MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router Overview

The Juniper Networks MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 3D Universal Edge Routers are
Ethernet-optimized edge routers that provide both switching and carrier-class Ethernet
routing. The MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 routers run Junos operating system (Junos
OS), enabling a wide range of business and residential applications and services, including
high-speed transport and virtual private network (VPN) services, next-generation
broadband multiplay services, and high-volume Internet data center internetworking.
Each router provides full duplex, high-density Ethernet interfaces and high- capacity
switching throughput and uses the Junos Trio chipset for increased scalability of L2/L3
packet forwarding, buffering, and queuing.
The routers each contain a built-in Routing Engine and one Packet Forwarding Engine.
The Packet Forwarding Engine has two pseudo Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPC 0 and
FPC1). Because there is no switching fabric, the single Packet Forwarding Engine takes
care of both ingress and egress packet forwarding.
The routers are compact and two rack units (U) tall. Several routers can be stacked in a
single floor-to-ceiling rack for increased port density per unit of floor space.
The MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 routers are available as a modular chassis with two
dedicated slots for Modular Interface Cards (MICs), which provide scalable configuration
options. Software licenses allow you to upgrade from one router to another without a
hardware upgrade. The ports are restricted based on the routers associated license as
follows:
MX5 router: Allows usage of the MIC slot labeled 1/MIC 0, which comes prepopulated
with the Gigabit Ethernet MIC with SFP.

acceptable temperature range (see Figure 12 on page 15 and Figure 13 on page 15). The
router has one fan tray and one air filter that install vertically in the front of the router.
The fan tray contains five fans.
The air intake to cool the chassis is located on the right side of the chassis next to the air
filter. Air is pulled through the air filter toward the fan tray, where it is exhausted out the
left side of the system. The power supplies are self-cooling and are located in the front
of the router to the left of the front panel. The exhaust for the power supplies is located
on the left side of the chassis.

The chassis monitors the temperature of the router components. When the router is
operating normally, the fans function at lower than full speed. If a fan fails or the ambient
temperature rises above a threshold, the speed of the remaining fans is automatically
adjusted to keep the temperature within the acceptable range. If the ambient maximum
temperature specification is exceeded and the system cannot be adequately cooled, the
Routing Engine shuts down the system by disabling output power from each power
supply.

MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Modular Interface Card Description

Modular Interface Cards (MICs) provide the physical connections to various network
media types. MICs receive incoming packets from the network and transmit outgoing
packets to the network. During this process, each MIC performs framing and high-speed
signaling for its media type. Before transmitting outgoing data packets through the MIC
interfaces, the router encapsulates the packets received.
On the fixed MX80 chassis, the MICs come preinstalled and cannot be replaced.
On the modular MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 chassis, MICs install into two slots in the
front of the router.
The Services PIC slot located in the rear of the chassis is currently not supported.

MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Power System Overview
MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Power Supply LED on page 28
MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Power System Description

The MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 routers use either AC or DC power supplies (see
Figure 20 on page 26 and Figure 21 on page 27). The router contains either one or two
power supplies located at the front of the chassis in slots PS0 and PS1 (right to left).
Each power supply has a handle, an ejection lever, a power switch, and a status LED. The
power supplies connect to the baseboard, which distributes the different output voltages
produced by the power supplies to the router components, depending on their voltage
requirements. When two power supplies are present, they share power almost equally
within a fully populated system. If one power supply in a redundant configuration fails
or is removed, the remaining power supply assumes the entire electrical load without
interruption. A single power supply provides the maximum configuration with full power
for as long as the router is operational. A second power supply can be installed for
redundancy. Each power supply is cooled by its own internal cooling system.
Redundant power supplies are hot-removable and hot-insertable. When you remove a
power supply from a router that uses only one power supply, the router might shut down
depending on your configuration.
CAUTION: The router cannot be powered from AC and DC power supplies

simultaneously.
NOTE: Routers configured with only one power supply are shipped with a
blank panel installed over the power supply slot that is not populated.

Table 17: MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Rack Requirements and Specifications
Rack Requirement
Guidelines
Rack type and mounting bracket hole

spacing
Use a four-post rack or a two-post rack. You can mount the router on any four-post
or two-post rack that provides bracket holes or hole patterns spaced at 1 U
(1.75-in./4.44-cm) increments and that meets the size and strength requirements
specified in this table.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated
Equipment (document number EIA-310D) published by the Electronics Industry
Association (http://www.eia.org).
Rack size and strength
Rack connection to the building

structure
Ensure that the rack is a 19-in. rack as defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and
Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310D) published by the Electronics
Industry Association (http://www.eia.org).
Ensure that the rack is one of the following standard lengths:
23.62 in. (600 mm)
30.0 in. (762 mm)
31.5 in. (800 mm)
The rack rails must be spaced widely enough to accommodate the router chassis's
external dimensions: 3.5 in. (8.9 cm) high, 21.75 in. (55.2 cm) deep, and
17.4 in. (44.2 cm) wide. The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width
to 19.2 in. (48.7 cm). The spacing of rails and adjacent racks must also allow for the
clearances around the router and rack that are specified in MX5, MX10, MX40, and
MX80 Routers Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance
on page 36.
The router ships with the mounting brackets installed in the front-mount position.
You can also move the brackets to the center-mount position. For instructions about
moving the mounting hardware, see Moving the Mounting Brackets for
Center-Mounting MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers on page 45.
The chassis height of 3.5 in. (8.9 cm) is approximately 2 U.
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully configured router,
up to 30 lb (13.6 kg).
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper clearance
around the router and rack as specified in MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers
Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance on page 36.
Secure the rack to the building structure.
If earthquakes are a possibility in your geographic area, secure the rack to the floor.
Secure the rack to the ceiling brackets as well as wall or floor brackets for maximum
stability.

For the cooling system to function properly, the airflow around the chassis must be
unrestricted. Allow at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) of clearance between side-cooled routers.
Allow 2.8 in. (7 cm) between the side of the chassis and any non-heat-producing
surface such as a wall.
For service personnel to remove and install hardware components, there must be
adequate space at the front and back of the router. At least 24 in. (61 cm) are required
both in front of and behind the router. NEBS GR-63 recommends that you allow at
least 30 in. (72.6 cm) in front of the rack and 24 in. (61.0 cm) behind the router.

MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers Cabinet Requirements and Specifications
Table 18 on page 37 summarizes cabinet requirements and specifications for MX5, MX10,
MX40, and MX80 routers.
Table 18: Cabinet Requirements and Specifications for an MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router
Cabinet Requirement
Guidelines for the MX80 Router
Cabinet size and clearance
The minimum-sized cabinet that can accommodate the router is 19-in. (482-mm)
wide and 23.62-in. (600-mm) deep. A cabinet larger than the minimum requirement
provides better airflow and reduces the chance of overheating. If you provide adequate
cooling air and airflow clearance, you can stack several routers in a cabinet that has
sufficient usable vertical space. Each router requires 2 U.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated
Equipment (document number EIA-310D) published by the Electronics Industry
Association (http://www.eia.org).
With adequate cooling air and airflow clearance, you can stack multiple MX5, MX10,
MX40, and MX80 routers in a cabinet with a four-post rack. In all cases, the rack must
meet the strength requirements to support the weight.
The minimum total clearance inside the cabinet is 30.7 in. (780 mm) between the
inside of the front door and the inside of the rear door.
37
Table 18: Cabinet Requirements and Specifications for an MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80
Router (continued)
Cabinet Requirement
Guidelines for the MX80 Router
Cabinet airflow requirements
When you install the router in a cabinet, you must ensure that ventilation through the
cabinet is sufficient to prevent overheating. Consider the following requirements to
when planning for chassis cooling:
Airflow must always be from front to back with respect to the rack. If the device has
side to rear airflow, then provisions must be made to ensure that fresh air from the
front of the rack is supplied to the inlets, and exhaust exits the rear of the rack. The
device must not interfere with the cooling of other systems in the rack. Fillers must
be used as appropriate in the rack to ensure there is no recirculation of heated exhaust
air back to the front of the rack. Care must also be taken around cables to ensure no
leakage of air in situations where recirculation may result.
Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit from the cabinet
without recirculating into the router. An open cabinet (without a top or doors) that
employs hot air exhaust extraction from the top allows the best airflow through the
chassis. If the cabinet contains a top or doors, perforations in these elements assist
with removing the hot air exhaust. For an illustration of chassis airflow, see
Figure 26 on page 38.
Ensure that the cool air supply you provide through the cabinet can adequately
dissipate the thermal output of the router.
Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of airflow to and from the chassis.
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper clearance
around the router and rack as specified in MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers
Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance on page 36.
Install the router as close as possible to the front of the cabinet so that the chassis
just clears the inside of the front door. This maximizes the clearance in the rear of the
cabinet for critical airflow.

Installing MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Chassis in the Rack

To install the router in the rack (see Figure 29 on page 49 and Figure 30 on page 49):
CAUTION: If you are installing more than one router in a rack, install the
lowest one first. Installing a router in an upper position in a rack or cabinet
requires a lift.
CAUTION: Before front mounting the router in a rack, have a qualified

technician verify that the rack is strong enough to support the router's weight
and is adequately supported at the installation site.
CAUTION: Lifting the chassis and mounting it in a rack requires two people
(one person to hold the router in place and a second person to install the
screws). The chassis weighs approximately 30 lb (13.6 kg).
1.
Ensure that the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure
that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance.
2. Position the router in front of the rack or cabinet.

3. Hold onto the bottom of the chassis and carefully lift it so that the mounting brackets
contact the rack rails.
WARNING: To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your
legs, not your back. Avoid twisting your body as you lift. Balance the load
evenly and be sure that your footing is solid.
4. Align the mounting brackets with the holes in the rack rails.
5. Install a mounting screw into each of the open mounting holes aligned with the rack,
starting from the bottom.

6. Visually inspect the alignment of the router. If the router is installed properly in the
rack, all the mounting screws on one side of the rack should be aligned with the
mounting screws on the opposite side, and the router should be level.

Connecting Interface Cables to MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers

To connect the physical interfaces to the network (see Figure 36 on page 54):
1.
Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the component. For MIC cable
specifications, see the MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers Interface Module Reference.
2. Remove the rubber safety plug from the cable connector port.
WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the

ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when

inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and
prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
3. Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the faceplate.
NOTE: The XFP cages and optics on the components are industry standard
parts that have limited tactile feedback for insertion of optics and fiber.
You need to insert the optics and fiber firmly until the latch is securely in
place.
4. Arrange the cable to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure
the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place
excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop.
53
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend

radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at
the fastening point.

Powering On an AC-Powered MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router

To power on an AC-powered router:
1.
Verify that the power supplies are fully inserted in the chassis.
2. Verify that each AC power cord is securely inserted into its appliance inlet.
3. Verify that an external management device is connected to one of the Routing Engine
ports (AUX, CONSOLE, or ETHERNET).

4. Turn on the power to the external management device.
5. Switch on the dedicated customer site circuit breakers for the power supplies. Follow
the instructions for your site.


7. Switch the AC input switch on each power supply to the on ( | ) position, and observe
the status LED on each power supply faceplate. If an AC power supply is correctly
installed and functioning normally, the status LED above each AC input switch lights
steadily green.
If the status LED on the power supply is lit red, the power supply is not functioning
normally. Repeat the installation and cabling procedures.
NOTE: After powering off a power supply, wait at least 60 seconds before
turning it back on. After powering on a power supply, wait at least 60
seconds before turning it off.
If the system is completely powered off when you power on the power
supply, the Routing Engine boots as the power supply completes its startup
sequence. If the Routing Engine finishes booting and you need to power
off the system again, first issue the CLI request system halt command.
After a power supply is powered on, it can take up to 60 seconds for status
indicatorssuch as the status LEDs on the power supply and the
show chassis command displayto indicate that the power supply is
functioning normally. Ignore error indicators that appear during the first
60 seconds.
8. On the external management device connected to the Routing Engine, monitor the

Connecting Power to a DC-Powered MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router
CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies within the same router.
Damage to the router might occur.
WARNING: Before performing DC power procedures, ensure that power is

removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit
breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit
breaker to the off position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker
in the off position.
You connect DC power to the router by attaching power cables from the external DC
power sources to the terminal on the power supply faceplate. You must provide the
power cables (the cable lugs are supplied with the router). For power cable specifications,
see DC Power Cable Specifications for MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers on page 164.
To connect the DC source power cables to the router for each power supply:
1.
Switch off the dedicated customer site circuit breakers. Ensure that the voltage across
the DC power source cable leads is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cable
leads might become active during installation.

3. Switch the DC circuit breaker on the power supply faceplate to the off (O) position.
4. Remove the clear plastic cover protecting the terminal on the faceplate.
5. Verify that the DC power cables are correctly labeled before making connections to
the power supply. In a typical power distribution scheme where the return is connected
to chassis ground at the battery plant, you can use a multimeter to verify the resistance
of the 48V and RTN DC cables to chassis ground:
The cable with very large resistance (indicating an open circuit) to chassis ground
is 48V.
The cable with very low resistance (indicating a closed circuit) to chassis ground is
RTN.
CAUTION: You must ensure that power connections maintain the proper
polarity. The power source cables might be labeled (+) and () to indicate
their polarity. There is no standard color coding for DC power cables. The
color coding used by the external DC power source at your site determines
59
the color coding for the leads on the power cables that attach to the
terminal studs on each power supply.
6. Remove the screws from the terminals.

7. Secure each power cable lug to the terminal with the screw (see Figure 38 on page 61).
Apply between 5 lb-in. (0.6 Nm) and 6 lb-in. (0.7 Nm) of torque to screw. Do not
overtighten the nut. (Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver.)
a. Secure the positive (+) DC source power cable lug to the RTN (return) terminal.

Powering On a DC-Powered MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router

To power on a DC-powered router:
1.
Verify that an external management device is connected to one of the Routing Engine
ports (AUX, CONSOLE, or ETHERNET).
2. Turn on the power to the external management device.

3. Verify that the power supplies are fully inserted in the chassis.
4. Verify that the source power cables are connected to the appropriate terminal: the
positive (+) source cable to the return terminal (labeled RTN) and the negative ()
source cable to the input terminal (labeled 48V).
5. Switch on the dedicated customer site circuit breakers to provide power to the DC
power cables.
6. Check that the status LED on the power supply faceplate is lit steadily green to verify
that power is present.

7. If power is not present:
Verify that the fuse is installed correctly, and turn on the breaker at the battery
distribution fuse board or fuse bay.
Check the voltage with a meter at the terminals of the power supply for correct
voltage level and polarity.

9. On each of the DC power supplies, switch the DC circuit breaker to the center position
before moving it to the on ( | ) position.
61
NOTE: The circuit breaker may bounce back to the off (O) position if you
move the breaker too quickly.
Observe the status LED on each power supply faceplate. If a DC power supply is
correctly installed and functioning normally, the status LED lights green steadily.
If the status LED on the power supply is lit red, the power supply is not functioning
normally. Repeat the installation and cabling procedures.
turning it back on. After powering on a power supply, wait at least 60
seconds before turning it off.
If the system is completely powered off when you power on the power
supply, the Routing Engine boots as the power supply completes its startup
sequence. If the Routing Engine finishes booting and you need to power
off the system again, first issue the CLI request system halt command.
After a power supply is powered on, it can take up to 60 seconds for status
indicatorssuch as the status LEDs on the power supply and the
show chassis command displayto indicate that the power supply is

CHAPTER 11
Configuring Junos OS
Initially Configuring MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers

The MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 routers are shipped with the Junos operating system
(OS) preinstalled and ready to be configured when the router is powered on. Two 4-GB
internal NAND flash devices (da0 and da1) are located on the baseboard. The USB storage
device (da2) can be inserted into the slot in the front panel faceplate. The two NAND
flash devices act as the primary boot device (da0) and hard drive (da1).
When the router boots, it first attempts to start the image on the USB flash drive. If a
USB flash drive is not inserted into the router or the attempt otherwise fails, the router
next tries the primary boot device, and then tries the secondary boot device.
You configure the router by issuing Junos OS command-line interface (CLI) commands,
either on a console device attached to the Routing Engine CONSOLE port on the front
panel, or over a telnet connection to a network connected to the Routing Engine
ETHERNET port on the front panel.
Gather the following information before configuring the router:
Name the router will use on the network
Domain name the router will use
IP address and prefix length information for the Ethernet interface
IP address of a default router
IP address of a DNS server
Password for the root user
This procedure connects the router to the network but does not enable it to forward
traffic. For complete information about enabling the router to forward traffic, including
examples, see the Junos OS configuration guides.
To configure the software:
1.
Verify that the router is powered on.
2. Log in as the root user. There is no password.

Maintaining the MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Air Filter

Purpose
Action
For optimum cooling, verify the condition of the air filter.
Regularly inspect the air filter. A dirty air filter restricts airflow in the unit, producing a
negative effect on the ventilation of the chassis. The filter degrades over time. You
must replace the filter every 6 months.
CAUTION: Always keep the air filter in place while the router is operating.
Because the fans are very powerful, they could pull small bits of wire or
other materials into the router through the unfiltered air intake. This could
damage the router components.
Related
Documentation
Use spare filters within 1 year of manufacture. Check the date of manufacture printed
on the filter. Store spare air filters in a dark, cool, and dry place. Storing air filters at
higher temperatures, or where they can be exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation,
hydrocarbon emissions, or vapors from solvents, can significantly reduce their life.

Maintaining the MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Fan Tray

Purpose
Action
For optimum cooling, verify the condition of the fans.
Monitor the status of the fans. A fan tray contains multiple fans that work in unison to
cool the router components. If one fan fails, the router adjusts the speed of the
remaining fans to maintain proper cooling. A red alarm is triggered when a fan fails,
and a yellow alarm and red alarm are triggered when a fan tray is removed.
To display the status of the cooling system, issue the show chassis environment
command. The output is similar to the following:

Maintaining Cables That Connect to MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 MICs
Purpose
Action
For optimum router performance, verify the condition of the cables that connect to the
MICs.
On a regular basis:
Use the cable management bracket to support cables and prevent cables from
dislodging or developing stress points.
Place excess cable out of the way in the cable management bracket. Do not allow
fastened loops of cable to dangle from the connector or cable management bracket,
because this stresses the cable at the fastening point. Putting fasteners on the loops
helps to maintain their shape.
Keep the cable connections clean and free of dust and other particles, which can cause
drops in the received power level. Always inspect cables and clean them if necessary
before connecting an interface.
Label both ends of the cables to identify them.
The following guidelines apply specifically to fiber-optic cables:
When you unplug a fiber-optic cable, always place a rubber safety plug over the
transceiver on the faceplate and on the end of the cable.
Anchor fiber-optic cables to avoid stress on the connectors. Be sure to secure fiber-optic
cables so that they do not support their own weight as they hang to the floor. Never
let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector.
Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its bend radius. An arc smaller than a few
inches can damage the cable and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
Frequent plugging and unplugging of fiber-optic cable into and out of optical
instruments can cause damage to the instruments that is expensive to repair. Instead,
attach a short fiber extension to the optical equipment. Any wear and tear due to
frequent plugging and unplugging is then absorbed by the short fiber extension, which
is easy and inexpensive to replace.
Keep fiber-optic cable connections clean. Small microdeposits of oil and dust in the
canal of the transceiver or cable connector could cause loss of light, reducing signal
power and possibly causing intermittent problems with the optical connection.
To clean the transceivers, use an appropriate fiber-cleaning device, such as RIFOCS
Fiber Optic Adaptor Cleaning Wands (part number 946). Follow the directions for the
cleaning kit you use.
After you clean an optical transceiver, make sure that the connector tip of the fiber-optic
cable is clean. Use only an approved alcohol-free fiber-optic cable cleaning kit, such
as the Opptex Cletop-S Fiber Cleaner. Follow the directions for the cleaning kit you
use.

Removing an MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 MIC

MICs are hot-insertable and hot-removable. When you remove a MIC, the router continues
to function, although the MIC interfaces being removed no longer function.
In the MX5, MX10, MX40, and modular configuration of the MX80 router, the MICs can
be installed in two slots in the front of the router. A MIC weighs less than 2 lb (0.9 kg).
To remove a MIC (see Figure 43 on page 88 and Figure 44 on page 88):
1.
Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface to receive the
MIC. If the MIC connects to fiber-optic cable, have ready a rubber safety cap for each
transceiver and cable.

3. Use one of the following methods to take the MIC offline:
Press its online/offline button. Use a narrow-ended tool that fits inside the opening
that leads to the button. Press and hold the button until the MIC OK/FAIL LED goes
off (about 5 seconds).
Issue the following CLI command:

user@host> request chassis mic fpc-slot slot-number mic-slot slot-number offline
4. Label the cables connected to the MIC so that you can later reconnect each cable to
the correct MIC.

5. Disconnect the cables from the MIC. If the MIC uses fiber-optic cable, immediately
cover each transceiver and the end of each cable with a rubber safety cap.


you are inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean
and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
6. Arrange the cable to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure
the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place
excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop.

Documentation
Many router hardware components are sensitive to damage from static electricity. Some
components can be impaired by voltages as low as 30 V. You can easily generate
potentially damaging static voltages whenever you handle plastic or foam packing
material or if you move components across plastic or carpets. Observe the following
guidelines to minimize the potential for electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which
can cause intermittent or complete component failures:
Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap, and make sure that it is in direct contact
with your skin.
CAUTION: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the ESD
strap. The measurement should be in the range of from 1 to 10 Mohms.
114
When handling any component that is removed from the chassis, make sure the
equipment end of your ESD strap is attached to one of the electrostatic discharge
points on the chassis (see Figure 57 on page 115).
Avoid contact between the component and your clothing. ESD voltages emitted from
clothing can still damage components.
When removing or installing a component, always place it component-side up on an

antistatic surface, in an antistatic card rack, or in an electrostatic bag (see
Figure 58 on page 115). If you are returning a component, place it in an electrostatic bag
before packing it.

Fire Safety Requirements for Juniper Networks Devices
General Fire Safety Requirements on page 115
Fire Suppression on page 116
Fire Suppression Equipment on page 116
General Fire Safety Requirements

In the event of a fire emergency involving network devices, the safety of people is the
primary concern. Establish procedures for protecting people in a fire emergency, provide
safety training, and properly provision fire-control equipment and fire extinguishers.
In addition, establish procedures to protect your equipment in a fire emergency. Juniper
Networks products should be installed in an environment suitable for electronic
equipment. We recommend that fire suppression equipment be available in the event
115
of a fire in the vicinity of the equipment, and that you observe all local fire, safety, and
electrical codes and ordinances when installing and operating your equipment.
Fire Suppression
In the event of an electrical hazard or an electrical fire, first turn power off to the equipment
at the source. Then use a Type C fire extinguisher, which uses noncorrosive fire retardants,
to extinguish the fire.
Fire Suppression Equipment

Type C fire extinguishers, which use noncorrosive fire retardants such as carbon dioxide
(CO ) and Halotron, are most effective for suppressing electrical fires. Type C fire
2
extinguishers displace the oxygen from the point of combustion to eliminate the fire. For
extinguishing fire on or around equipment that draws air from the environment for cooling,
use this type of inert oxygen displacement extinguisher instead of an extinguisher that
leave residues on equipment.
Do not use multipurpose Type ABC chemical fire extinguishers (dry chemical fire
extinguishers) near Juniper Networks devices. The primary ingredient in these fire
extinguishers is monoammonium phosphate, which is very sticky and difficult to clean.
In addition, in minute amounts of moisture, monoammonium phosphate can become
highly corrosive and corrodes most metals.
Any equipment in a room in which a chemical fire extinguisher has been discharged is
subject to premature failure and unreliable operation. The equipment is considered to
be irreparably damaged.
NOTE: To keep warranties effective, do not use a dry chemical fire extinguisher
to control a fire at or near a Juniper Networks device. If a dry chemical fire
extinguisher is used, the unit is no longer eligible for coverage under a service
agreement.
We recommend that you dispose of any irreparably damaged equipment in an

environmentally responsible manner.

MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 DC Power Electrical Safety Guidelines

The following electrical safety guidelines apply to a DC-powered router:
A DC-powered router is equipped with a DC terminal block that is rated for the power
requirements of a maximally configured router. To supply sufficient power, terminate
the DC input wiring on a facility DC source capable of supplying at least 13 A @ 48 VDC
per input for each power supply. We recommend that the 48-VDC facility DC source
should be equipped with a circuit breaker rated at 13 A (48 VDC) minimum, or as
required by local code.
Incorporate an easily accessible disconnect device into the facility wiring. In the United
States and Canada, the 48 VDC facility should be equipped with a circuit breaker rated
a minimum of 125 percent of the power provisioned for the input in accordance with
the National Electrical Code in the US and the Canadian Electrical Code in Canada.
Run two wires from the circuit breaker box to a source of 48 VDC. Use appropriate
gauge wire to handle up to 13 A.
Be sure to connect the ground wire or conduit to a solid office (earth) ground. A closed
loop ring is recommended for terminating the ground conductor at the ground stud.
A DC-powered router that is equipped with a DC terminal block is intended only for
installation in a restricted access location. In the United States, a restricted access
area is one in accordance with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA 70.
NOTE: Primary overcurrent protection is provided by the building circuit

breaker. This breaker should protect against excess currents, short circuits,
and earth faults in accordance with NEC ANSI/NFPA70.
136
Ensure that the polarity of the DC input wiring is correct. Under certain conditions,
connections with reversed polarity might trip the primary circuit breaker or damage
the equipment.
For personal safety, connect the green and yellow wire to safety (earth) ground at both
the router and the supply side of the DC wiring.
The marked input voltage of 48 VDC for a DC-powered router is the nominal voltage
associated with the battery circuit, and any higher voltages are only to be associated
with float voltages for the charging function.
Because the router is a positive ground system, you must connect the positive lead to
the terminal labeled RTN, the negative lead to the terminal labeled 48V, and the earth
ground to the chassis grounding points.

Each AC power supply has a single AC appliance inlet located on the power supply that
requires a dedicated AC power feed. Most sites distribute power through a main conduit
that leads to frame-mounted power distribution panels, one of which can be located at
the top of the rack that houses the router. An AC power cord connects each power supply
to the power distribution panel.
You can order detachable AC power cords, each approximately 8 ft (2.5 m) long that
supply AC power to the router. The C13 appliance coupler at the female end of the cord
inserts into the AC appliance inlet coupler, type C14 as described by International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard 60320. The plug at the male end of the
power cord fits into the power source receptacle that is standard for your geographic

Distance Limitations for Signaling

Improperly installed wires can emit radio interference. In addition, the potential for damage
from lightning strikes increases if wires exceed recommended distances or if wires pass
between buildings. The electromagnetic pulse (EMP) caused by lightning can damage
unshielded conductors and destroy electronic devices. If your site has previously
experienced such problems, you might want to consult experts in electrical surge
suppression and shielding.
Radio Frequency Interference

You can reduce or eliminate the emission of radio frequency interference (RFI) from your
site wiring by using twisted-pair cable with a good distribution of grounding conductors.
If you must exceed the recommended distances, use a high-quality twisted-pair cable
with one ground conductor for each data signal when applicable.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
If your site is susceptible to problems with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC),
particularly from lightning or radio transmitters, you might want to seek expert advice.
Strong sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) can destroy the signal drivers and
receivers in the router and conduct power surges over the lines into the equipment,
resulting in an electrical hazard. It is particularly important to provide a properly grounded
and shielded environment and to use electrical surge-suppression devices.
WARNING: The intrabuilding port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is

suitable for connection to intrabuilding or unexposed wiring or cabling only.
The intrabuilding port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be
metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring.
These interfaces are designed for use as intrabuilding interfaces only (Type
2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation
from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not
sufficient protection to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable on page 168
Signal Loss in Multimode and Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Cable

Multimode fiber is large enough in diameter to allow rays of light to reflect internally
(bounce off the walls of the fiber). Interfaces with multimode optics typically use LEDs
as light sources. LEDs are not coherent sources, however. They spray varying wavelengths
of light into the multimode fiber, which reflects the light at different angles. Light rays
travel in jagged lines through a multimode fiber, causing signal dispersion. When light
traveling in the fiber core radiates into the fiber cladding, higher-order mode loss (HOL)
results. Together these factors limit the transmission distance of multimode fiber
compared with single-mode fiber.
Single-mode fiber is so small in diameter that rays of light can reflect internally through
one layer only. Interfaces with single-mode optics use lasers as light sources. Lasers
generate a single wavelength of light, which travels in a straight line through the
single-mode fiber. Compared with multimode fiber, single-mode fiber has higher
bandwidth and can carry signals for longer distances. It is consequently more expensive.
Exceeding the maximum transmission distances can result in significant signal loss, which
causes unreliable transmission.
167
Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable

Correct functioning of an optical data link depends on modulated light reaching the
receiver with enough power to be demodulated correctly. Attenuation is the reduction in
power of the light signal as it is transmitted. Attenuation is caused by passive media
components, such as cables, cable splices, and connectors. While attenuation is
significantly lower for optical fiber than for other media, it still occurs in both multimode
and single-mode transmission. An efficient optical data link must have enough light
available to overcome attenuation.
Dispersion is the spreading of the signal in time. The following two types of dispersion
can affect an optical data link:
Chromatic dispersionSpreading of the signal in time resulting from the different

speeds of light rays.
Modal dispersionSpreading of the signal in time resulting from the different

propagation modes in the fiber.
For multimode transmission, modal dispersion, rather than chromatic dispersion or

attenuation, usually limits the maximum bit rate and link length. For single-mode
transmission, modal dispersion is not a factor. However, at higher bit rates and over longer
distances, chromatic dispersion rather than modal dispersion limits maximum link length.
An efficient optical data link must have enough light to exceed the minimum power that
the receiver requires to operate within its specifications. In addition, the total dispersion
must be less than the limits specified for the type of link in Telcordia Technologies
document GR-253-CORE (Section 4.3) and International Telecommunications Union
(ITU) document G.957.
When chromatic dispersion is at the maximum allowed, its effect can be considered as
a power penalty in the power budget. The optical power budget must allow for the sum
of component attenuation, power penalties (including those from dispersion), and a
safety margin for unexpected losses.

Calculating Power Budget for Fiber-Optic Cable

To ensure that fiber-optic connections have sufficient power for correct operation, you
need to calculate the link's power budget, which is the maximum amount of power it
can transmit. When you calculate the power budget, you use a worst-case analysis to
provide a margin of error, even though all the parts of an actual system do not operate

(dB) and decibels referred to one milliwatt (dBm):
P =P P
B
P = 15 dBm (28 dBm)

B
P = 13 dB

Calculating Power Margin for Fiber-Optic Cable

After calculating a link's power budget you can calculate the power margin (P ), which
M
represents the amount of power available after subtracting attenuation or link loss (LL)
from the power budget (P ). A worst-case estimate of P assumes maximum LL:
B
P = P LL
M
A P greater than zero indicates that the power budget is sufficient to operate the receiver.
M
Factors that can cause link loss include higher-order mode losses (HOL), modal and
chromatic dispersion, connectors, splices, and fiber attenuation. Table 34 on page 169
lists an estimated amount of loss for the factors used in the following sample calculations.
For information about the actual amount of signal loss caused by equipment and other
factors, refer to vendor documentation.
Table 34: Estimated Values for Factors Causing Link Loss

Link-Loss Factor
Estimated Link-Loss Value
Higher-order mode losses
Single-modeNone
Multimode0.5 dB
Modal and chromatic dispersion
Single-modeNone
MultimodeNone, if product of bandwidth and distance
is less than 500 MHz-km
Connector
0.5 dB
Splice
0.5 dB
Fiber attenuation
Single-mode0.5 dB/km
Multimode1 dB/km
The following example uses the estimated values in Table 33 to calculate link loss (LL)
for a 2-km-long multimode link with a power budget (P ) of 13 dB:
B
Fiber attenuation for 2 km @ 1.0 dB/km= 2 dB
Loss for five connectors @ 0.5 dB per connector = 5(0.5 dB) = 2.5 dB
169
Loss for two splices @ 0.5 dB per splice =2(0.5 dB) = 1 dB
Higher-order mode loss = 0.5 dB
Clock recovery module = 1 dB
The power margin (P ) is calculated as follows:

M
P = P LL
M
P = 13 dB 2 km (1.0 dB/km) 5 (0.5 dB) 2 (0.5 dB) 0.5 dB [HOL] 1 dB [CRM]

M
P = 13 dB 2 dB 2.5 dB 1 dB 0.5 dB 1 dB
M
P = 6 dB
M
The following sample calculation for an 8-km-long single-mode link with a power budget
(P ) of 13 dB uses the estimated values from Table 34 on page 169 to calculate link loss
B
(LL) as the sum of fiber attenuation (8 km @ 0.5 dB/km, or 4 dB) and loss for seven
connectors (0.5 dB per connector, or 3.5 dB). The power margin (P ) is calculated as
M
follows:
P = P LL
M
P = 13 dB 8 km (0.5 dB/km) 7(0.5 dB)

M
P = 13 dB 4 dB 3.5 dB
M
P = 5.5 dB
M
In both examples, the calculated power margin is greater than zero, indicating that the
link has sufficient power for transmission and does not exceed the maximum receiver
input power.

CLI operational mode and issue the following command to shut down the router
software.
user@host> request system halt
Wait until a message appears on the console confirming that the operating system
has halted.
For more information about the command, see the Junos OS Operational Mode
Commands.

4. Shut down power to the router by pressing the AC input switch or DC circuit breaker
for all power supplies to the off (O) position.

5. Disconnect power from the router.
6. Remove the cables that connect to all external devices.
7. Remove all field replaceable units (FRUs) from the router.
8. Remove the router from the rack. One person should grasp the router while a second
person unscrews and removes the mounting screws from the rack. One lifter can then
move the router to the shipping container.
9. Place the router in the shipping container.
10. Cover the router with an ESD bag and place the packing foam on top of and around
the router.
