Before you install a PIM, verify that the combination of PIMs installed in a chassis does not exceed the power and heat capacities for that model. The capacity of each chassis model and power and heat values required by each PIM can be represented in non-dimensional tokens.

Caution: Do not install a combination of PIMs in a single chassis that exceeds the power and heat capacities described in this section. Installing such a combination of PIMs in your router might cause equipment damage. |
Add the token values for power and heat for each PIM or module that you want to install in a single chassis. The power tokens for a J4350 or J6450 chassis must not exceed 100. Likewise, the heat tokens must not exceed 100.
Table 1 shows the power and heat dissipation tokens assigned to each J-series PIM or module.
