FPC3-PTX-2T-IR Use Case
Tier-1 ISP Peering at Scale with FPC3-PTX-2T-IR
A global Tier-1 Internet service provider deploys the FPC3-PTX-2T-IR on its PTX5000 fabric to terminate 600+ BGP peering sessions and handle a 1.2 million-route table. Leveraging the 3rd-generation 2 Tbps line-card, the ISP achieves sub-50 µs MPLS forwarding, linear scale-out of peering density and deterministic performance under high route-churn. Outcome: sustained sub-ms convergence, 30% lower power per bit and seamless capacity growth without forklift upgrades.
Global CDN Backbone LSR for Ultra-High Throughput
A leading content-delivery network integrates the FPC3-PTX-2T-IR into its PTX5000 spine layer to support 10,000+ tunnelized LSR paths across five continents. The 2 Tbps switching capacity and 256 K per-slot LDP/MPLS labels enable dynamic traffic steering, real-time QoS enforcement and network slicing for video, software and gaming traffic. Outcome: 2× throughput increase, consistent sub-1 ms latency and 40% reduction in operational complexity via unified MPLS control.
Enterprise Data-Center Interconnect and EVPN Fabric
A multinational enterprise deploys FPC3-PTX-2T-IR cards in a PTX5000 mesh to interconnect three data-centers using EVPN/VXLAN-over-MPLS. By terminating 200 Gbps VXLAN tunnels per slot and leveraging the line-card’s hardware-based L3VPN/MPLS engines, the IT team achieves seamless VM mobility, automated WAN path restoration and deterministic packet delivery. Outcome: 99.999% end-to-end availability, 50% faster provisioning and streamlined multicloud connectivity.
