Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch

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 6509-NEB-A supports both Cisco Catalyst OS and Cisco IOS Software. It also supports up to a 6000W power supply, thus providing the ability to support large numbers of IEEE 802.3af PoE devices.

The Cisco Catalyst 6509-NEB-A 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.
