The SRX 5600 services gateway is a high-performance, highly-scalable, carrier-class
security device with multi-processor architecture. The services gateway has a capacity
of up to 60 gigabits per second (Gbps), full duplex. The device is eight rack units (RU)
tall. Five devices can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack, for increased port
density per unit of floor space. The device provides eight slots that can be populated
with up to six Services Processing Cards (SPCs) and I/O cards(IOCs) and two Switch
Control Boards (SCBs) in nonredundant fabric configurations.
By installing different combinations of IOCs and SPCs, you can tailor both the number
of Gigabit ports and the maximum security processing capacity to suit your network.
Table 1 on page 3 describes the minimum system configuration for the SRX 5600.
Table 1: Minimum System Configuraton
Fully populated, the device provides up to 200 Gigabit Ethernet or up to 20 10-Gigabit
Ethernet ports. Two types of IOC interface cards are available, each of which consists
of four Packet Forwarding Engines and enables a throughput of 10 Gbps. You can
install any combination of IOC types in the services gateway.
The SRX 5600 provides redundancy and resiliency. The hardware system is fully
redundant, including power supplies and SCBs.
The services gateway is shipped in a cardboard box strapped securely to a wooden
pallet. Plastic straps secure the top and bottom in place. The device chassis is bolted
to this pallet. Quick start installation instructions and a cardboard accessory box are
also included in the shipping container.
