The MX960 3D Universal Edge Router with the standard cable manager is 16 rack units
(U) tall, or 21 U with the extended cable manager. Three routers with the standard cable
manager, or two routers with the extended cable manager, can be stacked in a single
floor-to-ceiling rack, for increased port density per unit of floor space.
The router provides 14 slots that can be populated with up to 12 Dense Port Concentrators
(DPCs) or Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs), six Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs),
and two Switch Control Boards (SCBs) in nonredundant fabric configurations.
Several types of DPCs are available. Each DPC includes either two or four Packet
Forwarding Engines. Each Packet Forwarding Engine enables a throughput of 10 Gbps.
Up to two PICs can be installed in each FPC. Fully populated, the MX960 router supports
up to 12 PICs.
Up to two Modular Interface Cards (MICs) can be installed in each MPC. Fully populated,
the MX960 router supports up to 24 MICs.
For a list of the supported DPCs, FPCs, MPCs, MICs, and PICs, see the MX Series Interface
Module Reference.
The router is shipped in a cardboard box strapped securely to a wooden pallet. Plastic
straps secure the top and bottom in place. The router chassis is bolted to this pallet.
Quick Start installation instructions and a cardboard accessory box are also included in
the shipping container.
