Juniper Networks manual Uplink Modules in EX3200 and EX4200 Switches

Chapter 2: Component Descriptions

Figure 23: Airflow Through the EX4200 Switch Chassis

The fan tray used in an EX4200 switch comes with load-sharing redundancy that can tolerate a single fan failure at room temperature (below 45° C/113° F) to still provide sufficient cooling.

Temperature sensors in the chassis monitor the temperature within the chassis. The system raises an alarm if the fan fails or if the temperature inside the chassis rises above permitted levels. If the temperature inside the chassis rises above the threshold, the system shuts down automatically and the temperature shutdown LED on the rear panel is lit. You can see the status of fans and the temperature from the Show Environment Status option in the Status menu in the LCD panel.

Uplink Modules in EX3200 and EX4200 Switches

EX3200 and EX4200 switches support three types of uplink modules:

■SFP uplink module—Provides four ports for 1-gigabit small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers.

■SFP+ uplink module—Provides two ports for 10-gigabit small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) transceivers when configured to operate in 10-gigabit mode
