THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

•Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

•Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

•Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

•Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Chassis Overview

Revised: July 2011

This chapter provides a brief overview of the Catalyst 6500 series switches. For details on the individual Catalyst 6500 series chassis, see the information listed on this page:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps708/tsd_products_support_series_home.html

Note Throughout this publication, except where noted, the term supervisor engine is used to refer to Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, Supervisor Engine 720-10GE, and the Supervisor Engine 2T.

Catalyst 6503 Switch

The Catalyst 6503 switch is a 3-slot (numbered from (1) top to (3) bottom), 4 RU, horizontal chassis that supports redundant power supplies and redundant supervisor engines. The chassis is NEBS L3 compliant. Supervisor engine support includes:

•Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, and Supervisor Engine 720 are supported.

Note Refer to your software release notes for specific information on the minimum software release versions required to support the supervisor engines in the Catalyst 6503 chassis.

• Supervisor engines must be installed in chassis slot 1 or slot 2.

Note Slots 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 has a built-in switching fabric. Switch Fabric Modules (WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2) are not supported by Supervisor Engine 720. The Switch Fabric Modules and Supervisor Engine 720 cannot be installed 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). The Switch Fabric Modules and the Supervisor Engine 32 or the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA cannot be installed in the same chassis.

Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engine Guide

	OL-7397-03	1-1

Chapter 1 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Chassis Overview

Catalyst 6503-E

•Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, and the Supervisor Engine 720 require additional cooling. You must install the optional high-speed fan tray (FAN-MOD-3HS) in the chassis when any of these three supervisor engines are installed.

•The uplink ports are fully functional on the redundant supervisor engine when it is in standby mode.

Note In 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.

Additional information on the Catalyst 6503 switch chassis including data sheets and chassis installation is located at:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps708/tsd_products_support_series_home.html

Catalyst 6513-E

•The uplink ports are fully functional on all redundant supervisor engine models when they are in standby mode.

In 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 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.

Table 2-2 lists and describes Supervisor Engine 2 features

Table 2-2	Supervisor Engine 2 Features

Feature		Description

Chassis compatibility		Supported on all Catalyst 6500 series chassis except the Catalyst 6509-V-E
		chassis.

Software requirements		12.2(17d)SXB
(minimum)

Fan tray requirements		All three versions of Supervisor Engine 2 are designed to operate with the
		low-speed fan trays; they do not require that a high-speed fan tray (either a
		fan tray 2 or Catalyst 6500-E series fan tray) be installed in the chassis.
		Low-speed fan trays provide sufficient cooling for Supervisor Engine 2.

Slot installation restrictions		Slots 1 and 2 in any Catalyst 6500 series chassis

Backplane		32-Gbps shared bus. 256 Gbps when a Switch Fabric Module
		(WS-C6500-SFM or WS-X6500-SFM2) is installed in the chassis.

Hardware restrictions		There are no additional hardware restrictions for Supervisor Engine 2.
