What is the Enhanced Switch Fabric Card (12010E-SFC) for Cisco 12010?
The 12010E-SFC is a high-capacity line card that boosts your Cisco 12010 router’s switching fabric, delivering up to 560 Gbps per card and up to 1.68 Tbps per chassis for superior network performance.
Which Cisco 12010 platforms support the 12010E-SFC?
The 12010E-SFC is fully compatible with Cisco 12010 router chassis running Cisco IOS XR and requires a Supervisor Engine 2T for integration.
How much throughput does the 12010E-SFC provide?
Each Enhanced Switch Fabric Card delivers up to 560 Gbps of fabric bandwidth and processes up to 80 million packets per second (Mpps) for line-rate forwarding.
Can I mix 12010E-SFC with standard switch fabric cards?
Yes. You can deploy 12010E-SFC alongside legacy fabric cards in the same Cisco 12010 chassis, enabling incremental upgrades without downtime.
What performance gains can I expect over the standard SFC?
The Enhanced SFC offers up to 2× the bandwidth per slot, reduces forwarding latency by 40%, and supports double the multicast and QoS queues.
How do I install the 12010E-SFC in my chassis?
Power down the Cisco 12010 chassis, slide the 12010E-SFC into an available fabric module slot, secure the latch, then power up and verify with the show platform command.
Are additional licenses required for 12010E-SFC?
No. The Enhanced Switch Fabric Card functions under your existing Cisco IOS XR fabric license; no extra licensing fees apply.
What power and cooling specifications apply to 12010E-SFC?
Each card draws 250 W under full load and requires front-to-back airflow at 50 CFM; ensure your chassis power supplies and fans meet Cisco’s thermal guidelines.
How does the 12010E-SFC impact network latency?
By using an optimized ASIC architecture, the Enhanced SFC achieves sub-usec fabric latency, improving time-sensitive application performance.
What scalability does the 12010E-SFC enable?
With 560 Gbps per card and eight fabric slots per chassis, you can scale to 1.68 Tbps of switching capacity to support growing data center and service-provider demands.
