ASR 5000 Hardware Platform Overview

Ethernet 1000 (Gigabit Ethernet) Line Cards

The Ethernet 1000 line card is commonly referred to as the GigE or Gigabit Ethernet Line Card (GELC). The Ethernet
1000 line card is installed directly behind its respective packet processing card, providing network connectivity to the
packet data network. The type of interfaces for the Ethernet 1000 line cards is dictated by the Small Form-factor
Pluggable (SFP) module installed as described below:

radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no cable is connected. Avoid exposure to laser radiation
and do not stare into open apertures. BE SURE TO KEEP COVER ON INTERFACE WHEN NOT IN USE.
Important:
The Ethernet 1000 Line Cards can be installed in chassis slots 17 through 23, 26 through 39, and 42 through 48. These
cards are always installed directly behind their respective or packet processing cards, but they are not required behind
any redundant packet processing cards (those operating in Standby mode).
