32x10GE MPC4E

Software release

  • Junos OS Release 12.3R2 and later

Description

  • Fixed configuration MPC with thirty-two 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports

  • Power requirement: 12.7 A @ 48 V (610 W)

  • Weight: 19.4 lb (8.8 kg)

  • Model number: MPC4E-3D-32XGE-SFPP

Hardware features

  • Line-rate throughput of up to 260 Gbps

  • WAN-PHY mode at 10 Gbps on a per-port basis

  • Supports maximum transmission unit (MTU) size of 9,192 bytes for host bound packets. For Junos OS 16.1R1 and later releases, the MTU size supported is 9,500 bytes.

  • Supported on MX2020, MX2010, MX960, MX480, and MX240 routers with both normal-capacity and high-capacity power supplies and fan trays.

Note:

By default on MX480 routers, only 5 out of the 6 line-card slots can be populated with MPC4Es. By default on MX960 routers, only 10 out of the 11 line-card slots can be populated with MPC4Es. This is a power restriction of default operating mode which supports operation at 55°C ambient temperature. You can insert other line-cards in the remaining slots as long as the power budget is not exceeded. However, if ambient-temperature is configured to 25°C or 40°C, all the 6 slots of an MX480 can be populated with MPC4E, and all the 11 slots of an MX960 can be populated with MPC4E. For more information about power requirements, see Power Requirements for an MX480 Router, and Power Requirements for an MX960 Router.

Software features

  • Optical diagnostics and related alarms

  • Up to 260 Gbps of full-duplex traffic

  • Intelligent oversubscription services

  • Configurable LAN-PHY and WAN-PHY mode options per port

  • Local loopback

  • Configurable to interoperate with routers that use the 100-Gigabit Ethernet PIC (Type 4 PIC on Type 4 FPC)

  • See Protocols and Applications Supported on the MPC4E for MX Series Routers for information about the protocols and applications that this MPC supports.

Cables and connectors
Tip:

You can use the Hardware Compatibility Tool to find information about the pluggable transceivers supported on your Juniper Networks device.

The list of supported transceivers for the MX Series is located at https://pathfinder.juniper.net/hct/category/#catKey=100001&modelType;=All&pf;=MX+Series.

Note:

SFPP-10GE-ZR has a commercial temperature rating and is not NEBS compliant when plugged into the 32x10GE MPC4E with SFP+. If the ambient air temperature exceeds 50°C (122°F), Junos OS disables the transmitter, which takes the optical transceiver offline.

Note:

SFPP-10G-DT-ZRC2 is not NEBS compliant when plugged into the MPC4E-3D-32XGE-SFPP MPC. If the ambient air temperature exceeds 50°C (122°F), Junos OS disables the transmitter, which takes the optical transceiver offline.

Note:

On the MX960 router, all the MPC slots work in a chassis temperature of up to 40°C (104°F), at an altitude of up to 6000 feet. However, when the chassis temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F),

  • the slot 11 does not work with MPC3E-3D-NG, MPC3E-3D-NG-Q, MPC4E, and MPC5E.

  • the slot 0 does not work with MPC4E and MPC5E.

LEDs

OK/FAIL LED, one bicolor:

  • Steady green—MPC is functioning normally.

  • Blinking green—MPC is transitioning online or offline.

  • Red—MPC has failed.

Enable/disable LED, one bicolor per port:

  • Green—Port is enabled.

  • Red—Port has failed.

  • Off—Port is disabled.

The enable/disable LEDs are arranged in four groups:

  • 0/0 through 0/7

  • 1/0 through 1/7

  • 2/0 through 2/7

  • 3/0 through 3/7
