No, 32 Gbps through PCIe x8. Marketing would have you believe it is 128 Gbps, but using their definitions, a 10 GigE port is 40 Gbps. In reality the VCPs each do 32 Gbps full-duplex, and there are two of them per switch. So 2*(32 in + 32 out) = 128 Gbps. > 40G which uses up actual ports all that exciting? maybe i don't see it > because it doesn't apply to my architecture. :-/ 40 Gbps is bigger than 32 Gbps? Standard cabling? _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
