Basically, the CF cards for each of the packages have been exclusively qualified for each type of RE & hence the presence of different upgrade kits.
For instance, If you look at the upgrade kits, you can use the kit CF-UPG2-1G-S for RE-400 and RE-850, which is for M7i and M10i. The CF card will be interchangeable on these two RE types. The kit CF-UPG3-1G-S is for RE-600 and RE-1600. These RE's are present on M5,M10,M20,M40,M40e,M160,T320,T640,TX,M320 respectively. So the CF cards are interchangeable amongst these routing platforms, provided the customer has the respective Routing engine models. And hence its recommended to use Juniper CF for above platforms. However for J-series, third party CFs are supported.. details below: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/jseries/junos90/rn-jseries-90/s upported-third-party-hardware.html Hope it helps!

The system will recognize CFs from other sources though. I believe the serial comes up as NON-JNPR or somesuch when you look at the chassis hardware output.

I used Sandisk 2GB Ultra II 15MB/s CFs. I believe the actual part number is SDCFH-002G-A11.

If we don't order it from Juniper, could someone tell me which manufacture Juniper uses for CF? What's the R/W speed of the card or does it even matter? Any specification of the card is appreciated. Thanks.
