The WS-F6700-CFC is the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Centralized Forwarding Card (CFC), a daughter card for WS-X67xx Ethernet modules. Cisco makes the CFC and the distributed forwarding cards (DFC) installable in the field on select Ethernet switching modules, which upgrades a module to support local switching.
The CFC is supported only by the Supervisor Engine 720. It fits four modules: the WS-X6704-10GE, the WS-X6724-SFP, the WS-X6748-SFP and the WS-X6748-GE-TX. The card carries 256 MB of memory, which is located on the base module, and there are no memory options for this daughter card.
The CFC requires 0.75 A at 42 VDC from the chassis. That is the lowest power need among the forwarding cards in this family, as the distributed forwarding cards for the same WS-X67xx modules require between 1.65 A and 3.30 A at 42 VDC.
For a module that takes this card, see the WS-X6748-GE-TX Catalyst 6500 48-port module, and for a module that ships with a distributed forwarding card, the WS-X6708-10G-3C 8-port 10 Gigabit module. More Catalyst parts are in Cisco switches.
