Determining QFX5200 Optical Interface Support
You can find information about the optical transceivers supported on your Juniper device by using the
Hardware Compatibility Tool. In addition to transceiver and connection type, the optical and cable
characteristics–where applicable–are documented for each transceiver. The Hardware Compatibility
Tool enables you to search by product, displaying all the transceivers supported on that device, or
category, by interface speed or type. The list of supported transceivers for the QFX5200-32C and
QFX5200-32C-L is located at
apps.juniper.net/hct/product/#prd=QFX5200-48Y
CAUTION: If you face a problem running a Juniper Networks device that uses 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.
NOTE: For interoperability with other QFX Series switches, ensure auto-negotiation on the
QFX5200 is disabled.
