Sorry – realized I was referencing DC power on MX2010 and then posted output
from an AC powered MX2010 but you get the idea ….
MX480 power levels for comparison (AC power):
PEM 0:
State: Online
AC input: OK (1 feed expected, 1 feed connected)
Capacity: 2050 W (maximum 2050 W)
DC output: 228 W (zone 0, 4 A at 57 V, 11% of capacity)
PEM 1:
State: Online
AC input: OK (1 feed expected, 1 feed connected)
Capacity: 2050 W (maximum 2050 W)
DC output: 114 W (zone 0, 2 A at 57 V, 5% of capacity)
PEM 2:
State: Online
AC input: OK (1 feed expected, 1 feed connected)
Capacity: 2050 W (maximum 2050 W)
DC output: 174 W (zone 0, 3 A at 58 V, 8% of capacity)
PEM 3:
State: Online
AC input: OK (1 feed expected, 1 feed connected)
Capacity: 2050 W (maximum 2050 W)
DC output: 232 W (zone 0, 4 A at 58 V, 11% of capacity)
System:
Zone 0:
Capacity: 4100 W (maximum 4100 W)
Allocated power: 1216 W (2884 W remaining)
Actual usage: 748 W
Total system capacity: 4100 W (maximum 4100 W)
Total remaining power: 2884 W
This box is also pretty light on linecards – dual RE-S-1800x4 routing engines
and a pair of MPC2E linecards (each with 8x10G ports) doing LNS/BRAS functions

I don’t find the MX480 too bad on power overall but that’s relevant to what
you’re used to as well .. the MX2010/2020 series though I find excessive.
MX2010 on DC requires a 9x60A connections in spec, however thankfully usage is
very low compared to spec at least using a 1/4 populated chassis for reference:
PSM 0:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 349.31 W (6.75 A at 51.75 V, 13.97% of capacity)

PSM 2:

AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 310.50 W (6.00 A at 51.75 V, 12.42% of capacity)
PSM 3:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 338.00 W (6.50 A at 52.00 V, 13.52% of capacity)
PSM 4:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 336.38 W (6.50 A at 51.75 V, 13.45% of capacity)
PSM 5:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 338.00 W (6.50 A at 52.00 V, 13.52% of capacity)
PSM 6:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 312.00 W (6.00 A at 52.00 V, 12.48% of capacity)
PSM 7:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 312.00 W (6.00 A at 52.00 V, 12.48% of capacity)
PSM 8:
State: Online
AC input: OK (Both feed expected, Both feed connected)
Capacity: 2500 W (maximum 2500 W)
DC output: 325.00 W (6.25 A at 52.00 V, 13.00% of capacity)
System:
Capacity: 22500 W (maximum 22500 W)
Allocated power: 8770 W (13730 W remaining)
Actual usage: 2970.50 W
This particular MX has dual RE-S-1800x4 routing engines, (2) MPC4E w/ 2CGE+8XGE
, and a 16 port MPC 10 G linecard… pretty light on linecards at the moment…

The MX platform is, but also very power hungry.

It's a virtualized MX series. To those already doing SDN with Juniper APIs that
offers some very nice features without having to reinvent the sdn control
interface.

vMX was really exciting until it wasn't that much different in price from
hardware with the same capabilities from Juniper. It's like $20k for a license
to do 10G and "advanced" features.

I may be looking at some juniper vMX and Brocade vrouter for other projects in
the near future for low/intermediate routing (10+ Gbps). Both use Intel DPDK,
similar CLI.
Most of us aren't buying MX960s. ;-)

I agree, but that can get very expensive.

Subject: [AFMUG] 10G router(s) with redundancy?
What are some options for 10G capable routers that won't break the bank that
have 3+ 10G ports? Was planning two ccr1072 with ibgp but maybe I should be
considering something else ?
Also what are some models of 10G switches (sfp+) that have 4+ ports?
