Module GE 24xSFP for Catalyst 6500
Designed for high performance Enterprise and Service Provider distribution, core layers, data-center, Web-hosting and Metro Ethernet applications, CEF720 mixed media interface modules provide line-rate gigabit Ethernet forwarding using twisted pair or fiber optic cabling with the following operational advantages:
Backplane connection-Connects to the switch fabric using dual full duplex 20 Gbps switch fabric channels (40 Gbps total), a single 20 Gbps channel is suppported.
Chassis/slot support-Can occupy any slot in Cisco Catalyst 6506, 6509, and 6509-NEB-A and slots 9 through 13 in Catalyst 6513. This module is supported in all slots of the Catalyst 6513.
Supervisor engine-Supported by all versions of Supervisor Engine 720
Base forwarding mode and performance-Uses the central CEF engine located on the supervisor engine to forward packets up to 30 Mpps per system in its base configuration.
Distributed forwarding upgrade option and performance-When equipped with the optional field-upgradeable dCEF forwarding daughter cards, the interface module delivers optimal performance, up to a sustained 48 Mpps per slot.
Optics-Support hot-pluggable modular small form-factor pluggable (SFP).
