 technology, 

and IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation for fault-tolerant connectivity.

—These modules support the CiscoWorks network-management platform; 

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Versions 1, 2, and 3; and four Remote Monitoring (RMON) 

groups (statistics, history, alarms, and events).  

The Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series is a lead element in Cisco Borderless Network Access architecture, providing 

numerous IP telephony and network security features for the enterprise. 

The Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series delivered the industry's first Ethernet switching modules that provided PoE for 

converged data and voice traffic as well as other powered devices, such as wireless access points. Several Cisco 

Catalyst 6500 Series interface modules support PoE on each interface port, allowing customers to build campus 

multiservice data and voice networks for wiring closets with the following features: 

● 

—Provides power for Cisco Prestandard Inline Power and IEEE 802.3af standard PoE over standard 

Category 5 UTP cable up to 100 meters for such as IP phones and wireless access points  

● 

—Detects the presence of a powered device such as an IP phone and supplies 

inline power automatically  

● 

—Segments IP phones and data endpoints into separate, logical networks 

automatically  

● 

—Simplifies the task of configuring QoS mechanisms for IP 

telephony and more  

● 

—Enables greater security while simultaneously offering 

cost-effective management of changes throughout the organization  

Using existing Category 5 UTP installations, the PoE feature helps enable network administrators to control power 

distribution from a central location. Configuring Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches with uninterruptible-power-supply 

(UPS) systems helps ensure that building power outages will not affect network telephony connections, providing 

greater network availability. 

Enabled by a daughter card for "pay-as-you-grow" flexibility, several Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series 10/100 and 

10/100/1000 Ethernet interface modules support PoE. Some of these interface modules support the IEEE 802.3af 

standard as an additional upgrade option. The Cisco Catalyst PoE feature implementation passes the required 

domestic and international safety regulations and compliance measures.
