Gigabit Ethernet XPIM

16-port 10/100/1000BASE-T with PoE

A Gigabit-Backplane Physical Interface Module (GPIM) is a network interface card (NIC) that installs in the front slots of the SRX550 or SRX650 Services Gateway to provide physical connections to a LAN or a WAN. The GPIM receives incoming packets from a network and transmits outgoing packets to a network. These modules complement the onboard Ethernet interfaces to extend the types and port counts of network connections for the LAN or WAN.


Interface module terminology:

GPIM — Network interface card (NIC) that installs in a single-high, single-wide GPIM front slots of the SRX550 Services Gateway and the SRX650 Services Gateway that have Gigabit connectivity to the system backplane.

XPIM — Can be installed in:

• SRX550 Services Gateway—only in the 10-Gigabit GPIM slot 3 or in the 20-Gigabit GPIM slot 6 on the front panel

• SRX650 Services Gateway—only in the 20-Gigabit GPIM slots (slots 2 and 6 on the front panel)


The GPIMs can have one of the following configurations:

Single-high, single-wide LAN switch GPIM that uses one slot

Double-high, single-wide LAN switch GPIM that uses two standard slots vertically

Double-high, double-wide LAN switch GPIM that uses two standard slots vertically and two standard slots horizontally
