MPC5EQ-40G10G-IRB Use Case

Multi-Tenant Data Center Fabric with Granular HQoS and 32 L3VPNs

In a global enterprise data center hosting 50+ tenants, the MPC5EQ-40G10G-IRB-MPC5EQ-40G10G MPC provides full-scale L2, L2.5 and L3 switching with integrated HQoS and 1 million traffic queues. By segmenting each tenant into its own IRB instance and leveraging 32 pre-licensed L3VPNs, network operators guarantee secure, SLA-backed traffic isolation and sub-millisecond prioritization for critical workloads. Outcome: 40 Gbps uplinks deliver scalable multi-tenant throughput, granular QoS enforcement prevents noisy-neighbor issues, and pre-packaged licenses shorten deployment by weeks.

Low-Latency High-Frequency Trading (HFT) Network Backbone

A financial services firm implements the MPC5EQ-40G10G-IRB-MPC5EQ-40G10G MPC across its trading floor fabric to support ultra-low-latency order execution. Full-scale L3 routing with hardware IRB enables sub-50 µs inter-VLAN forwarding. HQoS policies and 1 million queues prioritize market data feeds over bulk backups, while 40 GbE uplinks ensure headroom for surges. Outcome: Deterministic packet transit, zero-packet loss during peak volume, and rapid failover under link or node failures—directly translating into faster trade confirmations and reduced slippage.

Service Provider Mobile Edge Compute with Scalable VPNs

A regional ISP deploys the MPC5EQ-40G10G-IRB-MPC5EQ-40G10G MPC at its mobile edge sites to deliver value-added services to enterprise customers. The card’s full-scale L2.5 MPLS capabilities and 32 L3VPN licenses support isolated customer domains, while HQoS with 1 million queues enforces SLAs for voice, video and IoT telemetry. Operators dynamically spin up IRB for on-premises compute offload and seamless inter-site L3 connectivity. Outcome: Rapid service onboarding, guaranteed performance tiers, and simplified OPEX thanks to an all-in-one modular solution (optics sold separately).
