Huawei HG8240BT


[link to this post]
 
Would anyone happen to know which variety of HG8240 the HG8240BT is based on, or are there perhaps a couple of versions?

I know there were at least two BT versions of the box but am clear which Huawei model these are.

There's an HG8240 version which has no Gigabit Ethernet ports. This can be eliminated.

There's an HG8240 revision that appears to superficially match the Openreach kit.

Then there's the HG8240H which is a more powerful bit of kit that looks identical or close to it.

Can't find any evidence of superficial hardware changes between the devices just specs and some security changes.

Have you looked here: EchoLife HG8240
I know it might looks different, but the ports are all still there, just the LEDS are located different.

This site seems to have a huge array of Huawei ONTs: https://www.router-switch.com/huawei-ont-price-spec....

Never mind. The form factor is that of an HG8240. The label is that of an HG8240.

The question is which revision of the 8240 and, hence, what the layer 2 forwarding performance is.

Mystery solved - 1 Gbps.

Across the switch or bridge to WAN?
