PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series has an 8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module and a 4-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module. These modules support

pluggable optics to support distances up to 80km over single-mode fiber, 300m over multimode fiber, and 15m over copper. The 8-port

10 Gigabit Ethernet module provides up to 64 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single Catalyst 6500 chassis, ideal for deployment in the

aggregation layer of LAN campus and data centers. Both modules are interoperable with the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engine

720 and provide 40 Gbps connection to the switch fabric. Building upon the award-winning Catalyst 6500 Series, these 10 Gigabit

Ethernet modules are backward compatible with all existing Catalyst 6500 line cards and services modules, enabling service providers and

enterprises to offer new Layer 2 through 7 services and network capabilities to increase revenue and user productivity without complete

equipment upgrades.

The Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series 10 Gigabit Ethernet modules are designed for deployment in the distribution and core of campus and data

center for traffic aggregation or for interbuilding, points of presence (POPs), WAN edge, and MAN connections. These modules support

IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation and Cisco EtherChannel

technology for fault-tolerant connectivity and bandwidth scalability of up to 80

Gbps per EtherChannel connection. In addition, they support hardware based quality of service (QoS), access control lists (ACLs), and

jumbo frames to enable secure and predictable performance for bandwidth-intensive applications.
