In a regional ISP’s metro point of presence, the MX240BASE3-ACL-MX240 4 Slot Base 3 Chassis with Lowline AC Power aggregates multiple 10/40/100 GbE customer circuits to deliver high-bandwidth broadband and video services. Leveraging the chassis’ modular slots and AC-powered low-power design, operators achieve carrier-grade throughput with sub-millisecond latency and simplified capacity expansion. The outcome is increased subscriber density, reduced OPEX through low energy consumption, and seamless scalability for future bandwidth growth.
A global enterprise deploys the MX240BASE3-ACL-MX240 chassis at its campus core to interconnect on-premises data centers with multi-cloud environments over secure, high-performance links. The 4 Slot Base 3 modular platform supports advanced security policies, BGP/MPLS routing and SD-WAN orchestration while maintaining power-efficient operation with lowline AC power. Businesses benefit from deterministic application performance, simplified network segmentation, and a resilient foundation for hybrid-cloud workloads.
A Tier-1 mobile operator uses the MX240BASE3-ACL-MX240 4 Slot Base 3 Chassis with Lowline AC Power at cell-site aggregation nodes to backhaul 5G and IoT traffic over converged fiber links. The chassis’ flexible slot architecture and AC power footprint deliver deterministic Quality of Service (QoS), sub-50 µs jitter, and energy-efficient operation in space-constrained shelters. As a result, the operator secures SLA compliance for latency-sensitive services, lowers power costs, and accelerates deployment across thousands of small-cell sites.
