Software release

  • 4-port: Junos OS Release 11.2 and later

  • 8-port: Junos OS Release 11.2 and later

For information on which MPCs support these MICs, see MIC/MPC Compatibility. For information on which MICs are supported on MX Series routers, see MICs Supported by MX Series Routers.

Description

  • 4-port: 4 OC3/STM1 or OC12/STM4 ports

    The ports can be configured to support a combination of OC3, OC12, and OC48 rates. In the combination, you can configure only one port (port 0) to support OC48, whereas OC3 or OC12 can be configured on all four ports.

  • 8-port: 8 OC3/STM1 or OC12/STM4 ports

    The ports can be configured to support a combination of OC3, OC12, and OC48 rates. In the combination (when the device is in the multi-rate mode), you can configure only two ports (port 0 and port 1) to support OC48, whereas you can configure all eight ports to support OC3 or OC12. If the multi-rate mode is disabled, you can configure four ports (port 0, port 1, port 2, and port 3) to support OC48. To disable the multi-rate mode, use the CLI statement set chassis fpc slot pic slot no-multi-rate.

Cables and connectors

Tip:

You can use the Hardware Compatibility Tool to find information about the pluggable transceivers supported on your Juniper Networks device.

The list of supported transceivers for the MX Series is located at https://pathfinder.juniper.net/hct/category/#catKey=100001&modelType;=All&pf;=MX+Series.

LEDs

OK/FAIL LED, one bicolor:

  • Green—MIC is functioning normally

  • Red—MIC has failed

LINK LED, one green per port:

  • Off—Not enabled

  • Green—Online with no alarms or failures

  • Yellow—Online with alarms for remote failures

  • Red—Active with a local alarm; router has detected a failure
