The Cisco Ethernet Services Plus Transport Extended Combination 20G Line Card, part number 76-ES+XC-20G3CXL, offers advanced network functionality and is designed specifically for Carrier Ethernet requirements. This line card provides 10 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), delivering high-speed connectivity for a wide range of applications. It fits seamlessly into modular environments as a plug-in module and is directly compatible with Cisco routers designed to support high-performance Ethernet services.
One of the key features of this line card is the included Cisco Distributed Forwarding Card (DFC-3CXL), which enhances performance and scalability. With the DFC-3CXL, the module offloads processing tasks to distribute forwarding more efficiently across network modules, effectively improving both bandwidth management and network agility. Furthermore, the DFC-3CXL enables local processing of packets, minimising the need for data to be routed to a centralised processor, which helps to ease network congestion, especially in high-traffic environments.
The Cisco 76-ES+XC-20G3CXL is a managed line card, meaning it offers advanced control over network functions, including detailed monitoring, traffic routing, and QoS (Quality of Service) features. Its design is focused on scalability, making it ideal for service providers and enterprise-level networks that require reliable, high-speed switching with carrier-grade features. Additionally, it supports a robust range of Ethernet transport services, helping deliver secure, high-performance connections for demanding technologies such as cloud computing, video streaming, and data centre environments.
