Cables and connectors

4-port PIC:

• Connector: Two-pair, Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair connectivity through an RJ-45 connector
• Pinout: MDI noncrossover

8-port PIC:

• Connector: MT-RJ female
• FX optical interface—see Table 15

12-port PIC:

• Connector: One very High Density Connector Interface (VHDCI) to RJ-21 cable that connects to an RJ-45 patch panel

48-port PIC:

• VHDCI-to-RJ-21 cables that connect to an RJ-45 patch panel
• Four VHDCI connectors that each service 12 10/100 ports

Note: Each of the four connectors on a Fast Ethernet 48-port PIC can support a maximum of approximately 800 Mbps. However, this constitutes oversubscription. Use this PIC only in environments that can support this level of oversubscription.

LEDs

Status LED, one bicolor:

• Off—PIC ports not enabled
• Green—PIC is operating normally
• Red—PIC has an error or failure

4-port PIC—One pair of port LEDs:

• Link LED—If green, the port is online; if there is no light, the port is down
• RX LED—If flashing green, the port is receiving data; if there is no light, the port might be on but is not receiving data

8-port PIC—one pair of port LEDs per port:

• Port link LED—If green, the port is online; if there is no light, the port is down

  Note: The Link LED remains lit on the 8-port PIC when the port is down.

• Port RX LED—If flashing green, the port is receiving data; if there is no light, the port might be on, but is not receiving data

12-port PIC—one port LED per port:

• Green—100-Mbps link established
• Flashing green—100-Mbps activity
• Yellow—10-Mbps link established
• Flashing yellow—10-Mbps activity
• Off—No link present

  Note: The port LEDs remain lit on the 12-port PIC when the ports are down.

Note: The 48-port PIC does not have port LEDs. To check port status on a 48-port PIC, use the show interfaces fe-fpc/pic/port command. For more information about this command, see the JUNOS Network Interfaces Configuration Guide.
