You can't.  The PA bus is just an old PCI bus, and not really suitable
for today's high-speed interfaces.

Depending on your traffic mix, it might be possible to move one of the
lightly loaded GE links from the NPE-G2 to the PA-GE, and use the port
on the NPE for the link with more load.

OTOH, if you already have 4 loaded GigE links on the NPE-G2, you're near
the limit of the 7200 hardware, and need something faster - depending on
your feature requirements, a 6503/Sup720, an ASR1000, or a ME3600X might
be suitable.
