About This Part
The Nokia FPAC (Forwarding Processor and Access Card), part number 472438A.101, is a critical component within Nokia's high-capacity IP routing platforms, such as the 7750 Service Router (SR) series. Engineered for demanding telecommunications and data centre networks, its primary function is high-speed packet forwarding, traffic management, and quality of service (QoS) enforcement. It ensures efficient and reliable data transport, acting as the data plane's brain to process millions of packets per second and maintain network performance. While specific technical specifications for the 472438A.101 are not detailed, Nokia FPAC modules are known for robust processing capabilities, multi-gigabit throughput, and support for advanced routing protocols. They often integrate hardware accelerators for deep packet inspection, encryption, and complex policy enforcement. Designed for hot-swappable deployment, these cards enhance system resilience and minimize downtime, supporting scalability for growing traffic demands. Revo Distribution Limited offers used and refurbished Nokia FPAC modules, including the 472438A.101, to provide cost-effective solutions for telecom operators and data centre clients. We enable businesses to expand, maintain, or upgrade existing Nokia infrastructure, extending equipment lifecycles and reducing capital expenditure. Our rigorous testing ensures reliability, making these components a smart, sustainable investment for critical network environments.
