speedup
ZXR10 5900E is equipped with a new-generation dual-core CPU processor, which greatly improves
processing efficiency.
Dual-core CPU greatly enhances the processing capability for data, voice, video and complex data
communication protocols. Virtual multi-core technology and dual-core processing architecture improve
control plane performance and control system reliability.
Easy-Maintenance
With innovative "easy-maintenance" concept incorporated in every detail of the design, ZXR10 5900E
brings ultimate efficiency and simplicity for the maintenance routines, cutting down the operating costs of
the network through simple yet efficient methods.
GVRP VLAN Registration Protocol can help network administrators reduce network configuration
workload and easily deploy large amounts of VLANs in complicated networking environments. ZXR10
5900E series switches support the implementation, distribution, registration and transmission of VLAN
attributes in dynamic GVRP pattern, which can simplify VLAN configuration management, and reduce
network interconnection problems caused by inconsistent configuration.
Thanks to ZXR10 5900E's 220mm depth, it costs users little space to install the switch. All the hardware
components, including the power supply, all the access interfaces and uplink interfaces, fan modules (only

5952E supports replaceable fan module) are front accessible, making it convenient to administrate the
switches in space-constrained environments.
The innovative M-Button function enables the manager to fetch important equipment information
including port/memory/CPU status in case of network problems by reading the interface indicators,
enabling instant trouble-shooting, and thus reducing OPEX to the utmost extent by shrinking network
downtime. M-button adds no more investments; only extra meanings are endowed to the status of the
interface indicators.
ZXR10 5900E supports Zero Configuration, which means the switch can automatically download software
images and start-up configurations. Zero configuration truly enables plug and play and reduces the
requirement for experienced engineers.
Green
Following green and eco-friendly design philosophy, ZXR10 5900E helps the customers save energy and
reduce power consumption from all the aspects of design:
ZXR10 5900E adopts the advanced chip technology, so the power consumption of the main chip can be
dramatically reduced.
ZXR10 5900E fully supports IEEE 802.3az, which means it can set the port to idle state dynamically when
there's no traffic transmission over the port. In this way, electricity can be saved, and the power
consumption of a single port can be reduced by 70%.
ZXR10 5900E has applied the latest energy-saving techniques, such as dynamically adjusting port power
according to cable length.
The materials used during the life span of 5900E completely meet RoHS and WEEE standards.
Enhanced Security
ZXR10 5900E supports diversified mechanisms to guarantee the security of the network:
CPU DDOS protection capability helps the equipment to mitigate the influence caused by attacks, while
the equipment itself won't be brought down, which ensures high network stability.
DAI (Dynamic ARP inspection) function and IP/MAC binding help prevent against DOS (Denial of Service)
attacks.
802.1X can be used for authentication purpose. Working together with a policy server, the user control
policy can be applied to 3900E after the authentication is done. Bandwidth limit/Qos strategy can thus be
implemented automatically.
Enhanced routing protocol communications, including simple password test and MD5 authentication can
be used to prevent the alteration of routing protocol interactions.

Traffic mirroring/analyzing functions like RMON (remote monitoring), SPAN (switched port analyzer),
RSPAN (remote switched port analyzer) and sFlow help analyze real-time network condition.
