MX240 Application Services Modular Processing Card Description
The Application Services Modular Processing Card (AS MXC) is a pluggable X86-based
card that can be inserted into the lower slot of the Application Services Modular Line
Card (AS MLC). The AS MXC serves as the processing card for the Junos Content Encore
system and contains the two X86, Intel 8-core processors with interface ability greater
than 80 Gbps. The AS MXC (see Figure 31 on page 87) is equivalent to a PIC or MIC
(Modular Interface Card).
AS MXCs are hot-removable and hot-insertable. One MXC can be installed in the lower
slot of each AS MLC. Each MXC has these components:
•
Two 8-core Intel processors—Contains eight execution cores with Ring Interconnect
architecture. Each core supports two threads, up to 16 threads per socket.
•
64 GB DRAM—On DIMM sockets.
•
LEDs—Two LEDs on the faceplate display the CPU and application status.
