MPC7EQ-MRATE-B Use Case
Hybrid 10/40/100G Data Center Spine Aggregation
A global cloud provider deploys the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B-12 line card in its aggregation layer to support mixed-rate 10/40/100G spine-to-leaf connections. Four QSFP28 ports deliver 100G uplinks, while eight QSFP+ ports handle 10G/40G traffic. Full L2/L2.5 features enable EVPN-VXLAN segmentation, and Per-VLAN queueing with HQoS guarantees tenant SLAs. Outcome: scalable, high-density bandwidth with predictable latency. Optics sold separately.
Scalable Enterprise Campus Backbone with Traffic Prioritization
A multinational bank upgrades its campus core with MPC7EQ-MRATE-B-12 to unify 10G, 40G and 100G inter-building links. Four QSFP28 ports support 100G backhaul, eight QSFP+ ports handle legacy 10/40G. Reduced-scale L3 routing segments departmental VLANs, while full Per-VLAN queueing and HQoS ensure voice and video receive strict priority. Outcome: single-platform deployment, consistent performance and SLA compliance. Optics sold separately.
Multi-Tenant Service Provider Edge Aggregation
A managed service provider uses MPC7EQ-MRATE-B-12 at its edge POPs to aggregate business Ethernet and E-Line services across 1G, 10G, 40G and 100G circuits. Four QSFP28 ports handle high-bandwidth tenants; eight QSFP+ ports serve smaller sites. Full L2/L2.5 MPLS OAM, EVPN and Per-VLAN queueing with HQoS enforce strict SLAs per customer. Outcome: flexible multirate connectivity, optimized port density, and robust SLA enforcement. Optics sold separately.

Questions & Answers
What is the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B line card bundle?
The MPC7EQ-MRATE-B is a 12-port QSFP+/QSFP28 multirate line card bundle featuring full-scale L2/L2.5 functionality, reduced-scale L3 features, and four QSFP28-capable ports.
How many ports and what speeds does the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B support?
This line card provides twelve multirate ports that operate at 40 Gbps (QSFP+) or 100 Gbps (QSFP28 on four ports), enabling flexible bandwidth allocation.
Are optics included with the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B bundle?
No. The bundle price covers the line card and software features only; all required QSFP+/QSFP28 optics or DAC/AOC cables must be purchased separately.
What L2 and L2.5 features are supported on the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B?
The card includes full-scale Layer 2 and Layer 2.5 features such as VLAN tagging, QinQ, STP/RSTP/MSTP, LAG, and EVPN VXLAN support.
What reduced-scale L3 features are included with this line card?
It offers basic Layer 3 routing capabilities including static routes, RIP, OSPFv2/v3, BGP lite and VRF-Lite for segmented routing.
How many ports support full 100 Gbps QSFP28 connectivity?
Four of the twelve QSFP+/QSFP28 ports support full 100 Gbps speeds when paired with compatible QSFP28 optics or cables.
What is Per-VLAN queueing and does the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B support it?
Per-VLAN queueing allocates dedicated buffers to each VLAN for traffic isolation and fairness. This card provides full-scale Per-VLAN queueing.
What is Hierarchical QoS (HQoS) on this line card?
HQoS enables granular bandwidth management with parent-child queue hierarchies, traffic shaping, and policing across all ports and VLANs.
Can I upgrade to full Layer 3 routing on the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B?
Yes. You can purchase an optional full-scale L3 license to enable advanced routing protocols such as IS-IS, full BGP, and multicast.
Which chassis models are compatible with the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B?
The MPC7EQ-MRATE-B is compatible with supported modular chassis in the vendor’s MX-Series router portfolio; verify chassis model and software version for compatibility.
What transceivers and cables work with the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B?
Use any vendor-approved QSFP+ (40 GbE) or QSFP28 (100 GbE) optics, DAC or AOC cables listed in the compatibility matrix for optimal performance.
How do I install the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B in my router chassis?
Power down the chassis, slide the line card into an available slot until it clicks, secure the retention latches, then power up and verify via the CLI.
What power consumption should I expect from the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B?
Typical power draw is approximately 75 W under full load; consult the hardware guide for detailed thermal and power specifications.
Does the MPC7EQ-MRATE-B come with a warranty?
