Which 6500 parts do I need?
Start with the supervisor in your chassis. Line cards, forwarding cards and supervisors need to be supported together and by the software you run: WS-X68 cards and DFC4 forwarding cards are built for the Supervisor 2T, and WS-X67 cards with DFC3 forwarding cards were built for the Supervisor 720. A DFC3 forwarding card is not supported with the Sup2T: a supported WS-X67 card runs under the Sup2T with a CFC, or with a compatible DFC4 upgrade, depending on the exact card. Check that your chassis is an E-series chassis where a part requires one. Size the power supply to the cards and PoE you run. Give us your chassis, supervisor and card part numbers and we will confirm a part before you order.
Frequently asked questions
What does the 3C, 3CXL or 2T in a line card part number mean?
It shows the forwarding card installed: DFC3C or DFC3CXL for Supervisor 720 systems, and DFC4 (2T) or DFC4XL (2TXL) for Supervisor 2T systems. XL versions have larger forwarding tables.
