The Cisco WS-X4624-SFP-E is a 24-port Gigabit Ethernet line card for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series switch family, providing 24 nonblocking SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) ports for flexible fiber or copper Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Designed for enterprise, mid-market, and commercial core/distribution deployments requiring line-rate capability, it also serves service provider applications such as Gigabit Ethernet aggregation for DSLAM/PON/mobile data backhaul. It inherits Quality of Service (QoS) capability from the Supervisor Engine, helping ensure predictable and scalable high performance across the Catalyst 4500 E-Series chassis line.
