The WS-X4248-RJ21V provides exceptional value. It offers reliable, high-speed connectivity and is ideal for handling heavy data traffic.
The WS-X4248-RJ21V is a 48-port 1000Base-X Gigabit Ethernet line card for Cisco Catalyst 4500 chassis, supporting optional SFP transceivers for fiber connectivity.
This line card delivers 48 independent Gigabit Ethernet ports over Base-X SFP interfaces.
It supports Cisco SFP modules such as GLC-SX-MMD, GLC-LX-MMD, GLC-ZX-SM, and other Cisco-approved 1000Base-X transceivers.
Compatibility requires Supervisor Engine 6-E, 7-E, or later with required Cisco IOS software and appropriate feature licenses.
It delivers up to 48 Gbps of line-rate throughput, forwarding packets at full wire speed on all ports simultaneously.
Yes, when paired with a Layer 3-capable supervisor engine and proper IOS feature license, it supports OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and static routing.
Yes, the module is hot-swappable, allowing installation or removal without powering down the Catalyst 4500 chassis.
Typical power draw is 65 W, with a maximum of 80 W under full load, as documented in Cisco’s line card specifications.
It supports QoS, ACLs, VLANs, Jumbo Frames, IGMP snooping, and advanced security features under the supervisor’s IOS image.
Yes, it supports Stateful Switchover (SSO) and Nonstop Forwarding (NSF) when paired with a redundant supervisor engine.
Power on the chassis, slide the module into an available line-card slot until it latches, then enable ports via the supervisor’s CLI or web interface.
Perform periodic firmware updates on the supervisor engine, clean module air fans, and ensure proper temperature and dust-free environment.
Yes, you can combine it with other Catalyst 4500 line cards, subject to slot numbering, supervisor capacity, and power-budget constraints.
Ideal for enterprise aggregation, data center access, and campus distribution requiring high-density fiber connectivity at Gigabit speeds.
Cisco has designated it as EOS (End of Sale) with limited support; the recommended migration path is to the Catalyst 4500E series with newer line cards.
Software upgrades occur on the supervisor engine via TFTP/FTP or USB; the line card inherits the supervisor’s IOS image automatically.
