WS-X6548V-GE-TX adds inline power to the 48-port gigabit CEF256 card: a Cisco prestandard PoE daughter card (WS-F6K-VPWR-GE) is installed at the factory. Prestandard PoE supplies 7 W per port, and fitting a WS-F6K-GE48-AF= card raises that to 15.4 W per port.
Of the three 6548 variants, this one draws the most power: 3.40 A and 142.80 W for the module, with 178.50 W of AC input and 609.58 BTU/hour, and 191.94 W of DC input with 655.46 BTU/hour. All 6548 variants support TDR.
The module has 48 RJ-45 ports in two blocks, 1 to 24 and 25 to 48, with 328 ft (100 m) reach on Category 5, 5e or 6 cable. Frames up to 1518 bytes are accepted, and queues are Tx 1p2q2t and Rx 1p2t. One 8-Gbps fabric connection supplements the 32-Gbps shared bus.
It cannot take a distributed forwarding card and has no pluggable transceivers. Slots in Catalyst 6500 and 6500-E chassis are unrestricted, and Supervisor Engine 2, 32, 32 PISA, 720 and 720-10GE are supported. For 10 Gigabit ports, look at the WS-X6708-10G-3C 8-port 10 Gigabit module; other modules sit in Cisco switches.
