Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Product Overview
The Cisco® MGX® 8000 Series Multiservice Switches are a scalable family of multiservice switches, scaling from 1.2 Gbps to 180 Gbps redundant switching capacity and from DS0 to OC-192/STM-64 interface capacity. This scalability provides exceptional savings and efficiency for network operations and services growth. The Cisco MGX 8000 family includes the Cisco MGX 8850, MGX 8850/B, MGX 8830/B and MGX 8950 Multiservice Switches.
The Cisco MGX-XM60 Switching Module is the switch fabric that powers the Cisco MGX 8950 Advanced ATM Multiservice Switch. The Cisco MGX-XM60 provides 60 Gbps of full-duplex nonblocking switching capacity. Each Cisco MGX 8950 can be configured with up to four Cisco XM-60s to provide 240 Gbps of switching capacity for the system.
The Cisco MGX-XM60 Switching Module meets service providers' demand for carrier-class availability by offering hot-standby, load-sharing redundancy. (Refer to Figure 1.)

Technical Specifications
The Cisco MGX-XM60 Switching Module has the following primary features:
• Single-height card
• 60-Gbps nonblocking crosspoint switch fabric
• Dynamic sharing of capacity across multiple Cisco XM-60s, allowing for N + 1 redundancy
• Four installed in each Cisco MGX 8950 for 240-Gbps total capacity, 180-Gbps redundant capacity
• Hot card insertion/removal
• Complete separation from control processor, allowing data forwarding in the event of control card failure
