ACX5048 and ACX5096 Chassis

The management panel of the ACX5000 router is found on the Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) end of the router as shown in Figure 1 for 1 U ACX5048 router and Figure 2 for the 2 U ACX5096 router.

See Figure 3 and Figure 4 for FRUs and management panel detail.

The management panel consists of the following components:

• Status LEDs

  • ALM–Alarm

    • Unlit indicates the router is halted or that there is no alarm.

    • Red indicates a hardware fault, such as a power failure or a system shutdown due to system over-heating.

    • Amber indicates a major or minor alarm.

  • SYS–System

    • Unlit indicates the router is powered off or halted.

    • Solid green indicates that Junos OS for ACX Series is loaded on the router.

  • ID–Identification or beacon

    • Unlit indicates the beacon feature is not enabled.

    • Blinking blue indicates the beacon feature is enabled. This feature is enabled using the request chassis beacon command.

• Router product number

• Management Ports C0 and C1

  • C0–Use the RJ-45 connectors for 10/100/1000 BaseT. See Connecting an ACX5000 Router to a Network for Out-of-Band Management.

  • C1–Use the SFP connector for 1000 BaseX.

• USB port for image updates.

• Console port (RJ-45) to support RS-232 serial ports.

The port panel of the ACX5048 supports up to a maximum of 72 logical 10 GbE ports when operating as a standalone router. Forty-eight physical ports(0 through 47) support 10 Gbps small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) transceivers. These ports can be configured as access ports. All 48 of these ports can be used for SFP+ transceivers or SFP+ direct attach copper (DAC) cables. You can use 1-Gigabit Ethernet SFP, 10-Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ transceivers and SFP+ direct attach copper cables in any access port.

The remaining 24 logical ports are available for six 40 GbE ports (48 through 53) that support up to six quad small-form factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) transceivers or QSFP+. Each QSFP+ socket can operate either as a single 40 Gbps port or as a set of 4 independent 10 Ggps ports using QSFP+ breakout cables. The 40 GbE ports can be configured as either access ports or as uplinks.

Figure 5 shows the port panel of a ACX5048 router.

The port panel of the ACX5096 router consists of 96 small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) and 8 quad small-form factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) ports. Physical ports(0 through 95) support 10 Gbps SFP+ transceivers and normally are configured as access ports. The eight 40-Gigabit ports (96 through 103) support QSFP+ transceivers and are normally configured as uplinks or Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs). Although the 104 physical ports of the ACX5096 would map to 128 logical ports using channelization, only 104 logical ports are supported.

The ACX5000 routers has four status LEDs on the FRU side of the chassis, next to the management ports (see Figure 7).

1 — Status LEDs	4 — RJ-45 console port (C0N) )
2 — em1–SFP management Ethernet port (C1) Cage (socket for either 10/100/1000 Base-T RJ45 SFP or 1GbE fiber SFP)	5 — USB port
3 — em0–RJ-45 (10/100/1000 Base-T) management Ethernet port (C0)

Table 1 describes the chassis status LEDs on an ACX5000 router, their colors and states, and the status they indicate. You can view the colors of the three LEDs remotely through the CLI by issuing the operational mode command show chassis lcd.

The management ports (labeled C0 for 10/100/1000 Base-T and C1 for 10/100/1000 Base-T and SFP 1000 Base-X connections) on an ACX5000 router have two LEDs that indicate link status and link activity (see Figure 8). The left LED indicates status; the right LED indicates link/activity.

Table 2 describes the management port LEDs.

The Link/Activity and Status LED configuration for ACX5000 routers use bi-colored LEDs. The link LED indicates link activity or a fault. The status LED indicates transceiver presence. See Table 3 to locate the position and type of LED for your ACX5000 model.

Model	Port Type	Indicators	Location
ACX5048	SFP+	LinkStatus
ACX5096	SFP+	LinkStatus

Table 4 describes how to interpret the SFP+ port LEDs.

As shown in Table 3, there are four bi-color LEDs for each QSFP+ port. The first LED is used and the remaining LEDs are not used when the interface is configured for 40-Gigabit Ethernet and connected to a QSFP+ transceiver. All four LEDs are used when the interface is configured for 10-Gigabit Ethernet and the port is connected using an optical split cable or a copper DACBO cable. Table 5 describes how to interpret the QSFP+ LEDs.
