I believe the 6348 should only be used in the access layer (switched only environment running pure CatOS, no MSFC), and only in voice (or maybe 802.11 wireless - that's sort of streching the inline power value of the blades) applications. The 6148 should also only be used in the access layer, but should be purchased in favor of the 6348 today (the 6348 is outdated). the 6148-rj-45v module can be used for voice applications. The 6548 module is a 10/100 Ethernet module more suited for the network core, although I'm not sure what applications would be needed in the "core" (maybe at the edge for peering?) for 10/100 Ethernet. Possibly for packet capture devices run to SPAN/RSPAN -enabled ports? Other NMS devices??
