Hi, Gert I figured the RSFC reference would get a nod :-)
Ah, the times. The RSFC actually came later, the RSM was before that -
not a feature card for the Sup, but a full-sized 7500-RSP2 folded into
a cat5k line

Hi,
I got some money to upgrade my network infrastructure from 1Gbps to 10Gbps.

Sup2T was because the Sup720 is already 6 years old and I don't know if
it is going to last another 6 years. That's why I decided to ask on this
thread. You all seem pretty enthusiast about it.

I can because the 6500 lets me, and lets me do it so trivially easy.
We do much the same.

So, 2 slots for sup720's and fill the rest of the slots with 6704's
and you can do 28 line rate 10G ports. Packet rate can get a bit
dicey when it gets really high on the 6704's but other than that,
fairly solid cards. Minimal routing means that you should be able to
use that Sup720 for a while.

The 6[78]16 cards are only 40g. Each 4 port group has 10g. We have some, and
frankly they're a bit awkward because of this.
the 6[78]16 are the only 10GBASE-T though and I'm trying to keep it simple.

How far do you plan to expand in the next 6 years?
We currently have 10 racks and planning to add another two in the next 3
months. Considering the density of cpu power is increasing I calculated
around 16 racks in the next 6 years.
The rack switches will also be 10GBASE-T. This allows me
