Switch Fabric Module 2 (WS-X6500-SFM2)
The front panel on the Switch Fabric Module has a 2-line by 20-character LCD display. The display
allows you to monitor the module’s input/outport port traffic and local bus traffic. The display also shows
system information.
Two push button switches control the LCD display:
• SELECT—This switch is used for LCD display menu selection.
• NEXT—This switch is used to scroll to the next item on the LCD display menu.
Switch Fabric Module 2 (WS-X6500-SFM2)
The Switch Fabric Module 2 (WS-X6500-SFM2) can be installed in any Cisco 7600 series router. (See
Figure 11-2.) The Switch Fabric Module 2 requires Supervisor Engine 2 and must be installed in slot 5
or slot 6 of the Cisco 7606, Cisco 7609, or OSR-7609 routers, or in slot 7 or slot 8 of the Cisco 7613
router.
Note The Switch Fabric 2 module cannot be installed in the Cisco 7603 router.
For redundancy, you can install a second Switch Fabric Module 2. The first-installed Switch Fabric
Module
2 functions as the primary module. When you install two modules at the same time, the module
in slot
5 or slot 7 functions as the primary module, and the module installed in slot 6 or slot 8 functions
as the standby. If you reset the Switch Fabric Module
2 installed in slot 5 or slot 7, the module in slot 6
or slot
8 becomes the primary.

the Switch Fabric Module is operational and active and is orange when the module is in standby mode.
The front panel of the Switch Fabric Module 2 has a 2-line by 20-character LCD display. The display
allows you to monitor the module’s input/outport port traffic and local bus traffic. The display also shows
system information.
Two push button switches control the LCD display:
• SELECT—This switch is used for LCD display menu selection.
• NEXT—This switch is used to scroll to the next item on the LCD display menu.
