C9600-SUP-1/2 is the Cisco Catalyst 9600 redundant Supervisor 1 module ordering identifier. The ordering guide separates it from C9600-SUP-1 and from C9600X-SUP-2/2. Preserve the complete suffix on the quotation: it identifies the redundant Supervisor 1 order, not Supervisor Engine 2.
Cisco lists the Supervisor 1 family for the C9606R chassis. Capture the installed supervisor identity, chassis inventory and software release before specifying a redundant module. A redundant-module order does not by itself establish that a second supervisor is already present, configured or operating as a healthy standby.
Ask for the exact delivered quantity and included accessories. This order is a supervisor module, not a complete C9606R switch package with linecards and power supplies. The /2 suffix should remain an order identity rather than being used to infer that two modules are included in this sale.
The platform hardware table records IOS XE Gibraltar 16.11.1 as the introductory release for Supervisor 1. That historical starting point is not a recommendation to deploy that release today. Validate the intended software, redundancy procedure and support entitlement for the actual system before installation.
