I'm familiar with the various features of the 6500 and Nexus 
7010; what I was asking was what plans Cisco have for 
customers that require 40Gbps/slot and beyond in a pure 
Layer 2 environment, given the current switch fabric 
supported by the 6500.

Tim answered this already (thanks, Tim).

Some competing vendors (already) have plans in this area, in 
some form or another. 

For networks currently switching through 6500's in the core, 
this information is useful for future planning.
