SRX 5600 and SRX 5800 Services Gateway Flex IOC and Port Module Installation Instructions
Flex I/O Cards and Port Modules
Flex I/O Cards (flex IOCs) are IOCs with two slots, which accept port modules that
add Ethernet ports to your services gateway. A flex IOC with installed port modules
functions in the same way as a regular IOC, but allows greater flexibility in adding
different types of Ethernet ports to your services gateway. Figure 1 on page 2 shows
a flex IOC with two typical port modules installed.

NOTE: Your services gateway must be running JUNOS version 9.5R1 or later in order
to recognize flex IOCs and port modules.
Each flex IOC has a processor subsystem, which includes a 1.2-GHz CPU, a system
controller, 1 GB SDRAM, and two Packet Forwarding Engines (PFEs) with a maximum
throughput of 10 Gbps each. See Installing a Flex IOC" on page 11 and Removing
a Flex IOC" on page 9 for information about installing and removing flex IOCs.
Table 1 on page 2 describes the different port modules available.
