Specifications

   Overview:
  • The Cisco WS-X5165 Fabric Integration Module is a high-performance, backbone-grade interconnect solution specifically engineered for the Cisco Catalyst 5500 Series. Designed to extend and integrate high-speed switch fabric architecture, the WS-X5165 ensures seamless communication across switching modules and supervisors within the chassis.
  • This module plays a critical role in enabling Scalable Switching Fabric (SSF) functionality, delivering greater throughput, lower latency, and more efficient data handling for enterprise-grade networks. It is especially valuable in large-scale deployments where modular expansion, centralized traffic management, and fault tolerance are essential.
  • With plug-and-play installation and hot-swappable capability, the WS-X5165 minimizes downtime and supports mission-critical network infrastructures. It's an ideal solution for organizations that demand reliability, scalability, and superior switch backplane performance.
   Features:
  • Fabric Integration for Catalyst 5500 – Enables switch fabric architecture across multiple modules
  • High-Speed Chassis Interconnect – Boosts data throughput and optimizes internal communication
  • Plug-and-Play Installation – Quick and easy deployment with minimal configuration
  • Hot-Swappable Design – No network interruption during installation or replacement
  •  Enterprise-Class Performance – Designed for data centers, large campuses, and service providers
  • Backplane Integration – Connects supervisor engines and switching modules into one high-speed fabric
  • Supports Scalable Switching Fabric (SSF) – For low-latency and high-bandwidth internal traffic
