Cisco Catalyst 6500 8-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Module

The Cisco 8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module is designed for deployment in the distribution and core of campus and data center for traffic aggregation or for interbuilding, points of presence (POPs), WAN edge, and MAN connections. This module support IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation and Cisco EtherChannel technology for fault-tolerant connectivity and bandwidth scalability of up to 80 Gbps per EtherChannel connection. In addition, it support hardware based quality of service (QoS), access control lists (ACLs), and jumbo frames to enable secure and predictable performance for bandwidth-intensive applications.
