The Catalyst 6500 Series meet the demands of today's most demanding and fast-growing enterprise and service-provider networks with high-performance gigabit Ethernet switching modules. The Catalyst 6500 Series Gigabit Ethernet switching modules are ideal for deployment in gigabit backbone and server-farm configurations or for aggregation of high-density 10/100-megabits per second (mbps) wiring closets.
Supporting advanced crossbar switching fabric architecture, the Catalyst 6500 series scales to provide 256 Gbps of backplane bandwidth. With support for Forwarding Information Base (FIB)-based technology using the proven CEF architecture that also enables distributed forwarding (dCEF), the Catalyst 6500 series can further scale in performance switching up to 100+ Mpps while providing a comprehensive set of intelligent services such as advanced quality of service (QoS), high availability, and advanced security services.
