Cisco C9600X-LC-56YL4C Catalyst 9600 Line Card 56-Port

Brand:

Cisco C9600X-LC-56YL4C is a Catalyst 9600 Series modular line card specified with 48x25GE SFP28 and 4x100GE QSFP28 interfaces. It supports high-density aggregation, Layer 3 networking and scalable enterprise deployments.

OVERVIEW

  • Designed for the Cisco Catalyst 9600 modular switching family, the C9600X-LC-56YL4C provides a high-density combination of 25GbE and 100GbE interfaces for enterprise core, aggregation and data-intensive network architectures. Its modular line-card design enables organizations to expand high-speed connectivity within an existing chassis platform while supporting VLANs, Layer 3 networking, jumbo frames and advanced security capabilities.
  • Compatibility: Cisco Catalyst 9600 Series chassis/platform; verify chassis and software compatibility before procurement.
  • Model Comparison: C9600X-LC-56YL4C is a modular line card, not a standalone switch; it provides high-speed interfaces within a compatible Catalyst 9600 chassis.
