Cisco WS-X6716-10T-3C
Cisco WS-X6716-10T-3C, COUIA3XCAB Catalyst 6500 16-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module with DFC3C
WS-X6716-10T-3C consists of 16 X2 10 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports module for Cisco Catalyst 6500 series only.* WS-X6716-10T-3C is shipped with WS-X6716-10T and WS-F6700-DFC3C and primarily designed for Supervisor Engine 720 with 3C daughter card to support Cisco 6500 Virtual Switching System (VSS) 1440. WS-X6716-10T-3C supports RJ-45 connectors and provides operational distance of up to 100m, and it also can be used to create a virtual Switch link in VSS up to 4 10GE ports in performance mode.
Cisco announces its first 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet copper module for the Cisco Catalyst® 6500 Series. The Cisco Catalyst 16-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Copper Module extends the 10 Gigabit Ethernet portfolio on the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series, providing up to 130 copper ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet in a single Cisco Catalyst 6509 Switch chassis. It is ideal for deployment in the data center access for high-speed server connectivity and also for switch-to-switch connectivity within a 330-foot (100-meter) distance. The new 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet copper module complements the existing modules and integrated services on the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series, enabling customers to build scalable, resilient, and manageable data centers and help meet their growing business needs to consolidate and virtualize servers and storage devices while increasing resource utilization and reducing capital expenses.
