Juniper Line Card types

Juniper Line Card Types (DPC, MPC Etc)

I'm going to build on this post as I come across each of the different types but it can get very confusing talking about the different types of Juniper Line Cards, so here is a reference:

DPC - Dense Port Concentrator
ichip based cards which are available for the MX series routers
They come in 3 variations:
DPCE-R - Routing and Switching, operate as complete L3 router or Full L2 switch
DPCE-X - Limited Scale L3. Cost optimized line case
DPCE-Q - Enhanced Queueing, up to 64,000 queues per card. Per VLAN queueing.

MPC - Modular Port Concentrator
trio based cards for the MX series routers. They support full LS, L2 and application services. MICs are used inside MPCs to provide interfaces.
MPC1 - 32k IFL, port queues, 30Gbps
MPC2 - 64k IFL, port queues, 60Gbps
MPC1-Q - 32k IFL, VLAN queues, 128k I/E queues, 30Gbps
MPC2-Q - 64k IFL, VLAN queues, 256k I/E queues, 60 Gbps
MPC2-E-Q - 64k IFL, VLAN queues, 512k queues, 60Gbps

MX-FPC - MX Flexible Port Concentrator
These are used to add non-Ethernet interfaces to an MX series chassis. They take up 2 slots and have reduced performance (2.5 Gbps Type 2 or 10Gbps Type 3)

More to come as I come across them...
