Feature	Description
Chassis/slot restrictions	• The module is not supported in the Catalyst 6503 switch chassis.
	• The WS-X6748-SFP module can occupy any slot in any other
	Catalyst 6500 or Catalyst 6500-E chassis with the exception of the
	Catalyst 6513 chassis where the module must be installed only in
	slots 9–13. The module will not power up if it is installed in
	slots 1–8.
	• The WS-X6848-SFP-2T/-2TXL operates only in a Catalyst 6500
	E-series chassis equipped with a Supervisor Engine 2T-10GE
	• Requires that modules be installed in adjacent slots or, if either
	adjacent slot is unused, you must install a switching-module filler
	plate (Cisco part numbers WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR-E or
	SLOTBLANK-09) rather than a blank slot cover
	(WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR) to maintain an adequate air flow through
	the chassis.

	– Fabric channel 1—Ports 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22,
