The Cisco Catalyst 6807-XL chassis is capable of delivering up to 11.4 terabits per second (Tbps) of system bandwidth capacity and up to 880 gigabits per second (Gbps) of per-slot bandwidth. In a system configured for VSS, this translates to a system capacity of 22.8 Tbps while the Supervisor Engine 2T is Delivering up to 80 Gbps per slot of switching capacity on E-Series chassis; 2-Terabit aggregate bandwidth capacity using the 6513-E chassis, scaling to 4-Terabit capacity with VSS. Support for up to 1056 ports of 1Gbps and 352 ports of 10Gbps systems deployed with VSS , so i need to know how the supervisor engine 2t will get the speed 11.4 terabits per second?

No. Sup2T can support up to 220 Gbps per slot speed.

6807 can support up to 880 Gbps per slot speed.

The next supervisor card to supersede the Sup2T can support up to 440 Gbps. Another supervisor card (rumoured to be released in 2018) can fully exploit the 6807 backplane speed of 880 Gbps.
