Queues per port |
• Oversubscription mode: – Tx—1p7q4t per port group – Rx—1p7q2t per port • Performance mode: – Tx—1p7q4t per port – Rx—8q4t per port |
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) |
Module upgrades available |
|
PoE support |
Not supported. |
Distributed forwarding support |
• WS-X6716-10G-3C comes factory-equipped with a DFC3C daughter card. • WS-X6716-10G-3CXL comes factory-equipped with a DFC3CXL daughter card. • WS-X6816-10G-2T comes factory-equipped with a DFC4-E daughter card. • WS-X6816-10G-2TXL comes factory-equipped with a DFC4-EXL daughter card. |
Pluggable transceivers support |
X2 transceivers are supported. Not all types of X2 transceivers may be supported. For an up-to-date list of supported transceivers, refer to your transceiver compatibility matrices at the following URL. Note WS-6716-10GE does not support X2 transceivers shipped prior to the release of the WS-X6708-10GE with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(18)SXF5. The unsupported X2 transceivers are labeled with a number that ends with -01. This restriction does not apply to the X2-10GB-LRM transceiver. Note Some X2 transceivers shipped prior to the WS-X6716-10GE becoming available might not provide EMI compliance with the WS-X6716-10GE. All X2 transceivers shipped since the WS-X6716-10GE became available provide EMI compliance with the WS-X6716-10GE. |
Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support |
Supported on some X2 transceivers. Note Refer to your software release notes for specific information on which X2 transceivers support DOM and the software release required for support. |
Module front panel LEDs |
STATUS • Green—All diagnostics pass; the module is operational. • Orange—The module is booting or running diagnostics; an overtemperature condition has occurred. LINK • Green—The port is active (the link is connected and operational). • Flashing orange—The port failed diagnostics and is disabled. • Orange—The port is disabled. • Red—The module is resetting; an overtemperature condition has occurred. Note If the module fails to download code and configuration information successfully during the initial reset, the LED stays red; the module does not come online. • Off—The port is not active or the link is not connected. |
