3.3.3. 10/100 Line Cards (WS-X6196-RJ21, WS-X6196-21AF)
This group includes the following linecards:
●
WS-X6196-21AF

WS-X6196-RJ21
The WS-X6148X2-RJ45 linecard is unique in the Catalyst 6500 family line-up due to it having 48 physical ports on
the linecard, but with the addition of a separate patch panel can be set-up to provide 96 ports of 10/100. The WS-
X6196-RJ21 provides the full 96 ports via a set of front panel RJ-21 interfaces.
