CISCO CATALYST 6503 AND 6506 FIREWALL SECURITY SYSTEM
Cisco Systems announces the Cisco Catalyst 6503 Firewall Security System-a 5-Gbps firewall system with one open slot to give customers flexibility to add input/output (I/O) options ranging from 48-port 10/100 to 16-port Gigabit Ethernet or service options. The system provides a turnkey solution that integrates the high-performance 5-Gbps firewall service module with Layer 2/3 functionality and the benefits of the Cisco Catalyst 6503 Switch to enable flexible deployment of integrated security from the wiring closet to the perimeter edge.
The Cisco Catalyst 6506 Firewall Security System delivers the same 5-Gbps firewall performance with four open slots to provide additional security scalability and flexibility to add I/O or service options. The additional slots can provide increased firewall capacity through additional firewall service modules and the flexibility to implement control and processing module redundancy configurations, add additional I/O interfaces for wiring closet and extranet deployments, and integrate additional services, such as intrusion detection systems (IDSs), network analysis, content switching, and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) in the same chassis.

CISCO CATALYST 6503 AND 6506 IPSEC VPN SYSTEM
The 1.9-Gbps Cisco Catalyst 6503 IPSec VPN System has one open slot for flexible I/O options. Integrating the high-performance IPSec VPN service module with the Cisco Catalyst 6503, the solution enables flexible, high-performance virtual private networking in campus and WAN edge VPN deployment scenarios.
The Cisco Catalyst 6506 IPSec VPN system delivers the same 1.9-Gbps IPSec VPN performance with four open slots to provide additional future-proof flexibility, redundancy, and the addition of high-density I/O or other service options.
