Which MLX parts do I need?

Start with your chassis size and management module. Interface modules come in versions with different route and table scale, shown by the -M, -X and -X2 suffixes, so match the suffix to what your system needs and to the modules already installed. Check that your NetIron software release supports each module. Fan assemblies are specific to each chassis size. Give us your chassis, management module and module part numbers and we will confirm a part before you order.

Frequently asked questions

What do -M, -X and -X2 mean on MLX modules?
They mark the module's forwarding table scale, with X and X2 versions supporting larger tables than M versions. Choose the version that matches the routes and features your network uses.
