SUP-720-3B - 10G support

Scott Jones

Hello everyone -- I read over the chart for support of the 16-port 10G module for the 6500-E chassis, but I'm having issues completely understanding the matrix and what's required to support it.  We've got dual SUP-720-3B modules with PFC3 daughter cards, which looks like it's supported, but I was hoping someone has done this and can confirm it is accurate, and any caveats or gotchas that people have come across.

Thanks all

Which 16 port 10Gbps module are you referring to ?

I haven't used them but the spec sheets are usually accurate but there may be some caveats depending on what else you have in your chassis and depending on the PFC/DFC versions.

Hi SJ

The 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module is interoperable with all models of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Virtual Switching Supervisor Engine 720 with 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks or Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engine 720, including VS-S720-10G-3C, VS-S720-10G-3CXL, WS-Sup720, WS-Sup720-3B, and WS-Sup720-3BXL. When mixing DFCs in the same chassis, the chassis will operate in the mode of the lowest common denominator.
