Hi guys,

Does anybody know if the WS-SUP32-GE-3B for the  Cisco Catalyst 6500 can do
DWDM via SFPs plugged in the Supervisor itself (the SUP has 8 SFP ports)?
I am searching in Cisco's documentation and i am a bit confused. For
example:

The data sheets for the 6500, under the section "Transceiver Modules" only
list GBICs as a possibiliy for DWDM and not SFP transceivers.

However, when visiting the webpage below i see that a WS-SUP32-GE-3B can
indeed support DWDM SFPs.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/compatibility/matrix/OL_6981.html#wp139256

Can anyone tell for sure what to trust?

Best regards,
Georgios
