Chapter 1 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Chassis Overview
Catalyst 6513-E
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 all redundant supervisor engine models when they are 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 6513-E
The Catalyst 6513-E switch is a 13-slot (numbered from (1) top to (13) bottom), 20 RU, horizontal
chassis enhanced version of the Catalyst
6513 switch that supports redundant power supplies and
redundant supervisor engines. It also supports a greater power capacity per slot than the Catalyst
6513
switch chassis and supports the WS-X67xx and WS-X68xx switching modules. The chassis is NEBS L3
compliant. Supervisor engine support and restrictions for the Catalyst
6513-E includes:
Supports Supervisor Engine 2, Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor
Engine
720, Supervisor Engine 720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T.
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
6513-E chassis.
Supervisor Engine 2 must be installed in slot 1 or slot 2.
Supervisor Engine 32, Supervisor Engine 32 PISA, Supervisor Engine 720, Supervisor
Engine
720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T must be installed in slot 7 or slot 8.
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, Supervisor
Engine
720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T require additional cooling. You must install the
high-speed fan tray (WS-C6K-13SLT-FAN2) when using any of these supervisor engines. You must
also install a 2500
W or higher capacity power supply in the chassis to power the high-speed fan tray.
Supervisor Engine 720, Supervisor Engine 720-10GE, and Supervisor Engine 2T have a built-in
switching fabric. Switch Fabric Modules (WS-C6500-SFM and WS-X6500-SFM2) are not
supported.
