6800 Series 10 Gigabit and Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules for
Cisco 6500 Series Switches
Cisco 6500 Series Switches
Product Overview
The Cisco Catalyst
®
6500 Series Switches offer a variety of 10 Gigabit and Gigabit Ethernet modules which work in
conjunction with the new Catalyst
®
6500 Supervisor Engine 2T/2TXL (VS-S2T-10G & VS-S2T-10GXL) to serve
different needs in the campus and data center for enterprise, commercial, and service provider customers. The
modules in this family include the new 6800 Series 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module,16-port 10 Gigabit
Ethernet Copper Module, 48-port Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module, 48-port Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module and 24-
port Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module. The 10 Gigabit Fiber Module supports 10GBASE-CX4, -SR, -LRM, -LX4, -LR, -
ZR and -ER X2 fiber modules to provide operational distances up to 80 km over single-mode fiber. The 10 Gigabit
Ethernet Copper Module supports RJ-45 connectors and operational distance of up to 55 m over Category 6
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) copper cabling; 100 meters over Category 6 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) copper
cabling, 100 meters over Category 6A UTP & STP copper cabling, and 100 meters over Category 7 STP copper
cabling. Similarly Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module supports RJ-45 connectors and provides operational distance of
up to 100 meters over Category 5, 5E & 6 UTP copper cabling. The Gigabit Fiber Modules support pluggable optics
and provide operational distances of up to 80 km over single-mode fiber and over multimode fiber.
6800 Series 16-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module
The 6800 series 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber module is suitable for deployment in access and aggregation
network in Campus and Data Center:
●
WS-X6816-10G-2T: 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module with DFC4 (Figure 1) and
●
WS-X6816-10G-2TXL: 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module DFC4XL (Figure 1)
●
Backplane connection: Connects to the switch fabric using dual full-duplex 20 Gbps switch fabric channels
(40 Gbps total).
●
Chassis/slot support: Can occupy any slot in Cisco Catalyst 6503E, 6504E, 6506E, 6509E, and 6509-V-E.
Can occupy slots 1-6 and 9-13 in a Cisco Catalyst 6513-E.
●
Supervisor engine: Compatible with Supervisor Engine 2T and Supervisor Engine 2TXL
●
Distributed forwarding and performance: Comes equipped with DFC4 or DFC4XL daughter cards,
delivering optimal performance up to a sustained 60 Mpps for L2, IPv4 and MPLS forwarding and 30 Mpps for
IPv6 forwarding.
The 6800 Series 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber module (Figure 1) provides up to 176 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber
ports in a single Cisco Catalyst 6513-E Switch chassis, 352 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber ports in a Cisco Catalyst 6500
Virtual Switching System (VSS) 2T.
