Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series
Cisco IOS Software
Modularity
Catalyst 6500 Series with Cisco IOS
Software Modularity boosts operational
efficiency and minimizes downtime through
evolutionary software infrastructure
advancements. By enabling modular Cisco
IOS subsystems to run as independent,
self-healing processes, this innovation
minimizes unplanned downtime through
fault containment and stateful process
restarts, simplifies software changes
through subsystem In-Service Software
Upgrades (ISSU), and enables process-level,
automated policy control by integrating
the Embedded Event Manager (EEM).
Maximum PoE Scalability
Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series provides the
industry leading levels of power scalability
needed to support high-density PoE
deployments. The enhanced 6- and 9-slot
chassis (C6506-E and C6509-E models) are
designed to scale beyond the current 6000W
power supplies. Continuing this product
line’s tradition of unmatched investment
protection, all existing supervisors, line
cards, switch fabrics, and software releases
are supported in the E-series chassis.
