Catalyst 6500 1st Generation System (32G Share Bus) Competitive Comparison & Analysis No Switching Fabric, No dedicated bandwidth for line card All packets are processed by supervisor. VLAN/Route information is stored here. MSFC PFC Supervisor Engine Classic Line Cards Even traffics on the same card, the classis line card still sends packets to Supervisor Engine Interface Line Card 32Gbps Shared Bus Interface Line Card Bottlenecks. i.e. 48-port GE line, but only total 32G shared bus for data transmission. Before sending packets, line card needs confirmation from Supervisor Engine.
Competitive Comparison & Analysis Catalyst 6500 2nd Generation System (256G SFM) Under redundancy mode, it needs to consume 4 slots.

CISCO-6500: Switching Capacity Calculation - engine Competitive Comparison & Analysis • It is stated that Sup720 has 720G switching bandwidth which is calculated as the following algorithm: • 18×20G×2=720Gbps switching channels full duplex switching bandwidth per channel Bidirectional • Due to hardware architecture, one 20G channel is for internal use. Only 17 channels can be used by users. • Currently, only three interface modules (WS-67xx) can fully make use of dual 20G fabric channel to 720G SFM. • Abundant Interface modules (WS-65xx and WS68xx) are only one or two 8G channels to 720G SFM, such that utilization of bandwidth is very low. Catalyst6500 series
CISCO-6500: Switching capacity calculation - chassis Competitive Comparison & Analysis • C6513switching capacity: 40G1 * 2 * 5 + 20G2 * 2 * 7 + = 680Gbps2 • C6509switching capacity: 40G1 * 2 * 8 = 640Gbps • C6506 switching capacity: 40G1 * 2 * 5 = 400Gbps • C6504switching capacity: 40G1 * 2 * 3 = 240Gbps • C6503 switching capacity: 40G1 * 2 * 2 = 160Gbps Sup720 provides uni-directional 40G (dual 20Gbps) per slot • Competitive info: • With dual engines, chassis switching capacity needs to minus 80Gbps (the engine occupies one more slot) • 2. Switching capacity of engine (720G) Switching capacity of the chassis (listed above) • *Switching capacity of chassis means summation of all slots bandwidth Note1: Bandwidth of WS-X67xx (dual channels) Note2: 2-8 slots only have single channel on C6513
Analysis: CISCO-6500 throughput - chassis Competitive Comparison & Analysis Why does not C6500 propagate throughput to the whole chassis • With SUP32, the whole chassis only reaches 15Mpps (equals to 20Gbps bi-directional, 10Gbps uni-directional): • Support up to 1G x 10 with line rate • Support up to only 10G x 1 with line rate • SUP32 is only suitable for Wiring Closet, or FE to desktop • Claimed SUP720 switching capacity (WS-SUP720 & WS-SUP720-3B): 400Mpps • Real SUP720 switching capacity (if with C6509): : • C6509 with one SUP720 and maximum 8 slots for service, also consider GE x 2 on engine: • 48Mpps * 8 + 1.4881Mpps * 2 = 387Mpps • If dual engines are configured, the chassis throughput is: 342Mpps • And above calculation is based on line cards with DFC3! The real throughput is not as claimed 400Mpps
Analysis: CISCO-6500 throughput – line card Competitive Comparison & Analysis • X65xx line card, with DFC3 daughter card, throughput is 15Mpps (equals to 10Gbps uni-directional) • Support up to 10 GE ports at line rate • None of X65xx GE line cards is line rate • X67xx line card, with DFC3 daughter card, throughput is 48Mpps (equals to 35.8Gbps unidirectional) • Support up to 32 GE ports at line rate; 48*GE or 4*10GE line card are not line rate, • 24*GE line card (X6724) only have 17*GE line rate • None of X67xx line cards is line rate • X68xx line card, with DFC3 daughter card, throughput is 24Mpps(equals to 17.9Gbps unidirectional) • Support up to 16 GE ports at line rate • Only X6816 of X68xx can be line rate, the only line rate card of CISCO GE line cards Why does not C6500 propagate line rate ability
