The fiber-optic array cables connect the switching planes of the the TX Matrix Plus router.
The TXP-F13 SIBs connect to the TXP-T1600 SIBs. Cable lengths from 3 m to 100 m are
supported to accommodate both centralized and distributed TX Matrix configurations.
The fiber-optic array connector is shown in Figure 45 on page 110.
You can order cable lengths of 4 m, 6 m, 8 m, 10 m, 12 m, 15 m, 20 m, 25 m, 30 m, 35 m,
40 m, 45 m, 50 m, 55 m, 60 m, 65 m, 70 m, 75 m, 80 m, 85 m, 90 m, 95 m, and 100 m
from Juniper Networks.
NOTE: You must use the same length for every fiber-optic array cable from
a particular T1600 router to the TX Matrix Plus router. However, you do not
need to use the same length for all fiber-optic array cables within a routing
matrix.
The UTP Category 5 cables, which use "straight through" wiring and RJ-45 connectors
on each end, are used for controlling the T1600 routers and for management of the
routing matrix. Controlling the T1600 routers requires connections from the two TXP-CIPs
in the TX Matrix Plus router to the LCC-CBs in the T1600 routers. Managing the routing
matrix requires connections from the TXP-CIPs to external management devices.
These cables can be up to 100 m long.
For configuration and management of the routing matrix, RS-232 (EIA-232) serial cables
with RJ-45 connectors connect to the
