The SRX5600 Services Gateway is a high-performance, highly scalable, carrier-class
security device with multiprocessor architecture. The services gateway is eight rack units
(RU) tall. Three services gateways can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack, for
increased port density per unit of floor space. The services gateway provides six slots
that can be populated with up to four Services Processing Cards (SPCs) and interface
cards and two Switch Control Boards (SCBs) in redundant fabric configurations. The
interface cards can be any of the following types:
I/O cards (IOCs) have fixed ports on their front panels.
Flex I/O cards (Flex IOCs) have two slots on their front panels for smaller cards called
port modules that add additional ports to the services gateway.
Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs) have two slots on their front panels for smaller
cards called Modular Interface Cards (MICs) that add additional ports to the services
gateway.
The SRX5600 Services Gateway provides redundancy and resiliency. The hardware
system is fully redundant, including power supplies and SCBs.
By installing various combinations of interface cards and SPCs, you can tailor both the
number of ports and the maximum services processing capacity to suit your network.

Gateway.
