T320 Core Router Overview
The T320 router provides 320-Gbps throughput and 385-Mpps forwarding rate and
supports 16 10-Gbps (OC192c/STM64 and 10-Gigabit Ethernet) ports, as well as
OC48c/STM16 for medium and large core networks, as well as for intermediate core
aggregation of access routers, peering, and metro Ethernet network applications, such
as those supported by Internet service providers (ISPs). It provides a cost-effective
migration path to an MPLS infrastructure. The T320 router supports the Junos Operating
System (OS), which provides router configuration and monitoring. Figure 12 on page 28
and Figure 13 on page 29 illustrate the front and rear of a T320 router..)
