Cisco VS‑S2T‑10GXL – Catalyst 6500 Supervisor Engine 2T (XL)

Cisco VS-S2T-10GXL is a high-performance Supervisor Engine 2T module designed for Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series and Catalyst 6807-XL chassis. This advanced Supervisor delivers up to 2 Tbps of crossbar switch fabric with 26 fabric channels, providing robust control plane processing and enhanced network services for large enterprise and service provider networks. It features integrated uplink…. Matching on sight is unreliable here. The part number is what determines whether it will work in a given chassis.

Fit is three questions. Which chassis generation the card is built for, which slots in that chassis will take it, and whether the software running today recognises it. Getting two right and the third wrong is the usual way a card arrives and will not go into service. Give us the chassis model and the software version and we will check all three.

How we supply it. Supplied new where available, otherwise as tested stock with warranty, subject to availability. Quote the equipment it is for when you ask and we will verify the fit first. We come back by the next working day.

The Cisco VS‑S2T‑10GXL is a high‑performance Supervisor Engine 2T module designed for Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series and Catalyst 6807‑XL chassis. This advanced supervisor delivers up to 2 Tbps of crossbar switch fabric with 26 fabric channels, providing robust control plane processing and enhanced network services for large enterprise and service provider networks. It features integrated uplink interfaces including 2×10 Gigabit Ethernet (X2) and 3×1 GbE SFP ports, a 1000BASE‑T management port (RJ‑45) and supports Cisco IOS Software for a rich set of Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, routing, and security protocols.

The XL version expands memory and forwarding scale, enabling support for larger routing and ACL tables, extensive QoS entries, and high performance under heavy loads. This supervisor engine is ideal for core and distribution layers of legacy Catalyst 6500 deployments that still power critical network infrastructure. Note: This product has reached End of Sale and End of Support life, with replacement options in the Cisco Catalyst 9600 Series supervisors.
