Hardware Overview Introduction
Figure 2-20 Front panel of MPLS GBIC line card with one GBIC installed
GBIC modules provide the media-specific portion of the MPLS GBIC line-card (see Figure 2-21), which support
Gigabit Ethernet connectivity across multiple media types and distances. The GBIC line card provides the power,
initialization, and control for each GBIC module. Any combination of GBICs can be used on a single MPLS GBIC
line card.
