Modular Port Concentrator (SRX5K-MPC) Specifications
The SRX5K-MPC (see Figure 38 on page 104) is an interface card with two slots that accept MICs. These
MICs add Ethernet ports to your services gateway. An MPC with MICs installed functions in the same way
as a regular IOC but allows you to add different types of Ethernet ports to your services gateway. MPCs
and MICs are similar in form and function to Flex IOCs and port modules. However, the two use different
form-factors, so you cannot install port modules in an MPC, nor can you install MICs in a Flex IOC.
You must install at least one interface card in the services gateway. The interface card can be of any of
the available IOC, Flex IOC, or MPC types. You can add just one MIC; or you can add two MICs of the
same or different types.
You can install MPCs in any of the slots that are not reserved for Switch Control Boards (SCBs).
If a slot in the SRX5400, SRX5600, or SRX5800 Services Gateway card cage is not occupied by a card,
you must install a blank panel to shield the empty slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through
the services gateway. If a slot in an MPC is not occupied by a MIC, you must install a blank panel in the
empty MIC slot to shield it and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through the MPC.
