The SDN-ready MX5 Universal Edge Router is a flexible, full featured MX Series solution for managed services and enterprise applications. It is equipped with a user-configurable Modular Interface Card (MIC) slot for flexible network connectivity and an additional MIC slot in the rear to support a multiservice card for virtualized network services such as Carrier Grade NAT (CGNAT), stateful firewall, and IPSec.
With a software upgrade that increases port capacity and performance, the MX5 is upgradeable to an MX10, MX40, or MX80.
