WS-X6748-GE-TX bandwidth

This module is listed as having 40 gigabit bandwidth. I know from the documentation that this is comprised of two 20 gig fabric paths. My questions are:

  1. Is the 40 gig a unidirectional claim or is it 20 gig each direction? The difference being does the card top out when 21 ports push data out at line rate or when 41 ports hit line rate.

  1. Are the 48 ports split between the two 20 gig fabric paths or does any port have access to either fabric path.
