See the topic on Channelizing Interfaces for your Junos Release.
If your QFX3500 device has an SFP management board instead of the 1000BASE-T
RJ-45 management board, you can use the SFP transceivers to connect the QFX3500
device to a management network, or the control plane and management network of a
QFabric system. The 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet SFP module (QFX-SFP-1GE-SX)
is supported in the SFP management ports in the following software releases:
•
Junos OS 12.1X49-D1 or later for the QFX3500 device as a standalone switch
•
Junos OS 12.2X50-D10 or later for the QFX3500 Node device in a QFabric system
You can find information about the optical transceivers supported on your Juniper device
by using the Hardware Compatibility Tool. In addition to transceiver and connection type,
the optical and cable characteristics–where applicable–are documented 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 QFX3500 is located at
https://pathfinder.juniper.net/hct/product/#prd=QFX3500.
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 recommendthat you check the third-party opticor cableand potentially
replace it with an equivalent Juniper Networks optic or cable that is qualified
for the device.

Cable Specifications for QSFP+ and QSFP28 Transceivers
The 40-Gigabit Ethernet QSFP+ and 100-Gigabit Ethernet QSFP28 transceivers that are
used in QFX Series and EX4600 switches use 12-ribbon multimode fiber crossover cables
with female MPO/UPC connectors. The fiber can be either OM3 or OM4. These cables
are not sold by Juniper Networks.
