Ummm, well, for all the boards I've checked the cisco docs so far (NP-4T,
NM-4T, PA-4T) it was in the specs.
The PA-8T-X.21 has two groups of 4x2, so it can do 2x 8 Mbit, but not
16Mbit.

Those *are* the specs :-)
From experiments I know that a 1601 *can* run its T port at 4 Mbits
and it will only lead to an "occasional" packet drops. I wouldn't
actually use it that way, though...
