The Cisco WS-X6704-10GE is a high-performance, plug-in module designed for Cisco Catalyst switches. Specifically, it offers advanced switching capabilities to support high-density 10-Gigabit Ethernet deployment for enterprise networks. This module is ideal for enterprises requiring secure, scalable, and high-bandwidth network connections for demanding applications such as data centres and campus backbones. The module adds four ports of 10-Gigabit Ethernet, which helps maximise connectivity and network speed in environments where efficiency and quick data transfer rates are essential.
The WS-X6704-10GE uses XENPAK pluggable optics for its 10GE port interfaces. This enables flexibility when choosing different types of 10GE optical transceivers, depending on the network requirements, such as distance and cabling. With its ability to support various XENPAK transceivers, including those for long-range, short-range, and multi-mode fibre, it offers versatility across different networking environments.
It is designed to work with Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches, making it an easy upgrade for infrastructures already utilising these switches. The WS-X6704-10GE can also assist in the aggregation of multiple switches over 10G Ethernet links, streamlining network architecture. The seamless integration of this module with Cisco IOS Software further enhances its operational capabilities, offering advanced features such as access control lists (ACLs), quality of service (QoS) and Layer 3 routing. The module requires a Supervisor Engine for its functionality, ensuring robust traffic management and reduced latency for high-volume data transmission.
