The QFX5220-128C offers 128 ports of 100-Gigabit Ethernet in a 4 U form factor. With 12.8 Tbps bandwidth, the QFX5220-128C is optimally designed as data aggregation or top of rack switch in small to medium size data centers and MSDC (Massively Scalable Data Center) deployments. The 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports can be configured either for 100-Gbps or 40-Gbps speeds.
Register product serial numbers on the Juniper Networks website and update the installation base data if there is any addition or change to the installation base or if the installation base is moved. Juniper Networks will not be held accountable for not meeting the hardware replacement service-level agreement for products that do not have registered serial numbers or accurate installation base data.
You can mount QFX5220 switches on a four-post 19-in. rack or cabinet using the rack mount kit provided with the switch. To mount the QFX5220-128C on a four post rack using the provided rack mount kit: 1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.

NOTE: There is a left mounting rail, stamped LEFT, and a right mounting rail, stamped RIGHT. The mounting rails are not interchangable. Figure 2: Attaching Mounting Rails to the QFX5220-128C Chassis Right mounting rail Left mounting rail 7. Use the Phillips number 2 screwdriver to attach the front of the mounting rail to the flange and chassis using three M4 x 8 mm flathead screws.
14. We recommend that you insert dust covers in any unused ports. Part 2: Ground the Chassis and Connect Power To connect earth ground to a QFX5220-128C: 1. Use two 10-32 x 0.25 screws with #10 split-lock washers (not provided) to secure the grounding lug and attached cable (not provided) to the FRU panel of the chassis.
Connect Power to the Switch The QFX5220-128C is shipped from the factory with four power supplies. Each power supply is a hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable unit (FRU) when the second power supply is installed and running. You can install a replacement power supply in either of the two slots next to the fan modules without powering off the switch or disrupting the switching function.

c. Insert the power cord coupler firmly into the AC inlet on the power supply faceplate. d. Slide the power cord retainer loop towards the power supply until it is snug against the base of the coupler. e. Press the tab on the loop and draw out the loop to enclose the power cord. See Figure Figure 6: Attaching the Power Cord Retainer WARNING:...
Perform the Initial Configuration Connect the QFX5220-128C to your network for out-of-band management: 1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the management port (labeled Mgmt) on the QFX5220-128C. 2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the management device.

NOTE: On the QFX5220-128C, the management port re0:mgmt-0 is the bottom RJ-45 port on the right side of the port panel and is labeled MGMT. 8. Create the mgmt_junos routing instance.
The QFX5220-128C weighs approximately 76 lbs (34.5 kg.) We recommend using a mechanical lift for installations above 60 inches (152.4 cm). Manually installing the QFX5220-128C in a rack or cabinet at a height above 60 in. (152.4 cm) requires two people to lift the switch and a third person to install the mounting screws. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.
