Bidirectional Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Optical Interface Specifications (MX Series Routers)

The following bidirectional SFPs are supported on MX Series routers. To determine which SFPs are supported on each DPC, see the “Cables and connectors” section for each DPC.

  • Table 1 shows the optical specifications for 100Base-BX bidirectional SFPs. 100Base-BX bidirectional interfaces are supported in JUNOS 9.6 and later and must be used in pairs.
  • Table 2, Table 3, and Table 4 show the optical specifications for 1000Base-BX bidirectional SFPs. 1000Base-BX bidirectional interfaces are supported in JUNOS 9.0 and later and must be used in pairs.
