Juniper ModulesYou may want to just use a gig switch that support HSSI, like
a Riverstone, and run gig-e to the juniper. That will work just fine.

  Hi,

  One of my clients currently has a Lucent GRF MultiGigabit Router. They
  intend replacing this with a Juniper Router,

  The problem is that the application is an Asymmetric Satellite Backbone
for
  34/8Mbps. The Lucent product has a HSSI interface which can handle
  Asymmetric rates. As far as I know the Juniper platform does not have a
HSSI
  card. Is this correct.

  The client intends purchasing an E3 card for the Juniper Router.

  Will the E3 card on the Juniper equipment support Asymmetric rates?

  I wouldn't have thought it would but thought I should check.

  Regards
