The Cisco expansion module WS-X6408-GBIC= is an 8-port module specifically designed for use in compatible Cisco Catalyst switches. This module supports up to 8 GBIC-based ports, providing high-speed connectivity for various network applications. It has a modular form factor, allowing it to easily integrate into existing Cisco switch hardware without complex setup processes. The GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) ports on the module enable flexible configuration, supporting various transceivers for different cabling types, such as copper or fibre-optic cables. This flexibility ensures that the module can accommodate a variety of network connectivity needs, from local-area networks (LANs) to more complex environments requiring high-speed links.
The WS-X6408-GBIC= module is part of the Cisco Catalyst 6000 Series, which is known for its robustness, scalability, and performance in enterprise settings. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to support Gigabit Ethernet over optical fibre or similar technologies, allowing for reliable and fast data transmission. Each of the 8 GBIC-based ports supports hot swapping, so network administrators can replace or upgrade ports while the system remains operational, thus reducing network downtime.
This expansion module is highly versatile in various network topologies and is compatible with common Cisco network management tools, making integration and monitoring relatively straightforward. With its support for long-range and high-performance networking, this module is ideal for expanding existing network infrastructure, whether it be in corporate, campus, or data centre settings.
