In a multi-building corporate campus running latency-sensitive VoIP, video conferencing and mission-critical data services, IT deploys WS-X6548-GE-TX modules in a Catalyst 6500 chassis as the central aggregation tier. The 48-port 10/100/1000 fabric-enabled uplink fabric delivers non-blocking wire-speed Gigabit Ethernet to building distribution switches, simplifies cabling and supports hitless failover with VSS. Outcome: up to 94 Gbps per module of resilient, low-latency bandwidth with consolidated management, boosting application availability and campus network scalability.
A virtualized data center running hundreds of blade servers uses dual WS-X6548-GE-TX line cards in redundant Catalyst 6500 chassis for top-of-rack aggregation. Each 48-port Gigabit Ethernet module provides high-density 1 Gbps server connectivity, unified QoS and VXLAN-aware forwarding. Benefit: simplified wiring closets, consistent security policies, and up to 188 Gbps of aggregated throughput per chassis, accelerating VM migrations and reducing operational overhead.
A global financial services firm implements dual WS-X6548-GE-TX modules in Catalyst 6500 switches at key branch offices, leveraging VSS (Virtual Switching System) for active/active redundancy. The fabric-enabled 48-port Gigabit Ethernet uplinks seamlessly split traffic across dual supervisors and enable sub-50 ms convergence on link or module failure. Result: continuous, predictable network performance for trading applications and secure VPN backhaul with guaranteed SLAs and streamlined maintenance.

The WS-X6548-GE-TX is a 48-port RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps line card for Cisco Catalyst 6500 series switches, delivering fabric-enabled gigabit connectivity with wire-speed performance.
It offers 48 copper RJ-45 ports, each supporting 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps auto-negotiation with full-duplex operation.
The module is supported in Catalyst 6503-E, 6504-E, 6506-E, 6509-E, and 6513-E chassis running Supervisor Engine 720, 2T, or 32GT (and later) platforms.
Yes. The module supports in-service insertion and removal (hot-swap) without powering down the entire chassis.
It typically consumes 65 W (85 W maximum). Ensure adequate chassis fans and power supplies per Cisco Catalyst 6500 specifications.
Yes. When paired with a compatible Supervisor Engine and Cisco IOS, it supports VLANs, Spanning Tree, QoS, ACLs, and hardware-accelerated IP routing.
Use Cat5e or higher unshielded or shielded twisted-pair (UTP/STP) cables for reliable gigabit performance up to 100 meters.
Power off the chassis or use hot-swap, slide the module into an empty line-card slot, tighten the captive screws, then power on or verify in-service status.
In Cisco IOS, enter global config mode and use 'interface range GigabitEthernet slot/1-48' to set speed, duplex, VLAN, and other port parameters.
No. The WS-X6548-GE-TX is a data-only module and does not provide PoE functionality.
Cisco IOS 12.2(18)SX or later is required; Cisco recommends running IOS 15.x for full feature support and security updates.
