Questions & Answers
What is the S-LC1101H-SCA PTX10K LC1101 1.5Tbps scale upgrade?
The S-LC1101H-SCA is a one-level scale upgrade license for PTX10K LC1101 linecards that increases forwarding capacity from 0.75 Tbps to 1.5 Tbps per slot.
Which devices are compatible with the S-LC1101H-SCA upgrade?
The S-LC1101H-SCA upgrade is compatible with Juniper PTX10K series routers equipped with LC1101 0.75 Tbps linecards.
How do I install the S-LC1101H-SCA upgrade?
Install the license key via Junos CLI using the request system license install command and reboot the PTX10K router to activate the 1.5 Tbps capacity.
Does the S-LC1101H-SCA require hardware changes?
No hardware changes are needed; the upgrade activates existing ASIC and port capacity through a software license.
What are the performance benefits of upgrading to 1.5 Tbps?
Upgrading to 1.5 Tbps doubles per-slot throughput, improves packet processing, and supports higher port densities with line-rate performance.
Can I mix upgraded and non-upgraded linecards in the same chassis?
Yes; PTX10K supports mixed deployments, but overall throughput is governed by individual linecard license levels.
How is the S-LC1101H-SCA license delivered?
The license is delivered as an electronic activation key tied to your Juniper customer registration and the chassis serial number.
Is a support contract required for the S-LC1101H-SCA upgrade?
You must maintain a valid Juniper Care contract to receive software updates and technical support for the upgraded capacity.
What use cases benefit most from 1.5 Tbps LC1101?
High-density peering, large-scale data center interconnects, and service provider core networks gain the greatest benefit from 1.5 Tbps capacities.
How does licensing work for multiple linecards?
Each LC1101 linecard requires its own S-LC1101H-SCA license; licenses cannot be shared across linecards or chassis.
Can I downgrade back to 0.75 Tbps after activation?
No; downgrading requires removal of the 1.5 Tbps license and a system reboot, which is not supported once the higher capacity is used in production.
What is the lead time for S-LC1101H-SCA orders?
Standard lead time is 2–3 weeks from order confirmation, subject to regional stock availability.
How does the upgrade impact power consumption?
Power consumption remains unchanged since the physical linecard hardware is identical; only the forwarding capacity is licensed.
Are there any prerequisites before applying the S-LC1101H-SCA license?
Ensure your PTX10K is running a supported Junos OS version and that the LC1101 linecard is installed and operational.
How do I verify the upgrade after reboot?
Run show chassis fpc detail in the Junos CLI and confirm that the LC1101 linecard reports 1.5 Tbps capacity under the “Max Bandwidth” field.
What key benefits does the S-LC1101H-SCA offer?
It delivers a cost-effective path to double throughput, extend hardware lifespan, and optimize network performance without downtime or hardware swaps.
