Information About WS-X6708-10G-3C
The WS-X6708-10G-3C module offers eight 10GbE ports utilizing X2 optics and connects to the switch fabric with 40 Gbps bandwidth (80 Gbps full duplex). It comes equipped with the DFC3C forwarding engine, enabling distributed forwarding and support for up to 256,000 routing entries. This model also provides CoS and DSCP-based queue mapping and advanced scheduling mechanisms such as DWRR, WRED, and Shaped Round Robin (SRR) for optimized traffic management.
Key Features:
- Type: 8-port 10GbE Ethernet fiber module for Catalyst 6500 Series
- Optics Type: X2 transceivers for 10GbE fiber connections
- Switch Fabric Bandwidth: 40 Gbps (80 Gbps full duplex)
- Forwarding Engine: DFC3C with support for 256,000 IPv4 routes
- Oversubscription Ratio: 2:1 for optimized resource allocation
- Queuing Architecture: Receive: 8q4t; Transmit: 1p7q4t
- Queuing Support: CoS and DSCP queue mapping with WRED, DWRR, and SRR scheduling
- Multicast Replication: Hardware-based L2 and L3 multicast with 2 replication engines (20 GB each)
- Jumbo Frame Support: Up to 9216 bytes for bridged and routed packets
The WS-X6708-10G-3C delivers scalable 10GbE performance, advanced queuing, and efficient multicast replication for high-density, mission-critical Catalyst 6500 network environments.
