40Gbps support on 6807-XL

Hi,

Just wanted to know what options are available for 40Gbps support on linecards for the 6807-XL? Seems only WS-X6904-40G-2T and WS-X6904-40G-2TXL?

Can this particular linecard (c6800-32p10g) ports be converted to 40gb? And can 40 Gbps fibre optic links be connected to the c6800-32p10g?

All Catalyst 6800 series line cards support CVR-4SFP10G-QSFP Adapter. Due to power limitations on line card, one port per port-group can be operated on 40G and connected to CVR-4SFP10G-QSFP Adapter. Please refer Table 10-3 40G Ports supported on port groups.
