[c-nsp] C6800-32P10G-XL 40G Support?

[Nick Cutting]

I asked this same questions a few weeks back - and someone at cisco replied on this list about the cable being released Q1 2016 - but the software on SUP2T will not support it until Q3.

no personal experience with this and not sure if CVR-4SFP-QSFP can be ordered already, but the Hardware Installation Guide already mentions this (which should be an official document):
