The management panel on an ACX7100-48L router displays the router product number, and consists of the following components:

  • Status LEDs—ALM, SYS, MST, and ID LEDs.

  • Management (MGMT) port—10/100/1000BASE-T management port that uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a management device for out-of-band management. See Connect an ACX7100-48L Router to a Network for Out-of-Band Management

  • Console (CON) port—uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a console management device. An optional GPS Time of Day (TOD) is also supported. To connect to both console and ToD simultaneously, you must use the breakout cable that is provided with the device.

    Note:

    If you connect to both console and ToD simultaneously using a breakout cable, you must ensure that you have not configured the log-out-on-disconnect statement at the [edit system ports console] hierarchy level.

  • USB port for image updates

  • Reset button to reset the device

  • SMB connector ports that support 1-PPS and 10-MHz timing devices

Management Port LEDs on ACX7100-48L Routers

The ACX7100-48L has one management port that has separate LEDs to indicate link status and link activity. The port is located on the management panel and is labeled MGMT. Figure 2 shows the location of the LEDs.

Port Panel of ACX7100-48L Routers

The port panel of an ACX7100-48L router has the following port configurations:

  • Forty-seven small form-factor pluggable (SFP56) ports (ports 0 through 46) that operate at 50-Gbps speed when you use SFP56 transceivers, at 25-Gbps speed when you use small form-factor pluggable (SFP28) transceivers, or at 10-Gbps speed when you use small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) transceivers.

  • One small form-factor pluggable (SFP28) port (port 47) that operates at 25-Gbps speed when you use SFP28 transceivers or at 10-Gbps speed when you use SFP+ transceivers.

    Note:

    If PTP is configured, the port 47 is not available.

  • Six double density quad small form-factor pluggable (QSFP56-DD) ports (ports 48 through 53) that are configured as 400GbE ports by default.

    The QSFP56-DD network ports support:

    • QSFP56-DD transceivers

    • QSFP28-DD transceivers

    • QSFP28 transceivers

    • QSFP+ transceivers

    • Active optical cables (AOC)

    • Direct attach copper (DAC) cables

Note:

Be aware of the following ambient temperature conditions for ACX7100-48L devices:

  • For ACX7100-48L AFO models, at an ambient temperature greater than 40°C (at 6000 feet altitude above sea level), you can install only 100G transceivers in any of the QSFP56-DD ports.

  • For ACX7100-48L AFI models, the supported ambient temperature is 40°C (at 6000 feet altitude above sea level).

Note:

The QDD-400G-ZR and QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers are supported only in the ACX7100-48L AFO models. To support the QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers, you must update the temperature thresholds of the inlet sensors. However, for the QDD-400G-ZR transceivers, you need not update the default temperature threshold values. For more information about supporting the QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers on ACX7100-48L AFO models, see Guidelines for Using QDD-400G-ZR-M Transceivers on ACX7100-48L AFO Models.

To understand all the potential restrictions and validate different port configurations on an ACX7100‑48L router, use the Port Checker Tool.

Guidelines for Using QDD-400G-ZR-M Transceivers on ACX7100-48L AFO Models

Before you install QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers, you must update the temperature thresholds of the inlet sensors to facilitate an increase in fan speeds. This prevents the transceivers from powering off. We recommend that you update the temperature thresholds at ambient room temperature (23°C to 27°C).

Update the Temperature Thresholds

The following example requires you to navigate various levels in the configuration hierarchy. For information about navigating the CLI, see the CLI User Guide.

To update the temperature thresholds, in configuration mode, perform the following steps on an ACX7100-48L device:

  1. Update the temperature thresholds for the Main PCBLeft temperature sensor by executing the following commands:

  2. Update the temperature thresholds for the Main PCBRight temperature sensor by executing the following commands:

  3. Commit the configuration.

In the above example, the threshold values are updated to support the QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers. If you are not using the QDD-400G-ZR-M transceivers, you will need to delete the changes made to the temperature thresholds. To do this, in configuration mode, perform the following steps:

  1. Delete the Main PCBLeft and Main PCBRight temperature sensors.

  2. Commit the configuration.

Verify the Updated Temperature Thresholds

You can verify the changes made to temperature thresholds by using any of the following methods:

  • In operational mode, run the show chassis enhanced-temperature-thresholds command to view the configured thresholds for all the sensors.

  • In configuration mode, execute the following command:

Network Port LEDs on ACX7100-48L Routers

Each ACX7100-48L network port uses a single bicolored LED to indicate link status, activity on the link, or a fault condition. Figure 4 and Figure 5 show the location of the LEDs on an ACX7100-48L device.
