Inserting G5482 model (at least into WS-X6516A/Cat6500/Sup2/CatOS) 
results into: %SYS-3-TRANSCEIVER_FAILED: Transceiver integrity check on 
port 3/1 failed: bad checksum.

G5482 have higher power requirements, that's I thing main reason, why 
these GBICs aren't supported in other chassis than 25/3500XL/3550... and 
G5483 are supported in 3500XL too, so G5483 seems to be better choice 
(if you can select).
