You may want to check what speed(s) are supported on the 6724/48 SFP blades when using TX SFP's. SOME switches support 10/100/1000 when using TX SFP's, but SOME switches (and I believe all "Gigabit" blades for the 6500 series fall in this category) only support 1000Mbps on TX SFP's...

What we'd prefer to do is just add 6724-GE-TX to slots 1-6 as required. However, these blades don't exist - only 6724-SFP exist. So, as 24 SFP's cost the same as a 6509-E chassis it's a no-brainer financially, but a nightmare technically. We have hundreds of 6513's and were hoping to make them last until the next gen chassis come out (whenever that is) but the need for fabric blades is forcing our hand. We've been making do with the 6516-GE-TX but that's EoS in Jan. Anyone else in the same boat, or also asking Cisco to make a GE-TX version of the 6724? TIA Andrew. -- _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
