Chassis/slot restrictions
The WS-X6724-SFP module is not supported in the Catalyst 6503 
chassis.
The WS-X6724-SFP when equipped with either a CFC, or DFC4 
daughter card is supported by the Supervisor Engine 2T.
The WS-X6824-SFP-2T/-2TXL is support only in Catalyst 6500 
E-series chassis equipped with Supervisor Engine 2T.
Requires that modules be installed in adjacent slots or, if either 
adjacent slot is unused, you must install a switching-module filler 
plate (Cisco part numbers WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR-E or 
SLOTBLANK-09) rather than a blank slot cover 
(WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR) to maintain an adequate air flow through 
the chassis.
Fabric connection Single fabric channel.
