QSFP28 Network Ports
The ACX6360 has 20 28-Gbps quad small form-factor pluggable (QSFP28) sockets that are configured as 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports by default.
The QSFP28 network ports, (0 to 19) support:
100 Gbps QSFP28 transceivers
40 Gbps QSFP+ transceivers
100 Gbps active optical cables (AOC)
40 Gbps AOC
QSFP28 direct attach copper (DAC) cables
QSFP+ DAC cables
QSFP+ direct attach copper break out (DACBO) cables
QSFP28 DACBO cables
Port speeds are configured using the set chassis fpc 0
pic 0 port port-number speed speed
command. You configure ports to operate at a particular speed
by using the appropriate speed option. If you configure a port to
operate at a certain speed, and you want to return the port to the
default configuration, delete the speed
statement from
the configuration at the [chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port port-number]
hierarchy level and commit the configuration.
The network port is reset to the default Ethernet interface.
CFP2-DCO Network Ports
The ACX6360 has 8 CFP2 network ports that support C form-factor pluggable type 2 transceivers.
The CFP2 network ports, (0 to 7) support:
200 Gbps CFP2 transceivers
ACX6360 Chassis Status LEDs
The ACX6360 has three status LEDs on the port panel of the chassis, next to the network ports (see Figure 2).

1 — System status LEDs | 5 — Network port LEDs (for the QSFP28 ports) |
2 — Network ports (QSFP28 ports) | 6 — Console port |
3 — Network ports (CFP2-DCO ports) | 7 — Management port |
4 — Network port LEDs (for the CFP2-DCO ports) |
Table 1 describes the chassis status LEDs on an ACX6360, their colors and states, and the status they indicate.
Name |
Color |
State |
Description |
---|---|---|---|
ALM–Alarm or beacon |
Unlit |
Off |
The device is halted or there is no alarm. |
Red |
On steadily |
A major hardware fault has occurred, such as a temperature alarm or power failure, and the device has halted. Power off the device by setting the AC power source outlet to the OFF (O) position, or unplugging the AC power cords. Correct any voltage or site temperature issues, and allow the device to cool down. Power on the device and monitor the power supply and fan LEDs to help determine where the error is occurring. |
|
Amber |
On steadily |
A minor alarm has occurred, such as a software error. Power off the device by setting the AC power source outlet to the OFF (O) position, or unplugging the AC power cords. Power on the device and monitor the status LEDs to ensure that Junos OS boots properly. |
|
SYS–System |
Unlit |
Off |
The device is powered off or halted. |
Green |
On steadily |
Junos OS is loaded on the device. |
|
ID–Identification |
Unlit |
Off |
The beacon feature is not enabled on the device. This
feature is enabled using the |
Blue |
Blinking |
The beacon feature is enabled on the device. This feature
is enabled using the |
ACX6360 Management Port LEDs
There are two management ports on the ACX6360, Both ports are labeled MGMT. The RJ-45 management port is for 10/100/1000BASE-T connections and is located on the port panel. The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) management port is for 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X connections and is located on the FRU end of the device.
The RJ-45 port has separate LEDs for status and activity. The SFP port has a LED to indicate both link and activity. Figure 3 shows the location of the LEDs.

1 — Status LED (RJ-45) | 2 — Link activity LED (RJ-45) |
Table 2 describes the RJ-45 management port LEDs.

ACX6360 Network Port LEDs
Each ACX6360 network port uses a single bicolored LED to indicate link status and activity. The circular LEDs for the QSFP28 ports are located underneath the ports. The triangular arrow next to the LED points either up or down indicating whether the LED is associated with the top or bottom port. The circular LEDs for the CFP2 ports are located to the right of the ports.Figure 4 shows the location of the LEDs.

1 — Network port LEDs (for the QSFP28 ports) | 2 — Network port LEDs (for the CFP2 ports) |
For the QSFP28 ports, the number next to the LED indicates the port number that the LED belongs to and the arrow next to the LED indicates if it is the top or bottom port.
Table 4 describes the QSFP28 network port LEDs.
Color |
State |
Description |
---|---|---|
Unlit |
