The Cisco WS-X6148-RJ21V= is a high-performance, plug-in module designed for Cisco Catalyst 6000 Series Switches. This module supports up to 48 Ethernet 10/100 Mbps ports, providing efficient network management for medium to large enterprises requiring reliable connectivity. Its architecture is suited for environments that demand high availability and scalability.
An important feature of this module is the support for inline power, which allows it to provide power directly to connected devices, such as IP phones, through the network cables. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies, thereby reducing system complexity and installation costs. Inline power is compliant with Cisco’s pre-standard inline power technology (prior to the adoption of 802.3af PoE standards), making this module capable of retrofitting into existing setups that require older Cisco inline power support.
The WS-X6148-RJ21V= offers a RJ21 connector for each 24 ports. This particular connector type consolidates multiple Ethernet connections into a single cable link, making it ideal for high-density port switches and simplifying cabling in complex network environments. It supports Cisco IOS Software, which provides a comprehensive set of network management and security tools at every layer of your network. The module is also fully managed, allowing for enhanced security, quality of service (QoS), and troubleshooting features.
When installed in a Cisco Catalyst 6000 Series chassis, the WS-X6148-RJ21V= provides seamless integration with existing network infrastructure, leveraging advanced switch features such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Port Aggregation, and efficient multicast routing. Hot swapping is supported, meaning the module can be replaced without shutting down the system, ensuring your network remains operational during maintenance or upgrades.
