C6800-8P10G= Overview
The Cisco Catalyst 6800 Family Switches offer a variety of 10-Gigabit Ethernet modules. Working in conjunction with the Catalyst 6500-E/6807-XL Supervisor Engine 2T/2TXL (VS-S2T-10G & VS-S2T-10GXL), they can serve different needs on campus deployments. The family includes three modules: the Catalyst 6800 32-port, 16-port, and 8-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Modules. C6800-8P10G= is the Catalyst 6800 8-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Module Spare, it provides two 40G, eight 10G, eight 1G full-duplex transceiver ports.
