The DS-X9530-SF2AK9 is the Cisco MDS 9500 Series Supervisor-2A Module. It provides the same capabilities as the Supervisor-2 Module and adds support for deploying Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) in an MDS 9500 Multilayer Director chassis. Two Supervisor-2A modules are required per system.
Each module supplies 700 Gbps of switching bandwidth, and 1.4 Tbps of nonblocking performance is available to MDS 9500 Series directors when both are present. Installed in an MDS 9513 chassis with the two crossbar modules, the system bandwidth is 2.2 Tbps and fully redundant. It supports 1-, 2-, 4-, 8- and 10-Gbps Fibre Channel port densities.
Interfaces are one RS-232 RJ-45 console port, one 10/100/1000 Ethernet management port, one DB-9 COM port and one Compact Flash interface. LEDs cover status, system, power management and active/standby. It occupies one supervisor slot, needs Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.x or later and stays compatible with the MDS 9506 and MDS 9509 chassis. The spare number is DS-X9530-SF2AK9=.
Line cards for the same directors include the DS-X9248-48K9 module, and other MDS 9000 modules for these chassis are in Cisco switches.
