The Catalyst 6800 16-port 10GE with integrated DFC4 (part number: C6800-16P10G=) is designed for high-performance networking environments in enterprise and campus data centres. This line card offers up to 16 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, ideal for large-scale networks that require a high volume of data transfer at low latency. The card integrates a Distributed Forwarding Card 4 (DFC4), which enhances its forwarding capabilities, allowing for local switching decisions and reducing traffic bottlenecks within your network.
With its support for 16 ports of 10GE, the C6800-16P10G= line card provides the scalability modern networks need, making it a critical component for handling complex routing protocols and large traffic volumes. It is specifically compatible with Catalyst 6800 series switches, ensuring seamless interaction with the chassis. This advanced line card is built to support dense virtualisation and high-bandwidth applications that commonly appear in today’s data-driven environments.
The integrated DFC4 module delivers improved forwarding performance by enabling local data processing, which aids in reducing latency and improving the overall efficiency of the switching framework. Additionally, this model is capable of bidirectional forwarding, further optimising traffic balance. The line card helps businesses scale their networks efficiently while maintaining optimal performance, offering administrators the tools necessary for enhancing network reliability and resilience.
Other features include compatibility with essential design specifications like IPv6, Layer 2 to Layer 4 packet filtering, and hardware-based Quality of Service (QoS), making it suitable for robust enterprise deployments.
