Table 1 lists the DPCs supported by the MX-series Ethernet Services routers.
A DPC provides multiple physical interfaces and Packet Forwarding Engines on a single board that installs into a slot within the MX-series Ethernet Services routers. A DPC receives incoming packets from the network and sends outgoing packets to the network. The Packet Forwarding Engines on a DPC are equipped with purpose-built ASICs that perform packet processing and forwarding.
When a slot is not occupied by a DPC, you must insert a blank DPC to fill the empty slot and ensure proper cooling of the system. For complete information about installing and handling DPCs, see the hardware guide for your router.
