Q
What are the maximum supported distances for Juniper ERX Series Compatible SFPs?
A
Distance varies by type: SX up to 550 m, LX up to 10 km, EX up to 40 km, and ZX up to 80 km over single-mode fiber.
Q
Which data rates do Juniper ERX Series SFPs support?
A
Juniper ERX Series SFP modules support 1 Gbps by default, with select CWDM/DWDM SFPs supporting up to 2.5 Gbps when configured appropriately.
Q
Are Juniper ERX Series Compatible SFPs hot-swappable?
A
Yes, Juniper ERX Series Compatible SFPs are fully hot-swappable, allowing you to replace or upgrade modules without powering down the router.
Q
How do I verify SFP compatibility on a Juniper ERX Series device?
A
Use the CLI command ‘show interfaces diagnostics optics’ to confirm the ORL vendor ID and ensure the SFP is recognized as Juniper ERX Series Compatible.
Q
What is the typical power consumption of Juniper ERX Series SFP modules?
A
Most Juniper ERX Series Compatible SFPs consume between 0.8 W and 1.0 W, depending on the optical wavelength and link distance.
Q
How do I configure an SFP port on a Juniper ERX Series router?
A
Enter configuration mode, assign the interface a logical unit, set the speed to 1g, and commit; the router auto-negotiates the optical module.
Q
What diagnostic tools are available for Juniper ERX Series SFPs?
A
Use built-in CLI commands like ‘show interfaces diagnostics optics’ and SNMP MIBs to monitor temperature, receive/transmit power, and bias current.
Q
Are there warranty or support options for Juniper ERX Series SFP modules?
A
Yes, Juniper ERX Series Compatible SFPs typically include a limited lifetime warranty and 24/7 technical support through Juniper’s support portal.
Q
How can I optimize fiber performance on Juniper ERX Series SFP ports?
A
