The Juniper MPC10E-15C-X is a high-density Modular Port Concentrator line card for MX Series routers (MX240, MX480, MX960), built on Juniper’s Trio 5 silicon. It packs 12x QSFP28 ports (10/40/100GbE) plus 3x QSFP56-DD ports (10/40/100/400GbE) — 15 ports total — with up to 1.5 Tbps of throughput across three Packet Forwarding Engines (500 Gbps each).
It’s built for operators standardizing on dense 100GbE today while leaving headroom to turn up 400GbE as traffic grows, with inline MACsec support for secure transport. Requires an enhanced midplane and high-capacity power supplies to hit full 1.5 Tbps. Available through TelecomLeasing for purchase or lease.
