QFX3600 Device Overview
The Juniper Networks QFX3600 device is a high-speed, multipurpose switch especially
designed for next-generation data centers. The QFX3600 device can be configured as:
•
A standalone switch
•
A Node device in a QFX3000-M or QFX3000-G QFabric system
•
An Interconnect device in a QFX3000-M QFabric system
•
A member in a QFX Virtual Chassis
•
A leaf node in a QFX5100 Virtual Chassis Fabric (VCF)
Sixteen40-Gbps ports in the device use quad small form-factorpluggable plus (QSFP+)
transceivers. The small form-factor and front facing ports in the switch make it suitable
fordeployment in high-density serverracks and container-baseddata center deployments.
In a QFX3000-G QFabric system, the QFX3600 device can operate as a Node device
through the 40-Gbps uplinks ports to a Juniper Networks QFX3008-I Interconnectdevice.
On a QFX3000-M QFabric device, the QFX3600 can be configured to operate as either
a Node device or as a QFX3600-I Interconnectdevice. When configured as a Node device
in a QFX3000-M QFabric system, , the QFX3600 device can connect to either a
QFX3600-I Interconnect device to a QFX5100-24Q through the 40-Gbps uplink
ports.Together, the QFX3600 Node devices and Interconnect devices form a multistage,
nonblocking switch fabric that provides a high-performance, low-latency, unified
interconnect solution for next-generation data centers.
The QFX3600 Node devices and QFX3008-I or QFX3600-I Interconnect devices are
connected to Juniper Networks QFX3100 Director devices in a control plane and
managementnetwork. The QFX3100 Director device presents the QFabric system devices

as a single network entity, allowing for simplified management of your data center using
the Junos OS command-line interface (CLI).
In a QFX Virtual Chassis, the QFX3600 device can participatewith other QFX3600 devices
or QFX3500 devices in a ring topology with up to 10 members.
In a QFX5100 Virtual Chassis Fabric, the QFX3600 device can participate as a leafdevice.
Up to a total of 32 devices can participate in the Virtual Chassis Fabric.

Software
QFX Series devices use the Junos operating system (OS), which provides Layer 2 and
Layer 3 switching, routing, and security services. Junos OS is installed on the QFX3600
device’s 8-gigabyte (GB) internal flash drive. The same Junos OS code base that runs
on QFX Series devices also runs on all Juniper Networks EX Series, J Series, M Series, MX
Series, and T Series devices.
Hardware
For more information about which features are supported on QFX Series devices, see
Feature Explorer.
When the QFX3600 device is operating as a standalone switch, you manage the switch
using the Junos OS command-line interface (CLI), accessible through the console and
out-of-band management ports on the device.
When a QFX Series device operates as part of a QFabric system, all the devices in the
data center fabric are managed through the Administrator software installed on the
QFX3100 Director devices. Each device in a QFabric system is interconnected in a single
control plane and management network, using the redundant management ports on
each device.
The compact QFX3600 chassis is 1 rack unit (1 U) in size and designed to fit in
industry-standard 19-inch rack-mount enclosures, as well as high-density server racks
and container-based data center deployments. See Figure 1 on page 5 and
Figure 2 on page 5 and “Chassis Physical Specifications for QFX3600 and QFX3600-I
Devices” on page 17.

The front panel of the QFX3600 chassis has an LCD panel that displays the device
hostname and the number of active alarms. It also has sixteen 40-Gbps ports labeled
Q0 through Q15 thatsupport quad small form-factorpluggableplus (QSFP+) transceivers.
See “Front Panel of a QFX3600 Device” on page 19.
If you are using the QFX3600 device as a Node device in a QFabric system, by default,
four ports (labeled Q0 through C3) are configured for uplink connections between your
QFX3600 Node device and your Interconnect device, and twelve ports (labeled Q4
through Q15) support 48 10-Gigabit Ethernet or 12 40-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for
connectionsto either endpoint systems(such as servers and storagedevices)or external
networks.Optionally,you can choose to configure the first eight ports (labeled Q0 through
Q7) for uplink connections between your QFX3600 Node device and your Interconnect
device and ports Q2 through Q15 for 10-Gigabit Ethernet or 40-Gigabit Ethernet
connections to either endpoint systems or external networks. See Configuring the Port
Type on QFX3600 Node Devices and “Determining Interface Support for the QFX3600
Device” on page 55.
If you are using the QFX3600 device as a standalone switch, by default, all 16 QSFP+
ports (Q0 through Q15) are configured as 40-Gigabit Ethernet (xle) ports. Optionally,
you can choose to configure each port to operate as 10-Gigabit Ethernet (xe) ports. Port
00 is unique because the number of ports you can specify as 10-Gigabit Ethernet varies
by Junos OS release. In some Junos OS releases, port 00 has a reserved port and in other

releases, the port is available. See the topics on channelizing interfaces or configuring
the port type for your specific software release.
The rear panel of the QFX3600 chassis has two redundant power supplies and three
redundant fan trays that are field-replaceable and hot-swappable. See “Rear Panel of
QFX3600 and QFX3600-I Devices” on page 21.

Understanding Redundancy of QFX3600 and QFX3600-I Components and Functionality
The following hardware components provide redundancy on QFX3600 and QFX3600-I
devices:
•
Power supplies—QFX3600 and QFX3600-I devices have two power supplies. Each
power supply provides power to all components in the device. The two power supplies
provide full power redundancy to the device. If one power supply fails or is removed,
the second power supply balances the electrical load without interruption.
To provide power redundancy to the system both power supplies must be installed.
Connect power source feed A to one power supply and power source feed B to the
second power supply.
CAUTION: Do not connect feed A and feed B to the same power supply
input terminal.
•
Cooling system—QFX3600and QFX3600-I devices havethree fan trays.If a fan module
on a fan tray fails and is unable to keep the QFX3600 device within the desired
temperature thresholds, chassis alarms occur and the device may shut down.

Understanding QFX Series Virtual Chassis
This topic discusses QFX Series Virtual Chassis. A QFX Series Virtual Chassis is a supported
combination of interconnected QFX3500, QFX3600, QFX5100, QFX5110, and EX4300
switches operating as one logical device and managed as a single chassis. Switches in
a Virtual Chassis are called members of the Virtual Chassis.

QFX Virtual Chassis Overview
A QFX Series Virtual Chassis is a flexible, scaling switch solution for supported
combinationsof QFX3500, QFX3600,QFX5100,and QFX5110 switches. EX4300 switches
can also be included in some configurations of a QFX Series Virtual Chassis..
In a QFX Series Virtual Chassis, you can interconnect up to ten standalone switches in
the following combinations into one logical device, and manage the logical device as a
single chassis:
Chapter 1: System Overview
•

Virtual Chassis)
•
QFX5100 switches (a non-mixed Virtual Chassis)
•

switches (a non-mixed Virtual Chassis)
•
QFX3500 or QFX3600 switches with EX4300 switches, or a combination of all three
types of switches (a mixed mode Virtual Chassis)
The advantages of connecting multiple switches into a Virtual Chassis include
better-managed bandwidth at a networklayer, simplified configurationand maintenance
because multiple devices can be managed as a single device, increased fault tolerance
and high availability(HA) because a Virtual Chassis can remain active and network traffic
can be redirected to other member switches when a single member switch fails, and a
flatter, simplified Layer 2 network topology that minimizes or eliminates the need for
loop prevention protocols such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
You set up a Virtual Chassis by configuring Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs) on the member
switches, and interconnecting the switches using the VCPs . VCPs are responsible for
passing all data and control traffic between member switches in theVirtual Chassis. The
following ports on QFX Series switches that support Virtual Chassis can be configured
into VCPs to form a QFX Series Virtual Chassis:
•
Any 100-Gbps or 40-Gbps QSFP28 ports on QFX5110 switches
•
Any non-channelized 40-Gbps QSFP+ ports on QFX3500, QFX3600, QFX5100, or
QFX5110 switches

•
Any fixed 10-Gbps SFP+ ports on QFX Series switches with these ports
See EX4300 Switches Hardware Overview for details on the ports on an EX4300 switch
that can be configured into VCPs in a QFX Series Virtual Chassis.
You can increase VCP bandwidth between member switches by configuring multiple
interfaces between the same two switches into VCPs. When multiple VCPs interconnect
the same two member switches, a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) or bundle is
automatically formed when the VCPs are on interfaces supporting identical speeds. For
example, if you have two 40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces configured as VCPs between
member switches, a LAG with two member links with 80Gbps of total bandwidth is
formed. However, 10-Gbps SFP+ and 40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces configured as VCPs
will not become members of the same VCP LAG.
QFX5110 Switches in a Virtual Chassis
Starting in Junos OS Release 17.3R1, Virtual Chassis is supported on QFX5110 switches.
You can interconnect up to ten QFX5110 switches or a combination of QFX5110 and

Virtual Chassis Ports (VCPs)
You set up a Virtual Chassis by configuring Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs) on the member
switches, and interconnecting the switches using the VCPs. VCPs are responsible for
passing all data and control traffic between member switches in the Virtual Chassis.
The following options are available for configuring VCPs on the switches in a QFX Series
Virtual Chassis:
•
Any 100-Gbps or 40-Gbps QSFP28 ports on QFX5110 switches can be configured into
VCPs.
•
Any non-channelized 40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces on QFX3500, QFX3600, QFX5100,
and QFX5110 switches can be configured into VCPs.
•
40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces that have been channelized into SFP+ interfaces using a
breakout cable cannot be configured into VCPs, but all other non-channelized SFP+
interfaces on QFX series switches can be configured into VCPs, and can also be used
to interconnect EX4300 switches into a mixed QFX and EX Series Virtual Chassis.
Chapter 1: System Overview
You can increase VCP bandwidth between member switches by configuring multiple
interfaces between the same two switches into VCPs. When multiple VCPs interconnect
the same two member switches, a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) or bundle is
automatically formed when the VCPs are on interfaces supporting identical speeds. For
example, if you have two 40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces configured as VCPs between
member switches, a LAG with two member links with 80-Gbps of total bandwidth is
formed. However, 10-Gigabit SFP+ and 40-Gbps QSFP+ interfaces configured as VCPs
will not become members of the same LAG. See Understanding Virtual Chassis Port Link
Aggregation.
Maximum Switch Support
In a QFX Series Virtual Chassis, you can interconnect up to 10 standalone switches in the
following supported combinations:
•
QFX5110 switches or a combination of QFX5110 switches and QFX5100 switches (a
non-mixed Virtual Chassis)
•
QFX5100 switches (a non-mixed Virtual Chassis)
•
QFX5100 switches with any combinationof QFX3500, QFX3600,or EX4300 switches
(a mixed mode Virtual Chassis)
•

QFX3600 Device Hardware Documentation
Master Routing Engine Role
In a Virtual Chassis, each member switch is assigned one of two roles: Routing Engine or
linecard, and for Routing Engine role, receives a further designation as the master or
backup Routing Engine.
Themember that functions as the masterin the Routing Engine role in the Virtual Chassis:
•
Manages the member switches.
•
Runs Junos OS for the switches as a master Routing Engine.
•
Runs the chassis management processes and control protocols.
NOTE: In Junos OS release13.2X51-D20, you can interconnect only up to four
QFX5100-96S switches in a non-mixed QFX5100 Virtual Chassis. Starting
in Junos OS release 13.2X51-D25, you can configure up to ten QFX5100-96S
switches into a mixed or non-mixed QFX5100 Virtual Chassis.
•
Represents all the member switches interconnected within the Virtual Chassis
configuration.(The hostname and other properties that you assign to this switch during
setup apply to all members of the Virtual Chassis configuration.)
In a preprovisioned configuration, one of the two members assigned as routing-engine
functions as the master member. The selection of which member assigned as
routing-engine functions as master and which as backup is determined by the software
based on the master election algorithm. See Understanding How the Master in a Virtual
Chassis Is Elected.
In a configuration that is not preprovisioned, the selection of the master and backup is
determined by the mastership priority value and secondary factorsin the master election
algorithm.
All switches that are not assigned the master or backup Routing Engine role function in
the linecard role.
In a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis with QFX5110 and QFX5100 switches, we recommend
configuring only QFX5110 switches into the Routing Engine role.
In a mixed QFX Series Virtual Chassis made up of QFX5100 switches with QFX3500,
QFX3600, or EX4300 switches, we recommend configuring QFX5100 switches into the
Routing Engine role. If the mixed Virtual Chassis does not contain QFX5100 switches, we
recommend configuring QFX3500 or QFX3600 switches into the Routing Engine role.
Backup Routing Engine Role
The member that functions in the backup Routing Engine role in a Virtual Chassis:
•
Maintains a stateof readiness to take over the master Routing Engine role if the master
fails.
•
Runs Junos OS for the switches as a backup Routing Engine.
Copyright © 2017, Juniper Networks, Inc.12
Chapter 1: System Overview
•
Synchronizeswith the master in terms of protocol states, forwarding tables, and other
information,so that it is prepared to preserve routing information and maintain network
connectivity without disruption in case the master is unavailable.
You must have at least two member switches in the Virtual Chassis configuration in order
to have a backup Routing Engine member.
In a preprovisioned configuration, one of the two members assigned as routing-engine
functions in the backup role. The selection of which member assigned as routing-engine
functions as master and which as backup is determined by the software based on the
master election algorithm. See Understanding How the Master in a Virtual Chassis Is
Elected.
In a configuration that is not preprovisioned, the selection of the master and backup is
determined by the mastership priority value and secondary factorsin the master election
algorithm.
In a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis with QFX5110 and QFX5100 switches, we recommend
configuring only QFX5110 switches into the Routing Engine role.
Linecard Role
In a mixed QFX Series Virtual Chassis made up of QFX5100 switches with QFX3500,
QFX3600, or EX4300 switches, we recommend configuring the QFX5100 switches into
the Routing Engine role. If the mixed Virtual Chassis does not contain QFX5100 switches,
we recommend configuringQFX3500 or QFX3600 switches into the Routing Engine role.
A member that functions in the linecard role in a Virtual Chassis:
•
Runs only a subset of Junos OS.
•
Does not run the chassis control protocols.
•
Can detect certain error conditions (such as an unplugged cable) on any interfaces
that have been configured on it through the master.
The Virtual Chassis configuration must have at least three members in order to include
a linecard member.
In a preprovisioned configuration, you can explicitly configure a member with the linecard
role, which makes it ineligible for functioning as a master or backup Routing Engine.
In a configurationthat is not preprovisioned,the members that are not selectedas master
or backup function as linecard members of the Virtual Chassis configuration.The selection
of the master and backup is determined by the mastership priority value and secondary
factors in the masterelection algorithm. A switch with a mastership priority of 0 is always
in the linecard role.
Any switch can function in the linecard role in a mixed or non-mixed Virtual Chassis.
In a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis made up of QFX5110 and QFX5100 switches,we recommend
configuring only QFX5110 switches into the Routing Engine role.

QFX3600 Device Hardware Documentation
In a mixed QFX Series Virtual Chassis made up of QFX5100 switches with QFX3500,
QFX3600, or EX4300 switches, we recommend configuring the QFX5100 switches into
the Routing Engine role. If the mixed Virtual Chassis does not contain QFX5100 switches,
we recommend configuringQFX3500 or QFX3600 switches into the Routing Engine role.
Member Switch and Member ID
Each standalone switch that supports Virtual Chassis is a potential member of a Virtual
Chassis configuration. When one of those switches is powered on, it receives a member
ID that can be seen by viewing the front-panel LCD or by entering the show virtual-chassis
command. If the switch is powered on as a standalone switch, that member’s member
ID is always0. When the switch is interconnectedwith other switches in a Virtual Chassis
configuration, its member ID is assigned by the master based on various factors, such as
the order in which the switch was added to the Virtual Chassis configuration or the
member ID assigned by a preprovisionedconfiguration.See Understanding How the Master
in a Virtual Chassis Is Elected.
If the Virtual Chassis configuration previously included a member switch and that member
was physically disconnected or removed from the Virtual Chassis configuration, its
member ID is not availablefor assignment as part of the standard sequential assignment
by the master. For example, you might have a Virtual Chassis configuration composed
of member 0, member 2, and member 3, because member 1 was removed. When you
add another member switch and power it on, the master assigns it as member 4.
Mastership Priority
Themember ID distinguishes the member switches fromone another.You use the member
ID:
•
To assign a mastership priority value to a member switch
•
To configure interfaces for a member switch (The function is similar to that of a slot
number on Juniper Networks routers.)
•
To apply some operational commands to a member switch
•
To display status or characteristics of a member switch
In a configurationthat is not preprovisioned,youcan designate the role (master or backup
RoutingEngine, or linecard) that a member switch assumes by configuring its mastership
priority (from 0 through 255). The mastership priority value is the factor in the master
election algorithm with the highest precedence for selecting the master of the Virtual
Chassis configuration. A switch with a mastership priority of 0 never assumes the backup
or master Routing Engine role.
The default value for mastership priority is 128. When a standalone switch is powered
on, it receives the default mastership priority value. Because it is the only member of the
Virtual Chassis configuration, it is also the master. When you interconnect a standalone
switch to an existing Virtual Chassis configuration (which implicitly includes its own
master), we recommend that you explicitly configure the mastership priority of the
members that you want to function as the master and backup.
Copyright © 2017, Juniper Networks, Inc.14
In a preprovisioned configuration, you assign the role of each member switch.

Cooling System and Airflow for QFX3600 and QFX3600-I Devices
The cooling systemin QFX3600and QFX3600-I devices consistof three field-replaceable
unit (FRU) fan trays with two fan modules each (see Figure 8 on page 27). In addition,
the power supplies have internal fans to cool themselves.
Figure 8: Fan Tray for QFX3600 and QFX3600-I Devices
The fan tray provides FRU-to-port or port-to-FRU airflow depending on the SKU you
purchase. Table 9 on page 28 lists the different QFX3600 and QFX3600-I SKUs and
their direction of airflow.
NOTE: In QFX Series device model names, AFI, or airflow in, describes
FRU--to-port airflow. AFO, or airflow out, describes port-to-FRU airflow.
NOTE: The rear panel of the device where the power supplies and fan trays
are located is the FRU side of the device.

The chassis includes a fan speed-control system. Under normal operating conditions,
fans operate at reduced speed to reduce noise and power consumption.
Temperature sensors in the chassis monitor the temperature within the chassis. The
system raises an alarm if a fan fails or if the temperature inside the chassis rises above
permitted levels. If the temperature inside the chassis rises above the threshold, the
device shuts down automatically. You can see the status of fans and the temperature
remotely through the CLI by issuing the operational mode command show chassis
environment.
You cannot replace a single fan module. If one or more fan modules fail, you must replace
the entire fan tray.

Use a two-post or a four-post rack. You can mount the switch on any two-post or four-post rack
that provides bracket holes or hole patterns spaced at 1 U (1.75 in./4.45 cm) increments and that
meets the size and strength requirements to support the weight.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document
number EIA-310–D) published by the Electronics Industry Association (http://www.eia.org).
The holes in the mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm), so that the switch can
be mounted in any rack that provides holes spaced at that distance.
•
Ensure that the rack complies with the standards for a 19-in. rack as defined in Cabinets, Racks,
Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310–D) published by the Electronics
Industry Association.
•
Ensure that the rack rails are spaced widely enough to accommodate the device chassis’ external
dimensions. The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width to 19.2 in. (48.8 cm).
•
On four-post racks, the front and rear rack rails must be spaced between 19.3 in. (49 cm) and
36 in. (91.4 cm) front-to-back.
•
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the device.
•
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for proper clearance around the device
and rack.
•
Secure the rack to the building structure.
•
If earthquakes are a possibility in your geographical area, secure the rack to the floor.
•
Secure the rack to the ceiling brackets as well as wall or floor brackets for maximum stability.

Documentation
The minimum cabinet size for accommodating a QFX3600 device is 28 in. (71.1 cm) deep. Large
cabinets improve airflow and reduce the chance of overheating.
When you mount the device in a cabinet, ensure that ventilation through the cabinet is sufficient to
prevent overheating.
•
Ensure that the cool air supply you provide through the cabinet adequately dissipates the thermal
output of the device (or devices).
•
Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit the cabinet without recirculating
into the device. 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.
•
The device fans exhaust hot air through the rear of the chassis. Install the device in the cabinet in
a way that maximizes the open space on the fan tray side of the chassis. This maximizes the
clearance for critical airflow.
•
Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of airflow to and from the chassis.
•
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent cabinets allows for the proper clearance around the
device and cabinet.

Understanding QFX Series Fiber-Optic Cable Signal Loss, Attenuation, and Dispersion
To determine the power budget and power margin needed for fiber-optic connections,
you need to understand how signal loss, attenuation,and dispersion affect transmission.
The QFX Series uses various types of network cables, including multimode and
single-mode fiber-optic cables.
•
Signal Loss in Multimode and Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Cables on page 59
•
Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable on page 60
Signal Loss in Multimode and Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Cables
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 light sources. They spray varying
wavelengths of light into the multimode fiber, which reflect 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 (layers of lower
refractive index material in close contact with a core material of higher refractive index),
higher-order mode loss occurs. Together,these factors reduce the transmission distance
of multimode fiber compared to that of single-mode fiber.
Single-mode fiber is so small in diameter that rays of light reflect internally through one
layeronly. Interfaces with single-mode optics use lasers as light sources. Lasers generate
59Copyright © 2017, Juniper Networks, Inc.
QFX3600 Device Hardware Documentation
a single wavelength of light, which travelsin a straight line through the single-mode fiber.
Compared to multimode fiber, single-mode fiber has a higher bandwidth and can carry
signals for longer distances. It is consequently more expensive.
For information about the maximum transmission distance and supported wavelength
range for the types of single-mode and multimode fiber-optic cables that are connected
to the QFX Series, see the Hardware Compatibility Tool . Exceeding the maximum
transmission distances can result in significant signal loss, which causes unreliable
transmission.
Attenuation and Dispersion in Fiber-Optic Cable
An optical data link functions correctlyprovided that modulatedlight reachingthe receiver
has enough power to be demodulated correctly. Attenuation is the reduction in strength
of the light signal during transmission. Passive media components such as cables, cable
splices, and connectors cause attenuation. 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 transmit enough light to overcome
attenuation.
Dispersion is the spreading of the signal over time. The following two types of dispersion
can affect signal transmission through an optical data link:
•
Chromatic dispersion, which is the spreading of the signal over time caused by the
different speeds of light rays.
•
Modal dispersion, which is the spreading of the signal over time caused by 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 ratesand over longer
distances, chromatic dispersion limits the 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 within the limits specified for the type of link in the 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.

Chapter 7: Transceiver and Cable Specifications
Calculating the Fiber-Optic Cable Power Budget for a QFX Series Device
Calculate the link's power budget when planning fiber-optic cable layout and distances
to ensure that fiber-optic connections have sufficient power for correct operation. The
powerbudget is the maximum amount of power the link 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 for the fiber-optic cable power budget (PB) for the
link:
1. Determinevalues for the link's minimum transmitter power (P
) and minimum receiver
T
sensitivity (PR). For example, here, (PT) and (PR) are measuredin decibels, and decibels
are referenced to 1 milliwatt (dBm):
PT= –15 dBm
PR= –28 dBm
NOTE: See the specifications for your transmitter and receiver to find the
minimum transmitter power and minimum receiver sensitivity.
2. Calculate the power budget (P
B
) by subtracting (PR) from (PT):
–15 dBm – (–28 dBm) = 13 dBm

Calculating the Fiber-Optic Cable Power Margin for a QFX Series Device
Calculate the link's power margin when planning fiber-optic cable layout and distances
to ensure that fiber-optic connections have sufficient signal power to overcome system
losses and still satisfy the minimum input requirements of the receiver for the required
performance level. The power margin (PM) is the amount of power available after
attenuation or link loss (LL) has been subtracted from the power budget (PB).
When you calculate the power margin, 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 worst-case
levels.A powermargin (PM) greater than zero indicatesthat the power budgetis sufficient
to operate the receiver and that it does not exceed the maximum receiver input power.
This means the link will work. A (PM) that is zero or negative indicates insufficient power
to operate the receiver. See the specification for your receiver to find the maximum
receiver input power.
