9.Tighten the captive screws on the faceplate of the line card by using the screwdriver.

10.Verify that the ON LED starts blinking in green. When the ON LED is lit steadily, the line card is ready for use. If the ON LED does not blink or is not lit steadily, see “Troubleshooting Line Card Installation on EX8200 Switches” on page 237.

CAUTION: After the ON LED is lit steadily, wait for at least 30 seconds before installing another line card or removing a line card.

You can verify that the line card is functioning correctly by issuing the show chassis fpc and show chassis fpc pic-status commands.

NOTE: If you have a Juniper J-Care service contract, register any addition, change, or upgrade of hardware components at https://www.juniper.net/customers/csc/management/updateinstallbase.jsp. Failure to do so can result in significant delays if you need replacement parts. This note applies if you change the type of line card. It does not apply if you replace these components with the same type of component.

Installing a Transceiver in an EX Series Switch

The transceivers for EX Series switches are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions.

Use only optical transceivers and optical connectors purchased from Juniper Networks for your EX Series switch.
