The Cisco WS-X6748-GE-TX-3CXL is a high-performance, 48-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet module for Catalyst 6500 Series switches. It supports copper RJ-45 connectivity and includes the integrated DFC3CXL daughter card for distributed forwarding. This combination delivers high throughput, low latency, and compatibility with Cisco IOS and Catalyst OS in enterprise switching environments.
Ideal for dense Gigabit Ethernet access or aggregation, this module supports optional Power over Ethernet, large buffers, and advanced QoS. With a 720-Gbps switch fabric connection, it provides scalable, reliable switching across Catalyst 6500 chassis deployments, supporting high-bandwidth voice, video, and data traffic.
What the WS-X6748-GE-TX-3CXL Does:
- Delivers 48-port wire-speed 10/100/1000 switching
Includes DFC3CXL for distributed forwarding and high performance. Supports optional PoE via external daughter card Operates on 720-Gbps switch fabric with 400 Mpps forwarding Compatible with Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engines and chassis
What It Was Made For:
- Enterprise aggregation and high-density Gigabit access
Environments demanding distributed Layer 2/3 forwarding PoE deployments for phones, APs, and cameras (with daughter card) Support for mixed traffic: voice, video, data with QoS Scalable designs using Catalyst 6500 core switching architecture
