I agree! I am confused on the issue. I ordered the GBIC-SX for the 6509 but was worried about the difference between it and the WS-X5484. What is the difference?????? I can't find any information saying concretely that there is a difference.

If so, where on CCO does it say so? If not, then why not use a single part number? I ask because there seems to be a difference of opinion, with some folks at Cisco saying absolutely they are different and not interchangeable, and some folks not at Cisco, but with beau coup field experience saying there is no difference whatsoever and the parts are exchangeable problem free. just wondering where a guy goes to get The Truth ;-> ""Larry Letterman"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > you apparently dont need the token or cat switch > anymore if you are taking the lab after october... > > > Larry Letterman > Cisco Systems > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > Hunt Lee > Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 7:02 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: CCIE home lab [7:46395] > > > Hi, > > I know that this may have come up many times.
