Hi James,

In this case you would have to upgrade the fan trays and the power supplies or it might be just easier to purchase a new 6509-E chassis.

Good Luck!

Hi,

Is your chassis 6509 or 6509-E

All versions of Supervisor Engine 720-10GE require that a high-speed fan tray (either a fan tray 2 or Catalyst 6500-E series fan tray) be installed in the chassis.

Note Low-speed fan trays do not provide sufficient cooling for Supervisor Engine 720-10GE.

see link for more details:
