MX480 Dense Port Concentrator (DPC) Description
A Dense Port Concentrator (DPC) is optimized for Ethernet density (see Figure 5 on
page 11). The DPC assembly combines packet forwarding and Ethernet interfaces on a
single board, with either two or four 10-Gbps Packet Forwarding Engines. Each Packet
Forwarding Engine consists of one I-chip for Layer 3 processing and one Layer 2 network
processor. The DPCs interface with the power supplies and Switch Control Boards (SCBs).
The DPC slots are located in the front of the router (see Figure 5 on page 11). The router
has six dedicated DPC slots that are numbered 0 through 5. A DPC can be installed in
any DPC slot on the router. You can install any combination of DPC types in the router.
If a slot is not occupied by a DPC, a DPC blank panel must be installed to shield the empty
slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through the router.
