About Jumbo frames  

To reduce host frame processing overhead, the WSM supports Jumbo frames of up to 9018 octets. Jumbo frames are received and transmitted between the WSM and any Gigabit network adapter that can handle frame sizes of 9K and higher. By sending one Jumbo frame instead of many smaller frames, the same task requires less processing.

Jumbo frames can be transmitted and received between Gigabit adapter-enabled hosts through the WSM across any VLAN that has Jumbo frames enabled.
