Every WhaleyComm unit is professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and certified by our in-house engineers — the same standard trusted by 5,000+ organisations across 25 years. Not a refurb marketplace. A certified lifecycle partner.
Professionally tested to factory specification. Backed by 25 years of enterprise trust.
This refurbished Juniper MIC6-100G-CFP2 is a 100-Gigabit Ethernet Modular Interface Card (MIC) featuring two CFP2 ports, each delivering line-rate throughput of 100 Gbps. Professionally tested and reset to factory defaults, this unit supports both LAN (103.125 Gbps) and OTN/OTU4 (111.81 Gbps) operation per port, with IEEE 1588 time-stamping and transparent transport of 100-Gigabit Ethernet signals with OTU4 framing. It is designed exclusively for use with the MPC6 on Juniper MX Series routers and is a proven solution for high-density 100GbE deployments in carrier and enterprise environments.
The MIC6-100G-CFP2 is powered by CFP2 pluggable optics, enabling operational flexibility and simplified maintenance. With support for jumbo frames up to 9192 bytes MTU and front-to-back airflow, the card is engineered for sustained high-performance operation in demanding data center and service provider chassis environments. Its OTN capability allows seamless transport of 100GE signals over optical transport networks, making it equally suitable for metro and long-haul deployments.
Purchasing refurbished from WhaleyComm delivers the same enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of new list price. With 25+ years serving 5,000+ enterprise customers and ISO 9001, R2v3, e-Stewards, and UNEDA certifications, WhaleyComm stands behind every unit with a Lifetime Warranty — no time limits, no questions asked.

Ideal Use Cases
Service Provider Core and Edge Routing
The MIC6-100G-CFP2 delivers line-rate 100GbE on MX Series routers, making it ideal for service providers building high-capacity core or edge routing infrastructure requiring OTN transport and precise IEEE 1588 timing.
High-Density Data Center Interconnect
With two 100G CFP2 ports and support for jumbo frames up to 9192 bytes, this card is well-suited for data center interconnect scenarios demanding sustained, low-latency throughput at scale.
Optical Transport Network Integration
Support for OTN/OTU4 framing at 111.81 Gbps enables seamless integration into existing optical transport network architectures, bridging Ethernet and OTN domains without additional conversion hardware.
Network Capacity Expansion on Existing MX Chassis
Organizations with deployed MX2010, MX2020, MX240, MX480, or MX960 routers can use the MIC6-100G-CFP2 to cost-effectively expand 100GbE port density within their existing chassis and MPC6 investment.
Timing-Sensitive Applications
IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping at the physical interface makes this card suitable for financial services, mobile backhaul, and other latency- and timing-sensitive network applications.
