The datasheet for the new MX 3D line cards is a little strange. Assuming that a find-and-replace of "KB" to "K" will make it more coherent, this is an awesome amount of queues when comparing to competitors. However, the new FPC/PIC-like card strategy is in 30Gb/s and 60Gb/s flavors. Given that the 16x10GE card is oversubscribed this looks like the old DPC 4x10Gb/s stacked complex design (except now it is 4x30Gb/s?). I guess this because the numbering is much like the DPC in that they are 0/0-3 1/0-3 2/0-3 3/0-3. Would Juniper really come out with a 30Gb/s (full duplex) chipset? With no 40GE announcement I can only assume this chipset is going to be damn hard (or expensive) to do 40GE interfaces.
