GBIC in 6509 and GBIC for 7206/ASR 1002

[network_user]

Hello,

We have a 6509 Sup2 at our ISP edge with fiber connection to ISP. I am planning on replacing the 6509 either with 7206VXR-GE2 or ASR 1002.

How do I find out what GBIC is installed on my Sup2 right now where Fiber cable is connected?

What GBIC/SFP will be compatible for this on 7206VXR or ASR1002?

If I use SFP do I need to change the cable connector?

Thank you.

Hii,

To find out which type of GBIC connector is present in your SUP2 right now, you can issue:-

show inventory

show int x/y trasceiver detail

Also,once you know the model of GBIC , try to lookup CCO and find compatiblity matrix for 7200 hw and sw and you will be all set..!

Hello Vijaya,

Thanks for your response. Show int x/y transceiver de is not available on my 6509 switch. And when I do show inventory I get below output:

Hi,

They are different.  You can not use the GBIC from your sup 2 and put it in an ASR.  Sup 2 uses regular GBIC with SC type connector and ASR uses SFP with LC type connector. So, you need to get 1Gig SFP for your ASR.

The following SFP are supported on the ASR:

SFP-GE-T
SFP-GE-S
SFP-GE-L
SFP-GE-Z
CWDM SFP
DWDM SFP
