Cisco Catalyst 6840-X Chassis

The Cisco Catalyst 6840-X is a 2U modular switch offering 40 SFP+ 10 Gbps ports and 2 QSFP+ 40 Gbps WAN ports, with a full-duplex switching capacity of 240 Gbps and an IPv4 routing throughput of 180 Mpps. It differs from the 6807-XL through its fixed 10G SFP+ density (40 built-in ports) and more targeted performance profile, with 256,000 IPv4 routes, 1.5 million NetFlow entries, and 128,000 IPv4 multicast routes. The MAC table holds 128,000 entries under Cisco IOS 15.2(2)SY.

The Catalyst 6840-X suits enterprises and campuses that need a distribution or core switch providing dense 10G SFP+ connectivity and integrated 40G WAN uplinks, without the cost of a fully modular solution. Its support for MPLS, GRE, and PIM enriches complex network topologies. Genuine hardware, manufacturer warranty.
