Frequently Asked Questions
What is the storage capacity of the Cisco MEM-C4K-FLD64M CompactFlash drive?
The Cisco MEM-C4K-FLD64M is a 64MB CompactFlash memory module designed for Catalyst 4900M switches. This capacity is suitable for storing configuration files and system software on legacy Cisco networking equipment. We offer this discontinued component for organizations maintaining existing Catalyst 4900M infrastructure.
Is the Cisco MEM-C4K-FLD64M compatible with current Catalyst switch models?
The MEM-C4K-FLD64M is specifically designed for the Catalyst 4900M platform and is now discontinued by Cisco. If you're upgrading to newer Catalyst models, we recommend consulting our team about compatible memory modules for current-generation switches. Contact us today to discuss your networking equipment requirements.
What are the differences between the 64MB and 128MB Catalyst 4900M CompactFlash options?
The MEM-C4K-FLD64M provides 64MB of storage, while the MEM-C4K-FLD128M offers 128MB—double the capacity for larger configuration files and system images. The 128MB option is better suited for organizations requiring more storage on their Catalyst 4900M platforms. Both models are now discontinued, but we maintain inventory for legacy system support.
Can the Cisco MEM-C4K-FLD64M be used in other Cisco networking devices?
The MEM-C4K-FLD64M is engineered specifically for Catalyst 4900M switches and is not compatible with other Cisco router or switch platforms. Different Cisco devices require their own designated memory modules—for example, the MEM-CF-4GB-RF is designed for different platforms.

What should I do if I need to replace a failed Cisco MEM-C4K-FLD64M drive?
Since this product is discontinued, replacement options are limited to existing inventory from authorized distributors. We maintain stock of legacy Cisco memory components for organizations supporting older infrastructure. Contact us today to check availability and discuss upgrade paths to current Catalyst platforms if replacement inventory is unavailable.
How does the CompactFlash memory module affect Catalyst 4900M switch performance?
The CompactFlash module serves as non-volatile storage for the switch's operating system and configuration data rather than affecting runtime performance. The 64MB capacity is adequate for standard Catalyst 4900M configurations, though larger deployments may benefit from the 128MB option.
