MX10004 Transceiver and Cable Specifications
SUMMARY
Your transceiver and network cable plan for the
MX10004 router must take into consideration the
fiber-optic cables you can use, including connector
details and pinouts. For optimal router function, your
site must meet cable power requirements and
mitigate cable signal loss, attenuation, and
dispersion.

MX10004 Optical Transceiver and Cable Support
You can find information about the pluggable transceivers supported on your Juniper Networks device
by using the Hardware Compatibility Tool. In addition to transceiver and connector type, compatibility
tool documents the optical and cable characteristics—where applicable—for each transceiver. The
Hardware Compatibility Tool enables you to search by product, displaying all the transceivers supported
on that device (or category) by interface speed or type. The list of supported transceivers for the
MX10004 is located at

CAUTION: The Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC) provides
complete support for Juniper-supplied optical modules and cables. However, JTAC does
not provide support for third-party optical modules and cables that are not qualified or
supplied by Juniper Networks. If you face a problem running a Juniper device that uses
third-party optical modules or cables, JTAC may help you diagnose host-related issues if
the observed issue is not, in the opinion of JTAC, related to the use of the third-party
optical modules or cables. Your JTAC engineer will likely request that you check the
