Table 1-17 Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch Features Feature Description Chassis Nine vertical slots. Slots are numbered from 1 (right) to 9 (left). Supervisor engines Supports Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, and Supervisor Engine 720-10GE. NoteRefer to your software release notes for the minimum software release versions required to support the supervisor engines. –Supervisor Engine 2 must be installed in slot 1 and slot 2. –Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, and Supervisor Engine 720-10GE must be installed in slot 5 and slot 6. NoteSlots not occupied by supervisor engines can be used for modules. Check your software release notes for any restrictions on the type of module that can be installed. Supervisor Engine 720 and Supervisor Engine 720-10GE have a built-in switching fabric. Switch Fabric Modules (WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2) are not supported by Supervisor Engine 720 and Supervisor Engine 720-10GE. You cannot install the Switch Fabric Modules and the Supervisor Engine 720 or the Supervisor Engine 720-10GE in the same chassis. Supervisor Engine 32 and Supervisor Engine 32 PISA do not support the Switch Fabric Modules (WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2). You cannot install the Switch Fabric Modules and the Supervisor Engine 32 or the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA in the same chassis. The uplink ports are fully functional on all redundant supervisor engine models when they are in standby mode. NoteIn systems with redundant supervisor engines, both supervisor engines must be the same model and have the same daughter card configurations. Each supervisor engine must have the resources to run the switch on its own, which means that all supervisor engine resources are duplicated. Identical supervisor engine memory configurations are recommended, but are not required as long as the supervisor engine with the smaller memory configuration is sufficient to run the configured features of the switch. Additionally, each supervisor engine must have its own flash device and console port connections.
1-51 Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide OL-5781-08 Chapter 1 Product Overview Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch ModulesSupports up to eight Catalyst 6500 series modules. WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2 Switch Fabric Modules must be installed in slot 5 or slot 6. NoteMixing WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2 Switch Fabric Modules in the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A chassis is allowed. Some Catalyst 6500 series modules may: –Not be supported –Require that you install a Supervisor Engine 720 –Have chassis slot restrictions –Require a specific software release level to operate NoteCheck your software release notes for specific information. Backplane bandwidth 32 GBps shared bus. 256 GBps switch fabric. 720 GBps switch fabric. Clock and VTT modules Two replaceable clock modules (CLK-7600=) provide clocking signals to the EOBC channel and the switching bus. Three replaceable voltage termination (VTT) modules (WS-C6K-VTT=) provide reference voltage for bus signals. Fan tray The chassis supports two hot-swappable fan trays. With one fan tray installed, the chassis supports operating temperatures up to 104°F (40°C). With both fan trays installed, the chassis supports operating temperatures up to 131°F (55°C). One fan tray model is available: –FAN-MOD-09 (High-speed fan tray—760 CFM). Supports Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, and Supervisor Engine 720. NoteEach fan tray contains four individual fans. The individual fans are not field replaceable; you must replace the fan tray in the event of a fan failure. Fan tray STATUS LED –Red—One or more individual fans have failed. –Green—Fan tray is operating normally. Table 1-17 Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch Features (continued) Feature Description
1-52 Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide OL-5781-08 Chapter 1 Product Overview Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch Power supplySupports one or two power supplies. The following models are supported: –WS-CAC-2500W (2500 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CDC-2500W (2500 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-3000W (3000 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-4000W-US (4000 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-4000W-INT (4000 W AC-input power supply). –PWR-4000-DC (4000 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-6000W (6000 W AC-input power supply). –PWR-6000-DC (6000 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-8700W-E (8700 W AC-input power supply). NoteThe 6000 W AC-input and DC-input power supplies and the 8700 W AC-input power supply are limited to 4500 W maximum output when installed in the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A chassis. Installed power supplies can be of different ratings. Installed power supplies can also be both AC-input, both DC-input, or one AC-input and one DC-input. Power supplies can be configured in either redundant or combined mode. All Catalyst 6500 series AC-input power supplies require single-phase source AC. Source AC can be out of phase between multiple power supplies or multiple AC-power plugs on the same power supply because all AC power supply inputs are isolated. NoteFor proper operation of the power supply OUTPUT FAIL LED, systems with single power supplies must be configured with a minimum of one fan tray and one supervisor engine. Systems with dual power supplies must have a minimum configuration of one fan tray, one supervisor engine, and one additional module. Failure to meet these minimum configuration requirements can cause a false power supply output fail signal. Table 1-17 Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch Features (continued) Feature Description

Three replaceable voltage termination (VTT) modules (WS-C6K-VTT=) provide reference voltage for bus signals. Fan tray The chassis supports either one or two hot-swappable fan trays. With only one fan tray installed, the chassis supports operating temperatures up to 104°F (40°C). With two fan trays installed, the chassis supports operating temperatures up to 131°F (55°C). One fan tray model is available: –WS-C6509-V-E-FAN (High-speed fan tray—760 CFM). Supports Supervisor Engine 32, and Supervisor Engine 720. NoteEach fan tray contains four individual fans. The individual fans are not field replaceable; you must replace the fan tray in the event of a fan failure. NoteTwo fan trays are shipped as the chassis default configuration. Fan tray STATUS LED –Red—One or more individual fans have failed. –Green—Fan tray is operating normally. Table 1-19 Catalyst 6509-V-E Switch Features (continued) Feature Description
1-58 Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide OL-5781-08 Chapter 1 Product Overview Catalyst 6509-V-E Switch Power supplySupports one or two power supplies. The following models are supported: –WS-CAC-2500W (2500 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CDC-2500W (2500 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-3000W (3000 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-4000W-US (4000 W AC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-4000W-INT (4000 W AC-input power supply). –PWR-4000-DC (4000 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-6000W (6000 W AC-input power supply). –PWR-6000-DC (6000 W DC-input power supply). –WS-CAC-8700W-E (8700 W AC-input power supply). Installed power supplies can be of different ratings. Installed power supplies can also be both AC-input, both DC-input, or one AC-input and one DC-input. Power supplies can be configured in either redundant or combined mode. All Catalyst 6500 series AC-input power supplies require single-phase source AC. Source AC can be out of phase between multiple power supplies or multiple AC-power plugs on the same power supply because all AC power supply inputs are isolated. Supervisor Engine 2T requires a 3000 W or greater power supply to operate. NoteFor proper operation of the power supply OUTPUT FAIL LED, systems with single power supplies must be configured with a minimum of one fan tray and one supervisor engine. Systems with dual power supplies must have a minimum configuration of one fan tray, one supervisor engine, and one additional module. Failure to meet these minimum configuration requirements can cause a false power supply output fail signal. Table 1-19 Catalyst 6509-V-E Switch Features (continued) Feature Description
