Gigabit Ethernet Modules for Cisco Catalyst
6807-XL and 6500-E Switches
Gigabit Ethernet line cards serve both campus and data center networking
requirements in a variety of enterprise, commercial, and service provider
environments.
Product Overview
The Cisco
®
Catalyst
®
6807-XL switch offers two new Gigabit Ethernet modules that work with the Catalyst
Supervisor Engine 2T/2TXL. The modules also work in Catalyst 6500 Series Switches.
The Gigabit Ethernet modules serve campus and data center networking requirements in enterprise, commercial,
and service provider environments. They include a 48-port Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module and 48-port Gigabit
Ethernet Fiber Module.
The Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module supports RJ-45 connectors. It supports operational distances of up to
100 meters over Category 5, 5E, and 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) copper cabling. The Gigabit Fiber
Module supports pluggable optics and supports operational distances of up to 80 km over single-mode and
multimode fiber.
There are four different 1-Gbps modules supported by Supervisor 2T and 2TXL:
