Yes, it is Qumran-based. 1M FIB, deep buffers, HQoS.

*Sounds* promising, but only if it comes out on a similar price tag as
the ACX5048. Or else there's no good reason not to use the MX204 for
PE like someone else mentioned.

There's also the ACX6030 on the horizon, running a "PTX" silicon with
a reduced feature set.
