The 13-slot Cisco Catalyst 6513 Switch chassis is ideally suited for high-performance,
high port density Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet aggregation in all parts
of the network, including the access, distribution, and backbone layers as well
as the server farm and data center environments. With up to 12 payload slots
available, the 13-slot chassis offers industry-leading 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet
and 10 Gigabit Ethernet port densities while providing high levels of network
resilience.
Important Features
Supports all Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series modules, including:
Cisco 6513 Specifications
- Supervisor engines
- Fast Ethernet modules (with IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet [PoE])
- Gigabit Ethernet modules (with IEEE 802.3af PoE)
- 10 Gigabit Ethernet modules
- Flex WAN modules
- Shared Port Adaptors/SPA Interface Processors
- Multi-Gigabit services modules (content services ,firewall, intrusion
detection,
IP Security [IPSec], VPN, network analysis, and Secure Sockets
Layer [SSL] acceleration)
Cisco Catalyst 6513 switches support both Cisco Catalyst OS and Cisco IOS Software.
They also support up to a 6000W power supply, thus providing the ability to
support a large number of IEEE 802.3af PoE devices.
Cisco Catalyst 6513 switches provide maximum uptime with redundancy and rapid
(1 to 3 seconds) stateful failover across supervisor engines. They support modular
Cisco IOS Software to minimize unplanned downtime through self-healing processes
and simplify software changes through subsystem in-service software upgrades.
The Cisco Catalyst 6513 Firewall Security System is a 13-slot model providing
an easily deployed solution that integrates a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor
Engine 720 (with integrated policy and multilayer switch feature cards [PFC3/MSFC3]
for system control, routing services, and dual Gigabit Ethernet ports); a Cisco
Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module providing 5 Gbps of firewall services;
and 11 additional open slots for further customization.
