Installing and Removing QFX5100 Device Hardware Components
The QFX5100 switch chassis is a rigid sheet-metal structure that houses the hardware components. The
field-replaceable units (FRUs) in QFX5100 devices are:
•
Power supply
•
Fan module
•
Expansion module (QFX5100-24Q and QFX5100-24Q-AA only)
•
SFP+ transceiver
•
QSFP+ transceiver
All of the QFX5100 device FRUs are hot-insertable and hot-removable: you can remove and replace them
without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions.
CAUTION: Replace a failed power supply with a new power supply within 1 minute
of removal to prevent chassis overheating. Replace a failed fan module with a new fan
within 1 minute of removal to prevent chassis overheating.
