The Cisco WS-X6708-10G-3C is an 8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card for the Catalyst 6500 chassis, fitted with a DFC3C (Distributed Forwarding Card) daughterboard for local, line-rate forwarding decisions rather than relying solely on the supervisor engine. It requires an X2 transceiver in each of its eight ports and is used where a 6500 chassis needs dense 10GbE aggregation with distributed forwarding performance, typically in core or data-centre-edge roles. The DFC3C variant is the higher-throughput sibling of the non-DFC WS-X6708-10GE card, so confirm which forwarding architecture your chassis and supervisor combination requires before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies Cisco Catalyst 6500 line cards to keep core switching capacity in service.
