BX520 Blade
===========

The BX520 blade is a next generation data plane/line card. It has 2 high speed (QSFP-DD) ports. The first port can be configured for either 100Gb or 4 x 100Gb (with the appropiate break out cable). The second port can be configured for either 4 x 100Gb(with the appropiate break out cable) or 400Gb. There are no direct console or out-of-band connections to the blade, as those functions are now proxied by the system controllers.
