EX6210 Line Cards

Line Card Model and Version Compatibility in an EX6200 Switch

Three line cards are available for EX6200 switches. Table 1 shows the model numbers, the names of the line cards, and the Junos OS release in which the models were first supported.

Ensure that all of the line cards in a switch are supported in the Junos OS release that you want to use.

48-Port RJ-45 Line Card in an EX6200 Switch

The line cards in EX6200 switches combine a Packet Forwarding Engine and Ethernet interfaces on a single assembly. They are field-replaceable units (FRUs) that can be installed in the line card slots on the front of the switch chassis. See Slot Numbering for an EX6210 Switch. The line cards are hot-insertable and hot-removable: You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions. See Figure 1.

Table 2 shows the model number, description of the line card model, and the Junos OS release in which the model was released.

Line Card Components

• Forty-eight 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet RJ-45 ports

• Line Card LEDs—Two status LEDs labeled ON and ST on the faceplate that indicate the online and status information for the line card. See Line Card LEDs in an EX6200 Switch.

• Network port LEDs—Two LEDs per network port that indicate the link/activity and status of each port. See Network Port LEDs in an EX6200 Switch.

48-Port PoE+ Line Card in an EX6200 Switch

The line cards in EX6200 switches combine a Packet Forwarding Engine and Ethernet interfaces on a single assembly. They are field-replaceable units (FRUs) that can be installed in the line card slots on the front of the switch chassis. See Slot Numbering for an EX6210 Switch. The line cards are hot-insertable and hot-removable: You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions. See Figure 2.

Table 3 shows the model number, description of the line card model, and the Junos OS release in which the model was released.

Line Card Components

• Forty-eight 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports. All 48 ports on this line card support PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3 at).

• Line Card LEDs—Three status LEDs labeled ON, ST, and PoE on the faceplate that indicate the online and status information for the line card. See Line Card LEDs in an EX6200 Switch.

• Network port LEDs—Two LEDs per network port that indicate the link/activity and status of each port. See Network Port LEDs in an EX6200 Switch

48-Port SFP Line Card in an EX6200 Switch

The line cards in EX6200 switches combine a Packet Forwarding Engine and Ethernet interfaces on a single assembly. They are field-replaceable units (FRUs) that can be installed in the line card slots on the front of the switch chassis. See Slot Numbering for an EX6210 Switch. The line cards are hot-insertable and hot-removable: You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions. See Figure 3.

Table 4 provides the model number, the name of the line card model, and the Junos OS release in which the model was first supported.

Line Card Components

• Forty-eight 1-gigabit small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports, which can house SFP transceivers

• Line card LEDs—Two status LEDs labeled ON and ST on the faceplate that indicate the online and status information for the line card. See Line Card LEDs in an EX6200 Switch.

• Network port LEDs—Two LEDs per network port that indicate the link activity and status of each port. See Network Port LEDs in an EX6200 Switch.

Line Card LEDs in an EX6200 Switch

The line cards in EX6200 switches have two status LEDs labeled ON and ST on the faceplate (see Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6) that indicate the online and status information of the line cards.
