The Juniper PCG-M160-S is a PFE (Packet Forwarding Engine) clock generator board used inside Juniper M-series router chassis. It supplies the internal timing signal distributed across the router’s Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs) and switching fabric, and is a hot-pluggable field-replaceable unit rather than a customer-facing network interface card. On the M160 chassis specifically, two PCGs are installed for redundancy, each providing a 125-MHz system clock reference to the Flexible PIC Concentrators and switch fabric. Confirmed specifically for the M160 chassis. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Juniper control-plane and clock and timing boards for M-series and T-series routers. Get in touch with our team to confirm compatibility with your exact chassis and Junos release, or to source companion spares for the same platform.
