The WS-F6700-DFC3CXL is the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Distributed Forwarding Card 3CXL (DFC3CXL), a daughter card for CEF720 Ethernet modules. It is supported only by the Supervisor Engine 720 and carries 1 GB of memory.
The DFC3CXL ships as standard on the WS-X6708-10G-3CXL and the WS-X6716-10G-3CXL modules. For other CEF720 line cards it is an option beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH. Modules supported are the WS-X6704-10GE, WS-X6708-10G-3CXL, WS-X6716-10G-3CXL, WS-X6716-10T-3CXL, WS-X6724-SFP, WS-X6748-SFP and WS-X6748-GE-TX, each at 1 GB, and the card requires 2.35 A at 42 VDC.
The forwarding functionality depends on the supervisor engine in the chassis. With a WS-SUP720 the card operates at PFC3A level, with a WS-SUP720-3B at PFC3B, with a WS-SUP720-3BXL at PFC3BXL, with a VS-S720-10G-3C at PFC3C and with a VS-S720-10G-3CXL at PFC3CXL. The Supervisor Engine 2T does not support DFC3 daughter cards installed on modules.
For a module that ships with this card, see the WS-X6708-10G-3C 8-port 10 Gigabit module or the WS-X6748-GE-TX Catalyst 6500 48-port module. More Catalyst parts are in Cisco switches.
