Alas, the Sup2T doesn't really support a lot of old cards. More recent
software for the Sup720 has also dropped support for older modules, e.g.
WLSM, last supported in SXF.

It personally find it prudent of Cisco to drop support. If the hardware
is still functional after 8-10 years there's probably nothing wrong with
using it in a chassis running "mature" software. As long as you can buy
support for the setup of course.
