Return Procedures for the PTX10004 Chassis or Components

date_range 25-Feb-25

Return Procedure Overview

If you need to return a PTX10004 router or a PTX10004 component to Juniper Networks for repair or replacement, follow these steps:

  1. Determine the serial number of the component. For instructions, see Locate the Serial Number on a PTX10004 Router or Component.
  2. Obtain a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) number from the Juniper Technical Assistance Center (JTAC), as described in Contact Customer Support to Obtain a Return Materials Authorization for a PTX10004 Router or Component.
    Note:

    Do not return any component to Juniper Networks unless you have first obtained an RMA number. Juniper Networks reserves the right to refuse shipments that do not have an RMA. Refused shipments are returned to the customer through collect freight.

  3. Pack the router or component for shipping, as described in How to Pack PTX10004 Components for Shipping.

For more information about return and repair policies, see the customer support page at https://www.juniper.net/support/guidelines.html.

Locate the Serial Number on a PTX10004 Router or Component

If you want to return a router or component to Juniper Networks for repair or replacement, you must locate the serial number of the router or component. You must provide the serial number to the Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC) when you contact them to obtain an RMA. See Contact Customer Support to Obtain a Return Materials Authorization for a PTX10004 Router or Component.

If the router is operational and you can access the CLI, you can list serial numbers for the router and for some components with a CLI command. If you don’t have access to the CLI or if the serial number for the component doesn’t appear in the command output, you can locate the serial number ID label on the router or component.

Note:

If you want to find the serial number ID label on a component, you need to remove the component from the router chassis, for which you must have the required parts and tools available.

List the PTX10004 Chassis and Component Details Using the CLI

To list the PTX10004 chassis and the components and their serial numbers, use the show chassis hardware CLI operational mode command. See the following example and the related output.

How to Pack a PTX10004 Router or Component for Shipping

Follow this procedure if you want to return a PTX10004 chassis or router component to Juniper Networks for repair or replacement.

Before you pack a PTX10004 router or router component:

  • Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. See Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage.

  • Pack your chassis or component using one of these materials:

    • Use the packing material from the replacement chassis or component

    • Retrieve the original shipping carton and packing materials

Contact your JTAC representative if you do not have these materials, to learn about approved packing materials. See Contact Customer Support to Obtain a Return Materials Authorization for a PTX10004 Router or Component.

Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:

  • ESD grounding strap.

  • Electrostatic bag, one for each component.

  • If you want to returnthe chassis:

    • A 13/32-in. or 10-mm open-end or socket wrench to install the bracket bolts on the chassis and shipping pallet

    • An appropriate screwdriver for the mounting screws used on your rack

How to Pack a PTX10004 Chassis for Shipping

The PTX10004 is shipped in a cardboard box that has a two-layer wooden pallet base with foam cushioning between the layers. The router chassis is bolted to the pallet base with four pallet fasteners, two on each side of the chassis. See Figure 10 for the stacking configuration of the PTX10004.

Figure 10: Stacking Configuration for Packing the PTX10004 ChassisStacking Configuration for Packing the PTX10004 Chassis

To pack a PTX10004 for shipping:

  1. Power down the chassis and remove the power cables. See Power Off a PTX10004.
  2. Remove the cables that connect the PTX10004 to all external devices.
  3. Remove all line cards and pack them in their original shipping containers. See Remove a PTX10004 Line Card and How to Store a Line Card.
  4. Install covers over blank slots.

    Leave components that came installed in the chassis, such as the RCBs or power supplies.

  5. Move the wooden pallet and packing material to a staging area as close to the router as possible. Make sure that there is enough space to move the chassis from the rack to the wooden pallet.
  6. Position a mechanical lift under the device. If a mechanical lift is not available, have three people support the weight of the router while another person uses the screwdriver to remove the front mounting screws that attach the chassis mounting brackets to the rack. For PTX10004 removal, see Remove a PTX10004 from a Four-Post Rack Using a Mechanical Lift or Manually Remove a PTX10004 from a Four-Post Rack.
  7. Remove the router from the rack (see Chassis and Component Lifting Guidelines) and place the router on the shipping pallet. Position the router on the pallet so that the front of the router is facing the silkscreened “front” mark on the pallet. The pallet also has crop marks to guide you in positioning the chassis.
  8. Use the 13/32-in. or 10-mm open-end or socket wrench to install the four sets of brackets and bolts that secure the chassis to the wooden pallet.
  9. Slide the plastic cover over the router chassis. The plastic cover is part of the router’s original packing materials.
  10. Place the packing foam on top of and around the router.
  11. Place the power cords in the box.
  12. Remove the rack mount kit from the rack and place the kit and the connecting screws in the accessory box.
