Overview
The JNP10K-LC2101 (also known as MX10K-LC2101) is a fixed-configuration Modular Port Concentrator (MPC) designed for high-capacity routing in Juniper’s MX10008, MX10004, and MX10016 routers. It offers multi-rate Ethernet connectivity (10 GbE, 40 GbE, and 100 GbE per port), enabling flexible deployment in varied networking scenarios. The module integrates six Packet Forwarding Engines for robust line-rate throughput, making it ideal for data centers, telecom infrastructure, and high-density edge routing. The JNP10K-LC2101 is a high-density, high-throughput fixed line card module, engineered for deployment in MX Series universal edge routers. It offers multi-rate flexibility, substantial forwarding capabilities, and operational resilience via detailed status indicators and compatibility with various switch-fabric configurations. Its power and cooling design is optimized for continuous operation in demanding network environments. With support for extended MTU sizes and smooth integration into Junos OS, this line card is ideal for scaling carrier-grade and large-enterprise networks.
