The Cisco Supervisor Engine II (Part Number: WSX6K-S2-PFC2=) is a crucial component in Cisco's Catalyst 6000 family of switches. It acts as the main control processor, managing several key functions within the switch infrastructure. This module is designed to offer efficient management of switching and routing processes for enterprise-level networks.
One of the standout features of this part is its ability to provide high performance and robust control across multiple ports and network layers. The Supervisor Engine II integrates the Policy Feature Card 2 (PFC2), enhancing QoS (Quality of Service) capabilities, forwarding performance, and multicast routing efficiency. This ensures controlled and streamlined packet forwarding within large and demanding network environments.
The WSX6K-S2-PFC2= also includes support for Layer 2/3 switching and routing, making it suitable for various network topologies that require both traffic switching and routing capabilities. Additionally, its hot-swappable nature allows for easy module replacement or upgrading without needing to shut down the entire switch, thus minimising downtime in critical operations.
This Supervisor Engine comes with failover and redundancy features that ensure continuous network operations even when there is a hardware failure. It's compatible with the modular architecture of the Cisco Catalyst 6000 series, providing flexible deployment options, including supporting multiple chassis configurations suited to different enterprise infrastructures.
