Juniper MX240 - DPC Components; Figure 20: Typical Dpcs Supported on the MX240 Router; Figure 21: DPC Installed Horizontally in the MX240 Router

If a slot is not occupied by a DPC or an SCB, a blank panel must be installed to shield the
empty slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through the router.
Figure 20 on page 50 shows typical DPCs supported on the MX240 router. For more
information about DPCs, see the MX Series Interface Module Reference.

DPC Components
Each DPC consists of the following components:
•
DPC cover, which functions as a ground plane and a stiffener.
•
Fabric interfaces.
•
Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that allow control information, route information, and
statistics to be sent between the Routing Engine and the CPU on the DPCs.
