Description
Chassis Slot Number
Line Card Type
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. Each packet processing card can
support up to two FLC2s. The active card is installed
in the upper rear chassis slot. The redundant card is
installed in the lower rear chassis slot.
17 through 23, 26
through 39, or 42
through 48
Ethernet 10/100 (FLC2)
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. Each packet processing card can
support up to two GLC2s. The active card is installed
in the upper rear chassis slot. The redundant card is
installed in the lower rear chassis slot.
17 through 23, 26
through 39, or 42
through 48
Ethernet 1000 (GLC2)
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. Each packet processing card can
support up to two QGLCs. The active card is
installed in the upper rear chassis slot. The redundant
card is installed in the lower rear chassis slot.
17 through 23, 26
through 39, or 42
through 48
Quad Gig-E (QGLC)
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. The XGLC is a full-height line card
that occupies the upper and lower slots in the ASR
5000.
17 through 23 and 26
through 32
10 Gigabit Ethernet Card
(XGLC)
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. Each packet processing card can
support up to two OLC2s. The active card is installed
in the upper rear chassis slot. The redundant card is
installed in the lower rear chassis slot.
17 through 23, 26
through 39, or 42
through 48
Optical (ATM) (OLC2)
Resides directly behind its corresponding packet
processing card. Each packet processing card can
support up to two CLC2s. The active card is installed
in the upper rear chassis slot. The redundant card is
installed in the lower rear chassis slot.
7 through 23, 26
through 39, or 42
through 48
Channelized (CLC2)
Line Card Redundancy
To optimize network efficiency and minimize down time, the system supports 1:1 redundancy for OLC2s,
CLC2s, FLC2s, GLC2s, and QGLCs.
With the exception of the XGLC, line cards are installed in the half-height slots at the rear of the chassis. This
design allows two Ethernet or two Optical (ATM) or two Channelized line cards directly behind (one top,
one bottom) every packet processing card that normally operates in active mode.
When two line cards are installed, the card in the upper-rear chassis slot is automatically the active card. The
card in the lower-rear chassis slot is automatically placed in standby mode. In the event that the active card
experiences a failure, the system automatically migrates traffic to the standby card in the lower slot.
