Line Card (MX10K-LC2101)

The MX10016 has 16 horizontal line card slots and supports line rates for each line card. The line cards
include a Packet Forwarding Engine and Ethernet interfaces enclosed in a single assembly. The MX10016
line card architecture is based on a number of identical, independent Packet Forwarding Engine slices,
each with 400 Gbps full-duplex throughput. Line cards are FRUs that can be installed in the line card slots
labeled 0 through 15 (top to bottom) on the front of the chassis. All line cards are hot-removable and
hot-insertable. After the hot insertion, the line card comes online automatically.
The MX10K-LC2101 line card is available for the MX10016. The MX10K-LC2101 line card can support
24 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports with a 28-Gbps quad smallform-factor pluggable (QSFP28) transceiver, or
24 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports with a QSFP transceiver. The MX10K-LC2101 line cards also support
10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. For 10-Gigabit Ethernet, you must configure the port using the channelization
command. Because there is no port-groups option for the 100-Gigabit Ethernet line card, you must use
individual port channelization commands.
Figure 5 on page 26 shows the MX10K-LC2101 line card.

Switch Fabric Boards

Five Switch Fabric Boards (SFBs) provide the necessary switching functionality to an MX10016 router. A
sixth SFB is available in the redundant configuration to provide n+1 redundancy. SFBs are installed between
