The Cisco Catalyst 9600X-SUP-2 is an enhanced Supervisor Engine 2 based on the NEW Cisco Silicon One Q200 ASIC, purpose-built for next-generation Campus Core and Edge designs requiring high-performance and scale routing and switching capabilities. It provides bandwidth for dense high-speed interfaces from 10G-50G SFP and 40G-400G QSFP, with deep QoS buffers. It is intended for campus gateway (internet) deployments that require high IPv4 or IPv6 route scale. The Catalyst 9600 Series switches offer industry-leading supervisor engines built for secure networks, IoT applications, next-generation mobility, and cloud adoption. The C9600X-SUP-2 offers higher throughput with a capacity of 2.88 Tbps compared to the standard C9600-SUP-2's 1.44 Tbps and supports up to 6.4 Tbps (3.2 Tbps full-duplex) per slot with a total capacity of 25.6 Tbps (12.8 Tbps full-duplex). It features an 8-core Intel 2.7 GHz x86 CPU, 32 GB RAM, 16 GB Flash Memory, and up to 960 GB SATA SSD storage. It supports wire-rat
