Quidway® NetEngine 40 Series Universal
Switching Router Line Processing Units
Overview
The Quidway® NetEngine 40 universal switching router (USR) series (abbreviated as NE 40) is
based on distributed hardware forwarding structure. In addition to route switching unit (SRU), it
provides multiple types of line processing units (LPU).
UR-LPUF
The LPU is composed of LPU module and physical interface card (PIC). It aims at fast
processing and forwarding of services and maintenance of link protocols and service
forwarding tables.
Functions of modules are described as follows:
I. LPU
z Encapsulate and process protocols used at the link layer (such as Ethernet II
and PPP).
z Classify and filter data packets to monitor user flow and access control list.
z Manage and schedule data buffering.
z Forward data according to the forwarding table.
z Identify and send packets over control protocols to the primary CPU for
processing through non-line rate interface.
II. PIC
The PIC deals with the physical part of functions of a service interface, including
O/E conversion and processing at the physical layer. For details, refer to an
introduction of each interface board.

Type of LPUs
The NE40 supports 2 types of LPUs, LPUE and LPUF. LPUE does not support hot swapping
because its sub-card is fixed on it. Differently, LPUF is separated from its sub-cards (the
flexible card series), so it can be configured with one or two PIM cards that is swappable.
LPUE supported by the NE40 include:
z 10/100M adaptive Ethernet electrical interface LPU (LAN)
z 10/100M adaptive Ethernet electrical interface LPU (WAN)
z 100M Ethernet optical interface LPU (LAN)
z 100M Ethernet optical interface LPU (WAN)
z GE optical interface LPU (LAN)
z GE optical interface LPU (WAN)
z OC-3c/STM-1 POS LPU
z OC-12c/STM-4c POS LPU
z OC-48c/STM-16c POS LPU
z OC-3/STM-1 CPOS LPU
z OC-48/STM-16 CPOS LPU
z OC-48/STM-16 RPR LPU
z OC-3/STM-1 ATM LPU
z OC-12/STM-4 ATM LPU
z CE1 electrical interface LPU
z E1 electrical interface LPU
Swappable sub-cards of LPUF supported by the NE40 include:
z 10/100M adaptive Ethernet electrical interface PIM (LAN)
z 10/100M adaptive Ethernet electrical interface PIM (WAN)
z 100M Ethernet optical interface PIM (LAN)
z 100M Ethernet optical interface PIM (WAN)
z GE optical interface PIM (LAN)
z GE optical interface PIM (WAN)
z CE1 electrical interface PIM
z E1 electrical interface PIM
z E3/T3 electrical interface PIM
z OC-3c/STM-1 POS PIM
z OC-12c/STM-4c POS PIM
z OC-3/STM-1 ATM PIM
z OC-12/STM-4 ATM PIM
