CAUTION: If you face a problem running a Juniper Networks device that uses a third-party
optic or cable, the Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC) can help you
diagnose the source of the problem. Your JTAC engineer might recommend that you
check the third-party optic or cable and potentially replace it with an equivalent Juniper
Networks optic or cable that is qualified for the device.
