Cisco Catalyst 6506-E Switch

Introduction: Cisco Catalyst 6506-E Switch

The 6-slot Cisco Catalyst 6506-E Switch provides intermediate port densities, ideal for many wiring closet and core network deployments. Catalyst 6506-E supports Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series end-to-end operational consistency benefits.

Important Features

Supports all Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series modules, including:

• Supervisor engines
• Fast Ethernet modules (with IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet [PoE])
• Gigabit Ethernet modules (with IEEE 802.3af PoE)
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet modules
• Flex WAN modules
• Shared Port Adaptors/SPA Interface Processors
• Multi-Gigabit services modules (content services ,firewall, intrusion detection, IP Security [IPSec], VPN, network analysis, and Secure Sockets Layer [SSL] acceleration)

The Cisco Catalyst 6506-E supports both Cisco Catalyst OS and Cisco IOS Software. Cisco Catalyst 6506-E supports up to a 6000W power supply, thus providing the ability to support a large number of IEEE 802.3af PoE devices.

The Cisco Catalyst 6506-E provides maximum uptime with redundancy and rapid (1 to 3 seconds) stateful failover across supervisor engines. It supports modular Cisco IOS Software to minimize unplanned downtime through self-healing processes and simplifies software changes through subsystem in-service software upgrades.

The Cisco Catalyst 6506-E Firewall Security System is a 6-slot model providing an easily deployed solution that integrates a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engine 720 (with integrated policy and multilayer switch feature cards [PFC3/MSFC3] for system control, routing services, and dual Gigabit Ethernet ports); a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module providing 5 Gbps of firewall services; and 4 additional open slots for further customization.

Cisco Catalyst IPSec VPN systems take advantage of the Cisco 7600/Catalyst 6500 IPSec VPN Services Module and provide up to 2 Gbps of Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) encryption. The systems provide a broad suite of services and a multitude of I/O interfaces.
