Those are specifically 10G ports not 1G.
We run these on some of our MX960 and MX480, both toward core and edge.
They are fine high density 10G cards.

Things to note. Card has 4 PFE; each MQ chip is good for ~70Gbps give or
take +/- 10Gbps depending on packet sizes.
This packet memory bandwidth is shared between both wan-facing and
fabric-facing ports.

Meaning, if you run wan-fabric traffic you get 35Gbps max. If you run
wan-wan traffic you can get near line-rate (this is how fabricless mx80
gets ~80Gbps).

This is the definition of "full line rate" with these MPC2 cards.

Regards

Dragan
