The Cisco WS-F6K-DFC4-EXL Catalyst 6500-E Distributed Forwarding Card enhances forwarding performance for high-bandwidth applications. It supports distributed processing, reducing the load on the supervisor engine and improving efficiency in large-scale deployments.
Compatible with Cisco WS-X6816-10G-2T and WS-X6816-10T-2T modules, it enables scalability for enterprise networks requiring extensive throughput capacity. This module increases data plane performance by offloading packet-switching tasks from central processors to improve traffic management across multiple interfaces.
Designed for use within a compatible chassis, it delivers higher forwarding rates that support demanding workloads without affecting stability or reliability.
