How will we compare a Cisco "WS-C4507R+E" versus a "WS-C4507R-E" chassis?

Folks,

How best can I compare a Cisco "WS-C4507R+E" versus a "WS-C4507R-E" chassis? I understand that the SUP 8E is not supported in the later model and there are some per slot bandwidth upgrades.

Is there anything else that should provoke me to look at upgrade options?

Thanks,

N.

The difference between the two is the Line Card Backplane Speed.  Go HERE.

Just for your information guys, SUP-8E is supported on Chassis "WS-C4507R-E"

It was in the road map from cisco and now it is supported.

Just issue the "Show Inventory" command and see the Chassis VID.

If it is 2.0 or higher then SUP-8E is supported

you can find it in the below link

Please do rate it if you find it helpful

Thanks.
