PICs are available in supported media types, including Asynchronous Transfer Mode
(ATM), Channelized DS3, E1, E3, T1, Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and IP services. For more
information about supported PICs for each M Series router type, see the appropriate PIC

The M120 router Internet Processor II ASIC forwards packets at a throughput rate of up
to 120 Gbps. The ASIC technology provides such packet processing as route lookups,
filtering, sampling, rate limiting, load balancing, buffer management, switching, and
encapsulation and de-encapsulation of IP services.
