MPC5E-40G10G Use Case
High-Density Spine-Leaf Data Center Fabric with Scalable L2/L2.5 Forwarding
In a hyperscale data center, network architects deploy the MPC5E-40G10G-MPC5E-40G10G MPC as spine and leaf nodes to support full-scale L2/L2.5 switching and VXLAN/E-tree segmentation. With up to 2 million FIB entries and 6 million RIB entries, the platform handles massive east-west traffic flows across thousands of virtual networks. It delivers wire-speed 40 Gbps uplinks and 10 Gbps server connectivity (optics sold separately), reduces latency, and simplifies VLAN and MAC learning at scale. Outcome: Achieves sub-microsecond forwarding with seamless workload mobility, lowers TCO by consolidating switching and routing in a single card, and ensures predictable performance under multi-tenant loads.
Multi-Tenant L3VPN Service Provider Edge with 32 Instance Isolation
A national service provider uses the MPC5E-40G10G-MPC5E-40G10G MPC in its MPLS-based PE routers to offer up to 32 distinct L3VPN instances per card. Leveraging reduced-scale L3 features alongside 2 million FIB and 6 million RIB capacities, the operator delivers secure, isolated VRF routing for enterprise customers across metro and regional POPs. Optical modules are deployed separately to enable 40 Gbps aggregation and 10 Gbps business access. Outcome: Increases revenue through differentiated VPN services, speeds customer turn-up by 50%, and guarantees SLA compliance with hardware-accelerated route lookups and route target scalability.
Cloud-Scale Inter-Data Center WAN with Dynamic Route Scaling
Global cloud providers integrate the MPC5E-40G10G-MPC5E-40G10G MPC into their core WAN routers to handle up to 6 million routes in the RIB and 2 million in the FIB for dynamic BGP-EVPN fabrics. Full-scale L2/L2.5 switching supports Layer-2 extension services, while reduced-scale L3 routing accelerates inter-site traffic. The modular 40G/10G ports (optics sold separately) facilitate high-capacity interconnects between geo-distributed data centers. Outcome: Delivers sub-2 ms failover times, scales to hundreds of virtual networks, and optimizes bandwidth utilization by 30%, ensuring consistent application performance worldwide.
