Cisco WS-X6196-RJ-21=: Catalyst 6500 96 port 10/100 RJ-21 classic interface module, upgradable to 802.3af PoE with a daughter card.

The Cisco WS-X6196-RJ-21= is a Catalyst 6500 series interface module providing 96 ports of 10/100 Ethernet on stacked RJ-21 telco connectors. It was built to double port density in the same slot without new cabling, since RJ-21 harnesses were already in place in most wiring closets. Fitted with the 802.3af daughter card it supports Power over Ethernet across those ports.

The Catalyst 6500 was Cisco’s modular campus and data centre switch for well over a decade, and its chassis is filled by a supervisor engine plus line cards chosen for the port types the site needs. Copper and fibre Ethernet modules, service modules and redundant supervisors all share the same backplane, and slot for slot the platform was designed to be upgraded rather than replaced. That longevity is why 6500 line cards are still a live maintenance item.

Based in the UK and shipping worldwide, Tech-Star holds Cisco Catalyst line cards for Catalyst 6500 chassis.
