Front-Pluggable MICs
You can install and remove MICs in the MX5, MX10, MX40, and modular MX80 chassis.
The MIC slots are labeled 1/MIC 0 and 1/MIC 1. Each MIC slot has an ejector handle located
above the MIC slot.
You can install MICs of different media types as long as the router supports those MICs.
For complete specifications, see “MICs Supported by MX Series Routers” on page 26.
Fixed (Built-in) MICs
Built-in 10-Gigabit Ethernet MIC
The built-in 10-Gigabit Ethernet MIC is fixed on the MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 routers.
