Slots not occupied by supervisor engines can be used for modules. Check your software release notes for any restrictions on the type of module that can be installed.

Chapter 1 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Chassis Overview

Catalyst 6503-E

•Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, and the Supervisor Engine 720 require additional cooling. You must install the optional high-speed fan tray (FAN-MOD-3HS) in the chassis when any of these three supervisor engines are installed.

•The uplink ports are fully functional on the redundant supervisor engine when it is in standby mode.

Note In systems with redundant supervisor engines, both supervisor engines must be the same model and have the same daughter card configurations. Each supervisor engine must have the resources to run the switch on its own, which means that all supervisor engine resources are duplicated.

Identical supervisor engine memory configurations are recommended but are not required as long as the supervisor engine with the smaller memory configuration is sufficient to run the configured features of the switch. Additionally, each supervisor engine must have its own flash device and console port connections.

Catalyst 6503-E

The Catalyst 6503-E switch is an enhanced version of the Catalyst 6503 switch. The 3-slot (numbered from (1) top to (3) bottom), 4 RU, horizontal chassis supports redundant power supplies and redundant supervisor engines. It also supports a greater power capacity per slot than the Catalyst 6503 switch chassis and supports the WS-X67xx and WS-X68xx switching modules. The Catalyst 6503-E switch chassis is NEBS L3 compliant. Supervisor engine support and restrictions for the Catalyst 6503-E includes:

•Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, Supervisor Engine 720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T are supported.

Note Refer to your software release notes for specific information on the minimum software release versions required to support the supervisor engines in the Catalyst 6503-E chassis.

•Supervisor engines must be installed in slot 1 or slot 2.

Note

•Supervisor Engine 720, Supervisor Engine 720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T have a built-in switching fabric. The Switch Fabric Modules (WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2) are not supported by Supervisor Engine 720 and Supervisor Engine 720-10GE and cannot be installed in the same chassis.
