Hardware support on new Cat6500 SUP720 (WS-X6548-GE-TX and WS-SVC-NAM-2)

[iferras]

We are planning a new deployment with Cat6500 and SUP720, and we are interested on installing the 48-port fabric-enabled 10/100/1000 Module (WS-X6548-GE-TX) but it is not supported with latest 12.2()SX available today.

Is there a plan to support this module WS-X6548-GE-TX? When?

Is supported NAM-2 on Cat6500 with SUP720?

[Prashanth Krishnappa]

WS-SVC-NAM-2 is supported in Sup720

WS-X6548-GE-TX support is planned but not committed yet.

The customer is willing to have installed WS-SVC-NAM-2 and WS-X6548-GE-TX with Sup720. As was posted before NAM2 is supported on IOS 12.2(14)SX1 and newer versions, but these releases doesn't support WS-X6548-GE-TX yet. On the other hand, WS-X6548-GE-TX is supported on CatOS 8.1.1 but this release doesn't support WS-SVC-NAM-2.

Is it already planned the support of WS-X6548-GE-TX within IOS12.2()SX? Is there any other option for the compatibility between this 2 modules?
