The Cisco WS-X6248-RJ-45 is a Catalyst 6000-series 48-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet line card fitted with RJ-45 copper connectors. It slots into the Catalyst 6000 and 6500 chassis family alongside a supervisor engine, adding 48 auto-negotiating 10/100Mbit ports of wired access capacity to the switch.
As a classic, non fabric-enabled card it switches through the shared backplane bus rather than a dedicated crossbar fabric, which was the standard architecture on early Catalyst 6000 deployments before fabric-enabled line cards became common. Catalyst 6000/6500 chassis of this generation are still widely deployed in campus and data-centre wiring closets, and a confirmed-working spare card such as this is a straightforward way to replace a failed line card or add port density without a full platform refresh. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) inspects and tests each unit before dispatch; confirm compatibility with your specific chassis and CatOS/IOS release before ordering.
