Questions & Answers

What is the Cisco Catalyst C6800-48P-TX-XL module?

The C6800-48P-TX-XL is a fixed 48-port 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 line card for the Catalyst 6800/6500-E chassis with an integrated fabric-enabled Distributed Forwarding Card (DFC4XL) for high-performance switching.

How many ports and what speeds does C6800-48P-TX-XL support?

This module provides 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports, delivering wire-speed forwarding for all ports simultaneously.

Is PoE/PoE+ supported on the C6800-48P-TX-XL?

Yes. The “-P” variant supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ with up to 30 W per port, subject to available power-supply capacity in the chassis.

What does fabric-enabled DFC4XL mean?

Fabric-enabled DFC4XL integrates a forwarding ASIC on the line card, off-loading traffic from the supervisor engine to deliver low latency and up to 160 Gbps full-duplex slot bandwidth.

Which chassis and supervisor engines are compatible with C6800-48P-TX-XL?

This module is supported in Cisco Catalyst 6800 and 6500-E chassis equipped with Supervisor Engine 2T, 2T+, or newer supervisor engines that support DFC4XL.

How do I install the C6800-48P-TX-XL in my chassis?

Power off the chassis or use hot-swap procedures, slide the module into an empty line-card slot until it latches, then power on. The module is hot-insertion and hot-removal capable.

What is the switching capacity and forwarding rate of the module?

The C6800-48P-TX-XL delivers up to 160 Gbps full-duplex slot switching capacity and maximum line-rate forwarding at 48 Gbps aggregate ingress and egress.

Does the module support fiber or SFP uplinks?

No. This fixed-port module provides only RJ-45 copper ports; fibre or SFP uplinks require a separate uplink or supervisor module with SFP/SFP+ cages.

What are the power consumption specifications?

The line card draws approximately 150 W (non-PoE). With full PoE+ load, power consumption can reach up to 1,600 W, depending on port usage and chassis power supplies.

What software and licenses are required to operate C6800-48P-TX-XL?

It runs Cisco IOS XE 16.x or later. An IP Base license enables Layer 2/3 core features; the Network Advantage or DNA Advantage license unlocks advanced routing, fabric, and security services.

What are the environmental and operational ranges for the module?

Operating temperature is 0 to 45 °C (32 to 113 °F) with 10–90 % non-condensing humidity. Storage temperature range is –40 to 70 °C (–40 to 158 °F).

How do I monitor port status and performance on C6800-48P-TX-XL?

Use Cisco IOS CLI commands (e.g., “show interface status”, “show platform hardware throughput level”) or integrate with SNMP/Cisco Prime for real-time monitoring and alerting.

What warranty and support options are available?

The module is covered by Cisco’s Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty with next-business-day replacement and 90 days of technical support. Extended coverage is available via Cisco SMARTnet.

Can I perform hot-swap on the C6800-48P-TX-XL module?

Yes. The module supports hot insertion and removal without disrupting traffic on other line cards, provided you follow Cisco’s hot-swap guidelines.

What are the typical use cases for the C6800-48P-TX-XL?

Ideal for high-density Gigabit access in campus distribution, enterprise wiring closets, and data-center top-of-rack deployments requiring PoE+ and advanced QoS/security.

Where can I order genuine replacement modules and spares?

Purchase Cisco genuine modules and spares through authorized Cisco channel partners or the Cisco Commerce website to ensure full warranty and technical support coverage.
