MPC7E-MRATE Juniper 12xQSFP+/QSFP28 10G/40G/100G Line Card

The Juniper MPC7E-MRATE line card has 12xQSFP+/QSFP28 ports support 10-Gbps, 40-Gbps, & 100-Gbps port speeds.

Features included:

• Line-rate throughput of up to 480 Gbps on MX240, MX480, and MX960 routers.

• Line-rate throughput of up to 400 Gbps on MX2000 routers with SFB, and up to 430 Gbps on MX2000 routers with SFB2.

• Junos Trio chipsets for increased scaling for bandwidth, subscribers, and services

• Twelve Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be configured as 40-Gigabit Ethernet port or as four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports using a breakout cable. The ports support quad small-form factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) transceivers.

• Four out of the twelve ports can be configured as 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports. Port numbers 0/2, 0/5, 1/2 and 1/5 are the four 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports.

• You can configure different combination of port speeds as long as the aggregate capacity per group of six ports labeled 0/0 through 0/5 does not exceed 240 Gbps. Similarly, aggregate capacity per group of the other six ports labeled 1/0 through 1/5 should not exceed 240 Gbps.

• Requires high-capacity power supplies, high-capacity fan trays, and SCBE2 or SCBE3 switch control boards on MX240, MX480, and MX960 routers.

• Requires an adapter card to be housed in MX2000 routers.

• The ports are labeled as (with the MPC orientation as shown in the above figure):

  • 10-Gigabit Ethernet or 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports:

    0/0, 0/1, 0/2 100G, 0/3, 0/4, 0/5 100G, 1/0, 1/1, 1/2 100G, 1/3, 1/4, and 1/5 100G

  • 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports:

    0/2 100G, 0/5 100G, 1/2 100G and 1/5 100G

  NOTE: 

  Only ports marked 100G support 100-Gigabit Ethernet speed using QSFP28 transceivers.

• Supports maximum transmission units (MTUs) from 256 bytes through 16,000 bytes for transit traffic, and from 256 bytes through 9,500 bytes for host bound packets.
