Chapter 1 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Chassis Overview
Catalyst 6509
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 Supervisor Engine
32 or
Supervisor Engine
32 PISA cannot be installed in the same chassis.
The uplink ports are fully functional on the redundant supervisor engine 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 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.

Catalyst 6509
The Catalyst 6509 switch is a 9-slot (numbered from (1) top to (9) bottom), 15 RU, horizontal chassis
that supports redundant power supplies and redundant supervisor engines. The chassis is NEBS L3
compliant. Supervisor engine support and restrictions for the Catalyst
6509 includes:
Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720,
and Supervisor Engine
720-10GE 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
6509 chassis.
Supervisor Engine 2 must be installed in slot 1 or slot 2.
Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, and Supervisor
Engine
720-10GE must be installed in slot 5 or slot 6.
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 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, and Supervisor
Engine
720-10GE require that the high-speed fan tray (WS-C6K-9SLOT-FAN2) be installed in the
chassis. You must also install a 2500
W or higher capacity power supply in the chassis to power the
high-speed fan tray.
Note The 2500 W power supply, when supporting the high-speed fan tray, can be powered from either
120
VAC or 220 VA C .
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. The Switch Fabric Modules and Supervisor
Engine
720 or Supervisor Engine 720-10GE cannot be installed in the same chassis.
