8-Port Sfp+ Line Card In An Ex8200 Switch - Juniper EX8208 Hardware Manual

NOTE: We recommend that you do not install extra-scale line card models and non-extra-scale
models in the same switch or Virtual Chassis. If you install extra-scale line cards in a switch or
Virtual Chassis that has non-extra-scale models installed, the IPv4 and IPv6 route table sizes
default to those of the non-extra-scale models and you will not get the benefit of the increased
table sizes of the extra-scale models.
You will experience these decreased route table sizes in a Virtual Chassis even when the
non-extra-scale line cards are installed in one member switch and the extra-scale line cards are
installed in another member switch.

The line cards in EX8200 switches combine a Packet Forwarding Engine and Ethernet interfaces on a single
assembly. They are field-replaceable units (FRUs) that can be installed in the line card slots on the front
of the switch chassis. The line cards are hot-insertable and hot-removable: You can remove and replace
them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions (see
