Feature

Description

 

 

Chassis/slot restrictions

Not supported in the Catalyst 6503 chassis.

 

Supported only in slots 9–13 in the Catalyst 6513 chassis and does

 

not power up in slots 1–8.

 

When the WS-X6716-10G module is installed in a Catalyst 6500

 

E-series chassis or a Catalyst 6509-NEB-A chassis, the

 

configuration is NEBS 3 compliant (chassis supports operating

 

temperatures up to 55°C).

 

When the WS-X6716-10G module is installed in a Catalyst 6500

 

non-E series chassis that is equipped with a fan tray 2 and a

 

2500 W or larger power supply, the configuration is not NEBS 3

 

compliant (chassis supports operating temperatures up to 40°C

 

only).

 

Support in the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A chassis requires two

 

FAN-MOD-09 fan trays.

 

WS-X6816-10G-2T/-2TXL is supported only in Catalyst 6500

 

E-series switches equipped with a Supervisor Engine 2T.

 

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 connection

Dual switch-fabric connections:

 

Fabric channel 1: Ports 1–8

 

Fabric channel 2: Ports 9–16

 

 

Fabric channel speed

20 Gb/sec (dual channel, 40 Gb/sec total)
