Juniper MX10004 - How to Store a Switch Fabric Board

The proper method of holding an SFB is to:
1. Hold the SFB by the ejectors while keeping the SFB vercal, and slide the SFB about three-quarters
of the way out of the chassis.
2. Place one hand underneath the SFB to support it and slide it completely out of the chassis.
CAUTION: Hold the SFB by the ejectors. Never hold the SFB by the connector edge.
The connectors are fragile and the SFB won’t align and seat properly if the connector is
damaged.
CAUTION: Keep SFBs separate. Don’t stack SFBs on top of one another or on top of
any other component.
How to Store a Switch Fabric Board
You must store Juniper Networks Switch Fabric Boards (SFBs) either in the chassis or in a spare shipping
container, horizontally, and sheet-metal side down. Do not stack these units on top of one another or on
top of any other component. Place each unit separately in an anstac bag or on an anstac mat
placed on a at, stable surface.
NOTE: We recommend that two people insert the SFB into the bag because these units are
heavy and anstac bags are fragile.
NOTE: The JNP10004-SF2 SFBs are shipped with protecve plasc covers on the fabric
interface connectors. The plasc covers keep the connectors clean and free of dust and other
parcles. When you remove JNP10004-SF2 SFB from the router, re-insert the protecve plasc
covers on the fabric interface connectors and then place the SFB in an anstac bag or on an
anstac mat placed on a at, stable surface.
To store an SFB in an anstac bag if two people are available to li the unit:
1. Hold the unit horizontally with the faceplate toward you.
2. Slide the opening of the bag over the connector edge.
To store an SFB in an anstac bag if you must insert the SFB into a bag by yourself:
