36-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Line Card
The 36-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet line card provides three stacked 2x6 cage assemblies for SFP+ Ethernet
optical interface modules. The 36 SFP+ modules operate at a rate of 10-Gbps.
The card consists of two boards: a motherboard and a daughter board. Major components on the
motherboard include two Network Processors, a CPU, and ASICs. Major components on the daughter
board include four Network Processors, two ASICs, six Hex Phys, and three 2x6 SFP+ cages.
With two RP cards installed in the Cisco ASR 9922 Router, the 36-port10-Gigabit Ethernet line card
runs at line rate. With a single RP card installed in the Cisco ASR 9922 Router, the 36-port 10-Gigabit
Ethernet line card is a 220-Gbps line rate card.
The 36-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet line card is available in either an -SE (Service Edge Optimized) or -TR
(Packet Transport Optimized) version. Both versions are functionally equivalent but vary in
configuration scale and buffer capacity.
Figure 2-31 shows the front panel connectors and indicators of the 36-port 10-GE line card.
