The ACX Series Universal Access Routers are Ethernet-optimized mobile backhaul routers
that provide both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The ACX Series routers
enable a wide range of business and residential applications and services, including
microwave cell site aggregation, mobile backhaul service cell site deployment, and service
provider or operator cell site deployment. The routers have high-density Ethernet
interfaces and high-capacity switching throughput.
An ACX Series router has a built-in Routing Engine and one Packet Forwarding Engine.
The Packet Forwarding Engine has one "pseudo" Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC 0).
Because there is no switching fabric, the single Packet Forwarding Engine takes care of
packet forwarding.
The compact ACX500 indoor router is one rack unit (U; that is, 1.75 in., or 4.45 cm) tall.
Several routers can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack for increased port density
per unit of floor space. The chassis is a rigid sheet metal structure that houses all the
other router components. The chassis of the ACX500 indoor router measures 1.75 in.
(4.45 cm) high, 9.4 in. (24 cm) deep, and 17.5 in. (44.5 cm) wide. The outer edges of the
mounting brackets extend the width to 19.2 in. (48.7 cm) (with mounting brackets
attached). The chassis installs in standard 300-mm deep (or larger) enclosed cabinets,
19-in. equipment racks, or telco open-frame racks. The ACX500 indoor router is available
in both AC and DC models.
