Can I use Catalyst 6504E slot2 for ethernet module or service module?

[iotoiotoioto]

I am thinking composition of catalyst6504E.

can I use slot2 of catalyst6504E for ethernet module or service module?

cisco configuration tool answer OK.

But cisco power calclator point out me.

Slot 2 is redundant supervisor-engine slot. It will allocate either the power of a supervisor engine or of the line card, whichever is greater. The Actual Output Current, Out Power and Heat Dissipation for your selected line card are 4.09A,171.78W,and 690.15 BTU/Hr

[Jon Marshall]

Not sure what you are asking. Both your outputs show that you can indeed use slot 2 for any module you want.

Perhaps you could clarify.

thanks, Jon.

sorry, I just saw "Slot 2 is redundant supervisor-engine slot. "

and my colleague say it's impossible.

so I asked.

did anyone use that composition?

According to the table above and as Jon stated yes you can.

[Jon Marshall · Accepted solution]

As pointed out by Francisco you can use redudant slot for any module you like.

thank you all.

I agree with you.
