Funny enough the MPC7 has no reduced Bandwidth with the non enhanced Midplane, so for now only MPC4/5 suffer from that old midplane. I always wondered why that is the case. Might be a combination of PFE/Trio Generation and frequency/speed per Serdes to Fabric connectivity. If somebody knows the details i am eager to know. We will see what SCBE3 might bring there (other than allowing us to run MPC7 at full speed with redundancy and pave the way for future MPC) -- Kind Regards Tobias Heister _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
