RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports
Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC introduces a new RSP720 with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) uplink ports
(RSP720-10GE). The Cisco 7600 RSP720-10GE consists of a full-size board and two integrated
daughter cards: an MSFC4 and a PFC. The RSP720-10GE has an integrated switch fabric that
interconnects all of the line cards in the router with point-to-point 20-Gbps full-duplex serial channels.
Two versions of the RSP720-10GE module are available:
• RSP720-3C-10GE
• RSP720-3CXL-10GE
Because of physical differences between the RSP720 and RSP720-10GE (such as the CPU memory map
and ASIC operation), there are several configuration guidelines and restrictions you should be aware of.
See the “RSP720-10GE Usage Guidelines and Limitations” section on page 2-13 for details.
Following are the total power requirements for the RSP720-10GE:
• RSP720-3C-10GE = 355 watts (total power)
• RSP720-3CXL-10GE = 378 watts (total power)
Figure 2-2 shows the RSP720-3C-10GE front panel. The RSP720-3CXL-10GE front panel is similar.
See Table 2-8 and Table 2-9 for information about the front-panel controls and LEDs.
