Chapter 2 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch SIPs and SSCs Overview
Cisco 7600 SIP-200 Overview
Specifying the SIP or SSC Subslot Location for a SPA
SIP subslots begin their numbering with 0 and have a horizontal or vertical orientation depending on the
orientation of the SIP in the router chassis slot, as shown in the “SIP, SSC, and SPA Product Overview”
chapter of the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch SIP, SSC, and SPA Software Configuration Guide.
Figure 2-1 shows an example of a Cisco 7600 SIP-200 installed with a vertical orientation on a
Cisco 7609 router. The Cisco 7600 SIP-200 supports four subslots for the installation of SPAs. In this
example, the subslot locations are oriented vertically as follows:
• SIP subslot 0—Top–right subslot
• SIP subslot 1—Bottom–right subslot
• SIP subslot 2—Top–left subslot
• SIP subslot 3—Bottom–left subslot
Figure 2-2 shows the faceplate for the Cisco 7600 SIP-200 in a horizontal orientation.
Figure 2-2 Cisco 7600 SIP-200 Faceplate
In this view, the subslot locations in a horizontal orientation are as follows:
• SIP subslot 0—Top–left subslot
• SIP subslot 1—Top–right subslot
• SIP subslot 2—Bottom–left subslot
• SIP subslot 3—Bottom–right subslot
The SIP subslot numbering is indicated by a small numeric label beside the subslot on the faceplate.
Some commands, such as the show idprom module and show hw-module subslot commands, allow
you to display information about the SPA itself. These commands require you to specify both the
physical location of the SIP and SPA in the format slot/subslot.
• slot—Specifies the chassis slot number in the Catalyst 6500 Series switch where the SIP is installed.
• subslot—Specifies the secondary slot of the SIP where the SPA is installed.
For example, to display the operational status for the SPA installed in the first subslot of the SIP in
chassis slot 6 shown in
Figure 2-1, enter the following command:
Router# show hw-module subslot 6/0 oir
