The MDS 9706 and MDS 9710 are the two chassis that take this control module. DS-X97-SF1-K9 is the Cisco MDS 9700 Series Supervisor-1 Module for those two directors, and it pairs with the DS-X9706-FAB1 and DS-X9710-FAB1 crossbar fabric modules.
Per chassis, it supports up to 384 Fibre Channel ports at 2/4/8/10/16/32 Gbps (or 1/10-Gbps FCoE ports) in an MDS 9710, and up to 192 in an MDS 9706. The 40-Gbps FCoE counts are 192 ports in the 9710 and 96 in the 9706. System bandwidth reaches 24 Tbps in the 9710 and 12 Tbps in the 9706.
Failed processes restart on their own, and the active and standby supervisors stay synchronized for a stateful failover. Management is through the command-line interface or Cisco Data Center Network Manager. A chassis takes one or two supervisors, and the two must be the same type except while migrating. The module measures 2.04 x 7.5 x 21.8 in (5.18 x 19.05 x 55.37 cm) and weighs 7 lb (3.2 kg). Power draw is 190 W maximum and 110 W typical. Line cards for these chassis are in Cisco interface cards, and more supervisors are in Cisco switches.
