deployments such as segment routing and Ethernet VPN (EVPN). The ACX710 includes support for numerous features
such as modern network management using NETCONF and YANG, and precise synchronization that helps address the
increasing demands of high-speed networks.
The ACX710 router is a 1-U compact and fixed-configuration model with high-density 1GbE, 10GbE, and 100GbE ports.
ACX710 routers provide full-duplex throughput of 320 Gbps and 24 Gbit DRAM packet buffer.
We ship these routers with a DC power supply module that has dual power feeds and a fan tray with five high-performance
fans that can effectively cool the chassis.
