The Cisco WS-SUP720-3B-RF is a high-performance Supervisor Engine 720 designed for Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches. It plays a crucial role in network infrastructure by managing processes such as routing, switching, and overall traffic optimisation. The unit features an integrated Policy Feature Card 3B (PFC3B), which enhances Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, making it suitable for complex, large-scale networks.
This supervisor engine offers enhanced network performance through its high-speed forwarding and improved QoS (Quality of Service) management. The integrated PFC3B provides advanced support for traffic prioritisation, allowing network administrators to allocate bandwidth efficiently to critical tasks and services.
The WS-SUP720-3B-RF was designed to be both scalable and resilient, supporting up to 30 million packets per second (Mpps) throughput. This allows for robust forwarding capacity in demanding network environments. It also integrates with Cisco's security features, offering support for Secure Shell (SSH), Network Address Translation (NAT), and Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) technologies. These features ensure the safe and efficient handling of both data and control traffic across the network.
It also supports dual-redundant supervisor engines, ensuring that if one engine encounters issues, the backup processor can take over without downtime. The device is compatible with Cisco IOS software, ensuring flexibility in managing and configuring various network services. This refurbished model (RF) offers a cost-effective alternative to brand-new units, retaining the same high standards for quality and performance.
