encapsulate the packets received from the FPCs. Each PIC is equipped with an ASIC that performs control
functions specific to the media type of that PIC.
PICs are hot-removable and hot-insertable. You can install up to two PICs in the slots in each FPC. PICs
used in an FPC2 have captive screws at their upper and lower corners. PICs used in a Type 3 FPC have an
upper ejector handle and a lower captive screw.

MX240 PIC Port and Interface Numbering

Each port on a PIC corresponds to a unique interface name in the CLI.
In the syntax of an interface name, a hyphen (-) separates the media type from the FPC number (represented
as an FPC in the CLI). The FPC slot number corresponds to the first number in the interface. The second
number in the interface corresponds to the PIC number. The last number in the interface matches the port
number on the PIC. Slashes (/) separate the FPC slot number from the PIC number and port number:
type-fpc/pic/port
type—Media type, which identifies the network device. For example:
ge—Gigabit Ethernet interface
so—SONET/SDH interface
xe—10-Gigabit Ethernet interface
For a complete list of media types, see Interface Naming Overview.
fpc—Lowest slot number in which the FPC is installed. On the MX240 router, the FPC occupies two line
card slots and is represented in the CLI as FPC 0 or FPC 1.
pic—PIC number, 0 or 1 depending on the FPC slot.
For more information on specific PICs, see
on page 128 in the MX Series Interface Module
port—Port number.
The FPC installs horizontally in either slots 1/0 and 1, or slots 1 and 2 and accepts up to two PICs.
Figure 36 on page 127 shows a Channelized OC12/STM4 Enhanced IQ (IQE) PIC with SFP installed in PIC
slot 0 of an FPC installed in slot 1 and slot 2.
