NSE-1 Description and Overview
Note The NSE-1 is not supported in the Cisco uBR7200 VXR series routers, even though it is physically
capable of being inserted into the routers.
Components
Figure 4-1 NSE-1
The NSE-1 consists of the following components:
Reduced instruction set computing (RISC) microprocessor
The NSE-1 uses an RM7000 microprocessor that operates at an internal clock speed of 262 MHz.
Parallel eXpress Forwarding processor
The Parallel eXpress Forwarding (PXF) processor enables parallel IP multipacket processing
functions, working with the routing processor to provide accelerated packet switching, as well as
accelerated IP Layer 3 feature processing.
