Gigabit Ethernet Switching Modules
1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Module (WS-X6501-10GEX4)
The 1-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet switching module (WS-X6501-10GEX4) provides one 10-Gigabit Ethernet port accessible through an SC connector on the front panel. (See Figure 2-26.) The WS-X6501-10GEX4 module has a single fabric channel interface. The switching module is upgradable to support distributed forwarding with the installation of an optional Distributed Forwarding Card (WS-F6K-DFC).

1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Base Module (WS-X6502-10GE)
The 1-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet switching module (WS-X6502-10GE) consists of a 10-Gigabit Ethernet Base Module (WS-X6502-10GE) and an Optical Interface Module (OIM). (See Figure 2-27.) The following OIMs are currently available:
•WS-G6483 10GBASE-ER Serial 1550-nm Extended Reach OIM
•WS-G6488 10GBASE-LR Serial 1310-nm Long Haul OIM
The WS-G6483 OIM provides one serial 1550-nm 10-Gigabit Ethernet port through an SC connector. The WS-G6488 OIM provides one serial 1310-nm 10-Gigabit Ethernet port through an SC connector. The switching module is upgradable to support distributed forwarding with an optional Distributed Forwarding Card (WS-F6K-DFC).
The QoS port architecture (Rx/Tx) for this module is 1p1q8t/1p2q1t.

16-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switching Module (WS-X6516-GBIC)
The 16-port Gigabit Ethernet switching module (WS-X6516-GBIC) provides 16 switched, full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet ports that you can configure with any combination of 1000BASE-SX, LX/LH, and ZX GBICs, copper GBICs, or CWDM GBICs. (See Figure 2-28.)
Note CWDM GBICs are used with the CWDM Passive Optical System. For more information on the CWDM Passive Optical System, refer to the Installation Note for the CWDM Passive Optical System.
