MxK Hardware Installation Guide
15
The MXK has a non-blocking architecture with a high-speed backplane. Each
line card on the MXK had a dedicated backplane trace to each of the uplink
cards.
The MXK chassis, uplink cards, line cards, and SFPs are temperature
hardened.

Ethernet services
The 20-port Active Ethernet card is a two-slot card that supports 20 SFPs that
can provide copper and fiber services and supports distances as high as 80
Km.
The 10-port Active Ethernet line card line card is a single slot card that
supports Ethernet traffic over 10 ports that provide either 10/100/1000
Base-T, fiber 100FX or 1 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to support distances as
high as 80km depending on the SFPs used.
See Small form factor pluggables on page 492 for information on SFPs for
Ethernet.
GPON
The 4-port and 8-port GPON cards allow per-port speeds of 2.5 Gbps
downstream (on 1490 nm) and 1.25 Gbps upstream (1310nm). The GPON
cards support a simple SC connector SFP with a Burst receive GPON OLT
transceiver.
See Small form factor pluggables on page 492 for information on SFPs for
GPON.
