Optional uplink modules for EX4300 switches support SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+
transceivers. This topic describes the optical interfaces supported for those transceivers.
It also lists the copper interfaces supported for the SFP transceivers.
NOTE:
We recommend that you use only optical transceivers and optical
connectors purchased from Juniper Networks with your Juniper Networks
device.
CAUTION:
If you are having a problem running a Juniper Networks device
that is using a third-party optic or cable, the Juniper Networks Technical
Assistance Center (JTAC) can help you diagnose the source of the problem.
Your JTAC engineer might recommend that you check the third-party optic
or cable and potentially replace it with an equivalent Juniper Networks optic
or cable that is qualified for the device.
The Gigabit Ethernet SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+ transceivers installed in EX4300 switches
support digital optical monitoring (DOM): You can view the diagnostic details for these
transceivers by issuing the operational mode CLI command
.
