These books go beyond the technical documentation to explore the nuances of network architecture,
deployment, and administration. The current list can be viewed at https://www.juniper.net/books.
Using the Examples in This Manual
If you want to use the examples in this manual, you can use the load merge or the load merge relative
command. These commands cause the software to merge the incoming configuration into the current
candidate configuration. The example does not become active until you commit the candidate configuration.
If the example configuration contains the top level of the hierarchy (or multiple hierarchies), the example
is a full example. In this case, use the load merge command.
If the example configuration does not start at the top level of the hierarchy, the example is a snippet. In
this case, use the load merge relative command. These procedures are described in the following sections.
Merging a Full Example
To merge a full example, follow these steps:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration example into a text file, save the
file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following configuration to a file and name the file ex-script.conf. Copy the
ex-script.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
system {
scripts {
commit {
file ex-script.xsl;
}
}
}
interfaces {
fxp0 {
disable;
unit 0 {
family inet {
address 10.0.0.1/24;
}
}
}
}
xii
2. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge
configuration mode command:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration snippet into a text file, save the
file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following snippet to a file and name the file ex-script-snippet.conf. Copy the
ex-script-snippet.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
commit {
file ex-script-snippet.xsl; }
2. Move to the hierarchy level that is relevant for this snippet by issuing the following configuration mode
command:
[edit]
user@host# edit system scripts
[edit system scripts]
xiii
3. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge
relative configuration mode command:
[edit system scripts]
user@host# load merge relative /var/tmp/ex-script-snippet.conf
load complete

Benefits of the MX10003 Router
Space-optimized, power-efficient cloud-era routing platform—The MX10003 caters to the edge and
•
Metro Ethernet needs of service providers, mobile operators, multiple-service operators in space- and
power-constrained environments. Delivering 2.4 Tbps of throughput in just three rack units (3 U), the
MX10003 delivers industry-leading port density and performance while consuming just 0.9 watts per
gigabit of throughput.
Integrated high-precision timing—The MX10003 router eliminates the need for external clocks by
•
supporting highly scalable and reliable hardware-based timing including Synchronous Ethernet for
frequency, and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for frequency and phase synchronization. The router uses
a hybrid mode, combining Synchronous Ethernet and PTP, to achieve a high level of frequency (10 ppb)
and phase (<1.5 uS) accuracy.
Simplified management through Junos Fusion—You can use the MX10003 as aggregation devices in a
•
Junos Fusion Provider Edge deployment, where EX Series and QFX Series switches function as satellite
devices.
MX10003 Router Hardware Overview
The MX10003 router contains modular Routing Engines and multiple Packet Forwarding Engines. The
Packet Forwarding Engine has two “pseudo” Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPC 0 and FPC1). The single
Packet Forwarding Engine takes care of both ingress and egress packet forwarding.
The MX10003 is a compact router, three rack units (3U) tall. Several routers can be stacked in a single
floor-to-ceiling rack for increased port density per unit of floor space.
The router provides two dedicated line card slots for Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs). MPCs install
into the line-card slots. The router supports two redundant Routing and Control Board (RCB). The RCB
houses the Routing Engine and Control Board. The router is powered by six dedicated AC/DC power
supply modules. Cooling is handled by four fan modules.
See Table 3 on page 20 for components supported on the router.

Starting in Junos OS Release 18.3R1, you can use the Mellanox 10-Gbps pluggable adapter (QSFP+ to
SFP+ adapter or QSA; model number: MAM1Q00A-QSA) to convert four lane-based ports to a single
lane-based SFP+ port. The QSA adapter has the QSFP+ form factor with a receptacle for the SFP+ module.
Use the QSA adapter to convert a 40-Gbps port to a 10-Gbps or a 1-Gbps port. You can configure the
4x10 Gbps ports on the fixed pic (6XQSFPP) and the QSFP28 ports on the non-MACSEC MIC (JNP-MIC1)
in the 1-Gbps mode, when the SFP is plugged in through the QSA adapter.
NOTE:
The interface name prefix must be xe.
•
Rate selectability at PIC level and port level does not support 1-Gbps speed.
•
For the link to come up, you must configure the no-auto-neg statement on the egress interface.
•
NOTE: For a complete list of supported optics on MX10003, see MX10003 Transceivers.

MX10003 Component Redundancy
A fully configured router is designed so that no single point of failure can cause the entire system to fail.
Only a fully configured router provides complete redundancy. All other configurations provide partial
redundancy. The following major hardware components are redundant:
Host subsystem—The host subsystem consists of two Routing and Control Boards (RCBs). The RCB is
•
an integrated board and a single FRU that provides Routing Engine and Control Board functionality. The
router can have one or two host subsystems. If two host subsystems are installed, one functions as the
primary and the other functions as the backup. If the primary host subsystem (or either of its components)
fails, the backup can take over as the primary. The RCB installed in slot 0 functions as the default primary.
23
Power supplies—The router supports six power supplies. Table 6 on page 23 shows the power redundancy
•
supported on the AC and DC powered router for minimum operation. Minimum power supplies required
for non-redundant operation is 2 for AC (high), 3 for DC, and 4 for AC (low). With additional power
supplies, it provides N+1 and N+N redundancy for the system. Both AC and DC systems can withstand
the failure of a single power supply without system interruption in N+1 redundancy mode. If one power
supply fails in a fully redundant system, the other power supply can provide full power to the router
indefinitely.

Cooling system—The cooling system has a total of four fan modules, which are controlled and monitored
•
by the host subsystem. A fully configured router needs all the four fan modules to operate normal. The
fan modules are at the rear and are used to cool the router. If a fan fails or the temperature rises above
the temperature threshold, the speed of the remaining fans is automatically adjusted to keep the
temperature within the acceptable range.
CAUTION: For a fully configured router, all the four fan modules must be operational,
and in the event of any fan module failure the failed fan module must be replaced
immediately.

MX10003 Field-Replaceable Units
24
Field-replaceable units (FRUs) are router components that can be replaced at the customer site (see
Table 7 on page 24). Replacing most FRUs requires minimal router downtime. The router uses the following
types of FRUs:
Hot-removable and hot-insertable FRUs—You can remove and replace these components without
•
powering off the router or disrupting the routing functions.
Hot-pluggable FRUs—You can remove and replace these components without powering off the router,
•
but the routing functions of the system are interrupted when the component is removed.
Table 7 on page 24 lists the FRUs for the router.

The cooling system components work together to keep all router components within the acceptable
temperature range.
The cooling system consists of the following components:
31
Fan Modules
The chassis monitors the temperature of the router components. When the router is operating normally,
the fans function at lower than full speed. If a fan fails or the ambient temperature rises above a threshold,
the speed of the remaining fans is automatically adjusted to keep the temperature within the acceptable
range. If the ambient maximum temperature specification is exceeded and the system cannot be adequately
cooled, the Routing Engine shuts down the router by disabling output power from each power supply.
The router has four fan modules that install vertically at the rear of the router. Each fan module contains
two counter-rotating fans. The fan modules are hot-insertable and hot-removable field-replaceable units
(FRUs) (see Figure 7 on page 32).

Airflow
The router has front-to-back (AIR OUT) cooling system (see Figure 8 on page 33). Air is pulled through
the front the chassis toward the fan module, which exhausts the air out of the router.

Air Filter Unit
The air filter unit consists of three parts–the outer filter cover, the air filter, and the inner cage that form
the body, and the air filter (see Figure 9 on page 33). The air filter sits right inside the outer filter cover
and the inner cage. The air filter unit is installed into the cable management brackets, and are held tightly
by captive screws.

MX10003 AC Power System Description
35
The MX10003 uses either AC or DC power supply modules (see Figure 10 on page 36 ). The router contain
six power supplies located at the rear of the chassis in slots PSM0 through PSM5. The AC or DC power
supplies directly plug into the midplane and are placed symmetrically on both sides of the chassis for better
thermal management. Each power supply has a handle, an ejection lever, and a status LED. The power
supplies connect to the baseboard, which distributes the different output voltages produced by the power
supplies to the router components, depending on their voltage requirements. A minimum of 3 power
supplies are required for non-redundant operation. If one power supply in a redundant configuration fails
or is removed, the remaining power supplies assume the entire electrical load without interruption. See
“MX10003 Component Redundancy” on page 23 for more information on power redundancy supported
on the AC and DC powered router. Each power supply is cooled by its own internal cooling system. The
chassis is designed to support N+N mode with feed redundancy, and N+1 mode without feed redundancy.
Redundant power supplies are hot-removable and hot-insertable. When you remove a power supply from
a router that uses only one power supply, the router might shut down depending on your configuration.
CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis.
NOTE: Routers configured with only one power supply are shipped with a blank panel installed
over the power supply slot that is not populated.
Each AC power supply weighs approximately 3.4 lb (1.54 kg) and consists of a handle, an ejector lever, an
g009807
AC appliance inlet, a fan, and an LED to monitor the status of the power supply. Figure 10 on page 36
shows the power supply.
Each inlet requires a dedicated AC power feed and a dedicated customer-site circuit breaker. We recommend
that you use a minimum 15-A (110 VAC) customer-site circuit breaker, or as required by local code.
WARNING: The router is a pluggable type A equipment installed in a restricted-access
location. It has a separate protective earthing terminal (sized for M4 hex screws)
provided on the chassis in addition to the grounding pin of the power supply cord. This
separate protective earthing terminal must be permanently connected to earth.

The DC power supply in PS0 must be powered by a dedicated power feed derived from feed A, and the
DC power supply in PS1 must be powered by a dedicated power feed derived from feed B. This configuration
provides the commonly deployed A/B feed redundancy for the system.
CAUTION: You must ensure that power connections maintain the proper polarity.
The power source cables might be labeled (+) and (–) to indicate their polarity. There
is no standard color coding for DC power cables. The color coding used by the external
DC power source at your site determines the color coding for the leads on the power
cables that attach to the terminal studs on each power supply.
WARNING: For field-wiring connections, use copper conductors only.
CAUTION: Power cords and cables must not block access to device components or
drape where people could trip on them.

The host subsystem provides routing protocol processes, as well as software processes that control the
router’s interface, the chassis components, system management, and user access to the router. These
routing processes run on top of a kernel that interacts with the Packet Forwarding Engine. The MX10003
host subsystem consists of two Routing and Control Boards, or RCBs. The RCB is an integrated board and
a single FRU that provides Routing Engine (RE) and Control Board (CB) functionality. The RE performs all
route-processing functions, whereas the CB performs chassis control and management plane functionality.
The RCB provides control plane functions. You can install one or two RCBs on the router. Each RCB
functions as a unit.
NOTE: Install two RCBs for redundant protection. If you install only one RCB, you can install it
in slot 0 or slot 1. By default, slot 0 functions as the primary.
CAUTION: If one of the RCBs fails, do not remove the failed RCB until you have a
replacement or blank panel to install.
The MX10003 router supports the following RCBs:

The MX10003 router with JNP10003-RE1-LT RCB supports only Junos Limited image. The Junos Limited
image does not have data-plane encryption and is intended only for countries in the Eurasian Customs
Union because these countries have import restrictions on software containing data-plane encryption.
Unlike the Junos Worldwide image, the Junos Limited image supports control plane encryption through
Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), thus allowing secure management of the system. The
Limited Restriction RCB boots only the encryption free Junos software and fails to boot if the fully encrypted
Junos software is used for booting. The Junos upgrade and VMHost upgrade using non-limited version of
Junos software fails on the JNP10003-RE1-LT RCB.
The command show chassis hardware [models | clei-models | extensive] displays the model number and
helps identifying the different SKUs. An alarm, Mixed Master and Backup RE types is displayed when
dissimilar Routing Engines are present on the chassis (see Chassis Alarms).
RCB Interface Ports
The ports located on the RCB, connect the RCB to one or more external devices on which system
administrators can issue Junos OS CLI commands to manage the router. In addition, ports to connect
external clock interfaces for BITS and GPS function are also available on the RCB.
The RCB interface ports with the indicated labels function are as follows (see Figure 16 on page 49):
CON—Connects the RCB to a system console through a serial cable with an RJ-45 connector.
•
MGMT—Connects the RCB through an Ethernet connection to a management LAN (or any other device
•
that plugs into an Ethernet connection) for out-of-band management. The port uses an autosensing
RJ-45 connector to support 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps connections. Two small LEDs (an activity
LED and a link LED) on the port indicate the connection in use.
The link LED is:
lit amber (steady) when the 1000-Mbps link is up.
•
lit green (steady) when the 100-Mbps link is up.
•

MX10003 Router Grounding Specifications
Grounding Points Specifications
To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure proper operation, the
router must be adequately grounded before power is connected. To ground AC-powered and DC-powered
routers, you must connect a grounding cable to earth ground and then attach it to the chassis grounding
points by using the two screws provided.
Figure 18 on page 63 shows the grounding point location on the router.
A protective earthing terminal bracket is required for connecting the chassis to earth ground. This two-holed
bracket attaches on the side of the chassis through the mounting rail and provides a protective earthing
terminal for the switch. The grounding points are studs sized for M4 hex screws. M4 hex screws with
integrated washers are provided in the accessory kit. The grounding points are spaced at 0.75-in. (19.1-mm)
centers.
Two threaded holes are provided on the front right side of the chassis for connecting the router to earth
ground. The grounding points fit M5 pan head screws.
NOTE: Additional grounding is provided to an AC-powered router when you plug its power
supplies into grounded AC power receptacles.

Figure 18: Grounding Points on the Router
1—Grounding point
Grounding Cable Lug Specifications
The accessory box shipped with the router includes one cable lug that attaches to the grounding cable
and M4 hex screws used to secure the grounding cable to the grounding points .
CAUTION: Before router installation begins, a licensed electrician must attach a cable
lug to the grounding and power cables that you supply. A cable with an incorrectly
attached lug can damage the router.
Grounding Cable Specifications
The grounding lug required is a Panduit LCD10-14B-L or equivalent (not provided). The grounding lug
accommodates 14–10 AWG (2–5.3 mm²) stranded wire. The grounding cable that you provide for the
chassis must be the same size or heavier than the input wire of each power supply. Minimum
recommendations are 14–10 AWG (2–5.3 mm²) stranded wire, 60° C wire, or as permitted by local code.

MX10003 Router Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware
Maintenance
When planning the installation site, allow sufficient clearance around the rack (see Figure 19 on page 65):
For the cooling system to function properly, the airflow around the chassis must be unrestricted. Allow
•
at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) of clearance between side-cooled routers. Allow 2.8 in. (7 cm) between the side
of the chassis and any non-heat-producing surface such as a wall.
For service personnel to remove and install hardware components, there must be adequate space at the
•
front and back of the router. At least 24 in. (61 cm) are required both in front of and behind the router.
NEBS GR-63 recommends that you allow at least 30 in. (76.2 cm) in front of the rack and 24 in. (61 cm)
behind the router.
To accommodate power cable bend radius at the rear of the chassis and the interface cable bend radius
•
at the front of the chassis, provide at least 2.75 in. (7 cm) at the rear and 3.5 in. (8.9 cm) at the front.

MX10003 Router Rack Requirements
The router can be installed in a standard 19-in. rack. Many types of racks are acceptable, including four-post
(telco) racks and open-frame racks. Table 24 on page 67 summarizes rack requirements and specifications
for the router.
Table 24: Router Rack Requirements and Specifications
GuidelinesRack Requirement

Rack type and mounting bracket
hole spacing
Use a four-post rack. You can mount the router on any four-post rack that
provides bracket holes or hole patterns spaced at 1 U (1.75-in./4.44-cm)
increments and that meets the size and strength requirements specified in this
table.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and AssociatedEquipment (document number EIA-310–D) published by the Electronics
Components Industry Association (http://www.ecianow.org/).

Rack size and strength
Ensure that the rack is a 19-in. rack as defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and
•
Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310–D) published by the
Electronics Components Industry Association (http://www.ecianow.org/).
Ensure that the rack is one of the following standard lengths:
•
30.0 in. (762 mm)
•
31.5 in. (800 mm)
•
The rack rails must be spaced widely enough to accommodate the router
•
chassis's external dimensions (see “MX10003 Router Physical Specifications”
on page 65). The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width to
19 in. (48.3 cm). The spacing of rails and adjacent racks must also allow for
the clearances around the router and rack that are specified in “MX10003
Router Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance” on
page 64.
The router ships with the front-mounting brackets fixed in the front-mount
•
position on the chassis. You can move the rear-mounting brackets based on
the depth of the rack.
The chassis height of 5.21 in. (13.23 cm) is approximately 3 U (rack unit).
•
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully configured
•
router, up to 164 lb (74.2 kg).
Either end of the router must be mounted flush with the rack and still be
•
adjustable for racks with different depths. The front and rear rack rails must
be spaced between 28 in. (71.1 cm) and 36 in. (91.4 cm) front to back.
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper
•
clearance around the router and rack as specified in “MX10003 Router
Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance” on page 64.

Cabinet size and clearance
The minimum-sized cabinet that can accommodate the router is 19-in. (482-mm)
•
wide, and 30.0-in. (762-mm) deep. A cabinet larger than the minimum
requirement provides better airflow and reduces the chance of overheating. If
you provide adequate cooling air and airflow clearance, you can stack several
routers in a cabinet that has sufficient usable vertical space. Each router requires
3 U.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and AssociatedEquipment (document number EIA-310-D) published by the Electronic
Components Industry Association (ECIA) (http://www.ecianow.org).
With adequate cooling air and airflow clearance, you can stack multiple
•
MX10003 routers in a cabinet with a four-post rack. In all cases, the rack must
meet the strength requirements to support the weight.
The minimum total clearance inside the cabinet is 30.7 in. (780 mm) between
•
the inside of the front door and the inside of the rear door.
Table 25: Cabinet Requirements and Specifications for an MX10003 Router (continued)
Guidelines for the MX10003 RouterCabinet Requirement
70
Cabinet airflow requirements
When you install the router in a cabinet, you must ensure that ventilation through
the cabinet is sufficient to prevent overheating. Consider the following
requirements to when planning for chassis cooling:
Airflow must always be from front to back with respect to the rack. If the device
•
has side to rear airflow, then provisions must be made to ensure that fresh air
from the front of the rack is supplied to the inlets, and exhaust exits from the
rear of the rack. The device must not interfere with the cooling of other systems
in the rack. Fillers must be used as appropriate in the rack to ensure there is
no recirculation of heated exhaust air back to the front of the rack. Care must
also be taken around cables to ensure no leakage of air in situations where
recirculation might result.
Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit from the
•
cabinet without recirculating into the router. An open cabinet (without a top
or doors) that employs hot air exhaust extraction from the top allows the best
airflow through the chassis. If the cabinet contains a top or doors, perforations
in these elements assist with removing the hot air exhaust. For an illustration
of chassis airflow, see Figure 20 on page 71.
Ensure that the cool air supply you provide through the cabinet can adequately
•
dissipate the thermal output of the router.
Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of airflow to and from the
•
chassis.
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper
•
clearance around the router and rack as specified in “MX10003 Router
Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance” on page 64.
Install the router as close as possible to the front of the cabinet so that the
•
chassis just clears the inside of the front door. This maximizes the clearance in
the rear of the cabinet for critical airflow.

Calculating System Thermal Output
After you have calculated the power consumption for your configuration, you can use that information to
determine the system thermal output (BTUs per hour). To do so, multiply the power consumption in watts
by 3.41.
For example, in Table 27 on page 73 we calculated the power consumption for a fully configured chassis
running at high activity, with QSFP28 optics, and JNP-MIC1 at 25° C typical temperature to be 1676 W.
Using that information we can calculate the system thermal output for the configuration:
Power consumption in watts * 3.41 = system thermal output in BTU/hr
1,676 W * 3.41 = 5,715.16 BTU/hr

Calculating Power Budget and Power Margin for Fiber-Optic Cables
Use the information in this topic and the specifications for your optical interface to calculate the power
budget and power margin for fiber-optic cables.
TIP: You can use the Hardware Compatibility Tool to find information about the pluggable
transceivers supported on your Juniper Networks device.
To calculate the power budget and power margin, perform the following tasks:
1.

How to Calculate Power Margin for Fiber-Optic Cable | 76
How to Calculate Power Budget for Fiber-Optic Cable
To ensure that fiber-optic connections have sufficient power for correct operation, you need to calculate
the link's power budget, which is the maximum amount of power it can transmit. When you calculate the
power budget, you use a worst-case analysis to provide a margin of error, even though all the parts of an
actual system do not operate at the worst-case levels. To calculate the worst-case estimate of power
budget (PB), you assume minimum transmitter power (PT) and minimum receiver sensitivity (PR):
76
PB= PT– P
R
The following hypothetical power budget equation uses values measured in decibels (dB) and decibels
referred to one milliwatt (dBm):
PB= PT– P
R
PB= –15 dBm – (–28 dBm)
PB= 13 dB
How to Calculate Power Margin for Fiber-Optic Cable
After calculating a link's power budget, you can calculate the power margin (PM), which represents the
amount of power available after subtracting attenuation or link loss (LL) from the power budget (PB). A
worst-case estimate of PMassumes maximum LL:
PM= PB– LL
PMgreater than zero indicates that the power budget is sufficient to operate the receiver.
Factors that can cause link loss include higher-order mode losses, modal and chromatic dispersion,
connectors, splices, and fiber attenuation. Table 30 on page 76 lists an estimated amount of loss for the
factors used in the following sample calculations. For information about the actual amount of signal loss
caused by equipment and other factors, refer to vendor documentation.

77
Fiber attenuation
Single mode—0.5 dB/km
Multimode—1 dB/km
The following sample calculation for a 2-km-long multimode link with a power budget (PB) of 13 dB uses
the estimated values from Table 30 on page 76 to calculate link loss (LL) as the sum of fiber attenuation
(2 km @ 1 dB/km, or 2 dB) and loss for five connectors (0.5 dB per connector, or 2.5 dB) and two splices
(0.5 dB per splice, or 1 dB) as well as higher-order mode losses (0.5 dB). The power margin (PM) is calculated
as follows:
PM= PB– LL
PM= 13 dB – 2 km (1 dB/km) – 5 (0.5 dB) – 2 (0.5 dB) – 0.5 dB
PM= 13 dB – 2 dB – 2.5 dB – 1 dB – 0.5 dB
PM= 7 dB
The following sample calculation for an 8-km-long single-mode link with a power budget (PB) of 13 dB
uses the estimated values from Table 30 on page 76 to calculate link loss (LL) as the sum of fiber attenuation
(8 km @ 0.5 dB/km, or 4 dB) and loss for seven connectors (0.5 dB per connector, or 3.5 dB). The power
margin (PM) is calculated as follows:
PM= PB– LL
PM= 13 dB – 8 km (0.5 dB/km) – 7(0.5 dB)
PM= 13 dB – 4 dB – 3.5 dB
PM= 5.5 dB
In both examples, the calculated power margin is greater than zero, indicating that the link has sufficient
power for transmission and does not exceed the maximum receiver input power.

Fiber-Optic Cable Signal Loss, Attenuation, and Dispersion
IN THIS SECTION
Signal Loss in Multimode and Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Cable | 79
Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable | 79
Signal Loss in Multimode and Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Cable
Multimode fiber is large enough in diameter to allow rays of light to reflect internally (bounce off the walls
of the fiber). Interfaces with multimode optics typically use LEDs as light sources. However, LEDs are not
coherent sources. They spray varying wavelengths of light into the multimode fiber, which reflects the
light at different angles. Light rays travel in jagged lines through a multimode fiber, causing signal dispersion.
When light traveling in the fiber core radiates into the fiber cladding, higher-order mode loss results.
Together these factors limit the transmission distance of multimode fiber compared with single-mode
fiber.
79
Single-mode fiber is so small in diameter that rays of light can reflect internally through one layer only.
Interfaces with single-mode optics use lasers as light sources. Lasers generate a single wavelength of light,
which travels in a straight line through the single-mode fiber. Compared with multimode fiber, single-mode
fiber has higher bandwidth and can carry signals for longer distances.
Exceeding the maximum transmission distances can result in significant signal loss, which causes unreliable
transmission.
Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable
Correct functioning of an optical data link depends on modulated light reaching the receiver with enough
power to be demodulated correctly. Attenuation is the reduction in power of the light signal as it is
transmitted. Attenuation is caused by passive media components, such as cables, cable splices, and
connectors. Although attenuation is significantly lower for optical fiber than for other media, it still occurs
in both multimode and single-mode transmission. An efficient optical data link must have enough light
available to overcome attenuation.
Dispersion is the spreading of the signal over time. The following two types of dispersion can affect an
optical data link:
Chromatic dispersion—Spreading of the signal over time resulting from the different speeds of light rays.
•
Modal dispersion—Spreading of the signal over time resulting from the different propagation modes in
•
the fiber.
For multimode transmission, modal dispersion, rather than chromatic dispersion or attenuation, usually
limits the maximum bit rate and link length. For single-mode transmission, modal dispersion is not a factor.
However, at higher bit rates and over longer distances, chromatic dispersion rather than modal dispersion
limits maximum link length.
An efficient optical data link must have enough light to exceed the minimum power that the receiver
requires to operate within its specifications. In addition, the total dispersion must be less than the limits
specified for the type of link in Telcordia Technologies document GR-253-CORE (Section 4.3) and
International Telecommunications Union (ITU) document G.957.
When chromatic dispersion is at the maximum allowed, its effect can be considered as a power penalty in
the power budget. The optical power budget must allow for the sum of component attenuation, power
penalties (including those from dispersion), and a safety margin for unexpected losses.

Installing the MX10003 Router in a Rack
To install the router in a four-post rack or a cabinet:
CAUTION: If you are installing more than one router in a rack, install the lowest one
first. Installing a router in an upper position in a rack or cabinet requires a lift.
CAUTION: Before front-mounting the router in a rack, have a qualified technician
verify that the rack is strong enough to support the router's weight and is adequately
supported at the installation site.
CAUTION: Lifting the chassis and mounting it in a rack requires two people (one person
to guide the router in place and a second person to install the screws). A fully loaded
AC-powered router weighs up to 157.4 lb (71.4 kg), while a fully loaded DC-powered
router weighs up to 163.4 lb (74.1 kg).
90
Material handling systems (such as levers, slings, lifts, and so on) must be used to lift
any equipment weighs above 121.2 lb (55 kg). When this is not practical, specially
trained persons or systems must be used (riggers or movers).
1. Position the router in front of the four-post rack or the cabinet.
2. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
3. Using a Phillips (+) number 2 screwdriver, remove the screw on each side of the chassis that holds the
rear-mounting brackets, and slide the brackets out of the chassis (see Figure 21 on page 91). Keep the
brackets safely to be used in later stage.
The rear-mounting brackets on each side of the chassis are movable. You can adjust the brackets
according to the depth of the rack. However, the front-mounting brackets on each side of the chassis
are fixed to the chassis.
Figure 21: Removing the Rear-Mounting Brackets
4. Install the cable management brackets on each side of the front of the chassis, and secure each bracket
with screws at the bottom and top of the bracket (see Figure 22 on page 91).
Figure 22: Installing the Cable Management Brackets
91
5. With one person on each side, hold on to the bottom of the chassis and carefully lift it so that the
mounting brackets contact the rack rails.
6. Carefully slide the router onto the mounting brackets until the front-mounting brackets attached to
the chassis contact the rack rails (see Figure 23 on page 92). The mounting brackets ensure that the
holes in the front-mounting brackets attached to the chassis align with the holes in the rack rails.
Figure 23: Installing the Router in a Four-Post Rack
g009844
g009845
7. Install mounting screws into each of the open front-mounting holes aligned with the rack, starting from
the bottom, and secure them tightly.
8. On the rear of the chassis, slide the rear-mounting brackets on either side of the chassis until the
rear-mounting brackets contact the rack rails.
92
9. Install mounting screws into each of the open rear-mounting holes aligned with the rack, starting from
the bottom, and secure them tightly.
10. Visually inspect the alignment of the chassis. If the chassis is installed properly in the rack, all the
mounting screws on one side of the rack are aligned with the mounting screws on the opposite side
and the router is level. Figure 24 on page 92 shows the router fully secured and installed in a four-post
rack.
Figure 24: Router Installed in the Rack
11. Install the air filter unit. See “Replacing the MX10003 Air Filter Unit” on page 118.

Grounding the MX10003 Router
You ground the router by connecting a grounding cable to earth ground and then attaching it to the chassis
grounding points by using two M5 pan head screws. Figure 25 on page 95 shows the grounding point
location on the chassis. You must provide the grounding cables (the cable lugs are supplied with the router).
For grounding cable specifications, see “MX10003 Router Grounding Specifications” on page 62.
Figure 25: Grounding Points on the MX10003 Router
95
1—Grounding point
To ground the router:
1. Verify that a licensed electrician has attached the cable lug provided with the router to the grounding
cable.
2. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to
an approved site ESD grounding point. See the instructions for your site.
3. Ensure that all grounding surfaces are clean and brought to a bright finish before grounding connections
are made.
4. Connect the grounding cable to a proper earth ground.
5. Detach the ESD grounding strap from the site ESD grounding point.
6. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on
the chassis.
7. Place the grounding cable lug over the grounding points on the chassis.
8. Secure the grounding cable lug with the screws. The holes are sized for M5 pan head screws (see
Figure 26 on page 96).
9. Dress the grounding cable, and verify that it does not touch or block access to router components, and
that it does not drape where people could trip on it.

Connecting Power to an AC-Powered MX10003 Router
CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies within the same router. Damage
to the router might occur.
You connect AC power to the router by attaching power cords from the AC power sources to the AC
appliance inlets located on the power supplies.
To connect the AC power cords to the router for each power supply:
1. Locate power cords that have a plug appropriate for your geographic location. For more information,
see “AC Power Cord Specifications for MX10003 Routers” on page 39.
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on
the chassis.
3. Power off the AC input appliance inlet on the power supply.
4. Connect the power cord to the power supply.
5. Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle (see Figure 27 on page 98).
97
NOTE: Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power feed and a dedicated
customer-site circuit breaker. We recommend that you use a dedicated customer-site circuit
breaker rated for 15 A (110 VAC) minimum, or as required by local code.
6. Route the power cord appropriately. Verify that the power cord does not block the air exhaust and
access to router components, or drape where people could trip on it.
7. Power on the power supply at source.
8. Repeat Step 1 through Step 7 for the installing the remaining power supply.

Connecting Power to a DC-Powered MX10003 Router
CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supply modules within the same router.
Damage to the router might occur.
WARNING: Before performing DC power procedures, ensure that power is removed
from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit breaker on the
panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the off position,
and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the off position.
You connect DC power to the router by attaching power cables from the external DC power sources to
the terminal on the power supply faceplate. You must provide the power cables (the cable lugs are supplied
with the router). For power cable specifications, see “DC Power Cable Specifications for MX10003 Router”
on page 45.
To connect the DC source power cables to the router for each power supply:
1. Switch off the dedicated customer-site circuit breakers. Ensure that the voltage across the DC power
source cable leads is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cable leads might become active during
installation.
2. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other
end of the strap to an ESD point.
3. Verify that the DC power cables are correctly labeled before making connections to the power supply.
In a typical power distribution scheme where the return is connected to chassis ground at the battery
plant, you can use a multimeter to verify the resistance of the –48V and RTN DC cables to chassis
ground:
The cable with very large resistance (indicating an open circuit) to chassis ground is –48V.
•
The cable with very low resistance (indicating a closed circuit) to chassis ground is RTN.
•

CAUTION: You must ensure that power connections maintain the proper polarity.
The power source cables might be labeled (+) and (–) to indicate their polarity. There
is no standard color coding for DC power cables. The color coding used by the
external DC power source at your site determines the color coding for the leads
on the power cables that attach to the terminal studs on each power supply.
4. Remove the nuts from the terminals.
5. Secure each power cable lug to the terminal with the nuts (see Figure 28 on page 100). Apply between
5 lb-in. (0.6 Nm) and 6 lb-in. (0.7 Nm) of torque to the nuts. Do not overtighten the nuts. (Use a socket
nutdriver.)
a. Secure the positive (+) DC source power cable lug to the RTN (return) terminal.
b. Secure the negative (–) DC source power cable lug to the –48V (input) terminal.
CAUTION: Ensure that each power cable lug seats flush against the surface of the
terminal block as you are tightening the nuts. Ensure that each nut is properly
threaded into the terminal. Applying installation torque to the nuts when improperly
threaded can result in damage to the terminal.
CAUTION: You must ensure that power connections maintain the proper polarity.
The power source cables might be labeled (+) and (–) to indicate their polarity. There
is no standard color coding for DC power cables. The color coding used by the
external DC power source at your site determines the color coding for the leads
on the power cables that attach to the terminal studs on each power supply.
NOTE: For information about connecting to DC power sources, see “MX10003 Router DC
Power Specifications” on page 43.
6. Verify that the power cables are connected correctly, that they are not touching or blocking access to
router components, and that they do not drape where people could trip on them.
