6500's with 10GE mod

[dennis-wilson]

I'm about to do a data center migration and I'm replacing all of my core switching. My plan is two 6509's in the core and 4948-10GE's at the access layer to provide 10gig back to the core. I'm a little confused on the fiber connectors available on the 6500 modules. Are the 4948-10GE's able to connect to the 6500's using the WS-X6704-10GE module?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Dennis,

The Cisco 4948-10GE is shipping out with X2-10GB-LR which is 10 Km on SMF, the WS-X6704-10GE is shippped out with XenPAK 10 GE Module. You can establish the optical connectivity between the 10GE-X2 and the XenPAK Module.

You can also refer to the attached ZIP File that contains a PDF on Cisco Catalyst 4900 Series Switch.

Thanks and Regards
