You use port modules and flex IOCs to add different combinations of SFP, XFP, and
TX ports to your services gateway to suit the specific needs of your network. The
available port modules are shown in Figure 2 on page 3. See Installing a Port
Module" on page 14 and Removing a Port Module" on page 12 for information
about installing and removing port modules.

Flex IOC Components
Each flex IOC consists of the following components:
Flex IOC cover, which functions as a ground plane and a stiffener
Two slots for port modules
Fabric interfaces
Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that allow control information, route information,
and statistics to be sent between the Routing Engine and the CPU on the flex
IOC
Two interfaces from the SCBs that enable the flex IOC to be powered on and
controlled
Two 10 Gbps PFEs
