SRX5800 Services Gateway Services Processing Card Components

Each SPC consists of the following components:

  • SPC cover, which functions as a ground plane and a stiffener.
  • Two Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Chassis Cluster Control ports for connecting multiple devices into a redundant chassis cluster. Refer to the JUNOS Software Security Configuration Guide for more information about connecting and configuring redundant chassis clusters.

    Note: Juniper strongly recommends the use of Juniper SFP transceivers. Juniper cannot guarantee correct operation if non-Juniper transceivers are used. The transceiver type can be different in each port, as long as a supported part number is used.

  • Fabric interfaces.
  • Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that allow control information, route information, and statistics to be sent between the Routing Engine and the CPU on the SPCs.
  • Two interfaces from the SCBs that enable the boards to be powered on and controlled.
  • Physical SPC connectors.
  • Midplane connectors and power circuitry.
  • Processor subsystem, which includes a 1.2-GHz CPU, system controller, and 1 GB of SDRAM.
  • LEDs on the faceplate indicate the SPC status (see ).
