The OCX1100 combines the power of Juniper’s hardened, carrier-class Junos operating system software with cloud-optimized, open source switching hardware built on commercially sourced components. Featuring an OCP-submitted design, the OCX1100 ensures customers are running a consistent and open hardware platform.

By offering a single-source solution, the OCX1100 offers customers the economies of an open hardware design while providing a level of support and reliability not typically available with other white box solutions.

The OCX1100, offering 48 small form-factor pluggable and pluggable plus (SFP/ SFP+) transceiver ports and six quad SFP+ (QSFP+) ports in a compact 1 U platform, is designed for cloud builders who want an open source hardware platform but won’t compromise on performance, reliability or support. Featuring an aggregate throughput of 1.44 Tbps or 1.08 Bpps per switch, the OCX1100 is an ideal high-density top-of-rack solution for large-scale Layer 3 Clos deployments.

Using custom, Juniper-built ASICs, the high-performance, highly versatile QFX10000 switches scale from 3 to 96 Tbps of throughput, delivering the capacity you need for long-term investment protection.

Additionally, by offering the industry’s highest 100GbE port density—up to 480 in a single chassis—the QFX10000 gives you the power to seamlessly evolve your data center networks from existing 10GbE and 40GbE architectures to 100GbE, to keep pace with evolving requirements.

The QFX10000 switches are also designed to accommodate future chipset upgrades capable of delivering up to 200 Tbps of throughput, with support for 400GbE interfaces (when available).

The QFX10000 line includes four models, offering flexible solutions for every data center application:

QFX10002-72Q is a fixed-configuration platform supporting up to 24 100GbE interfaces, 72 40GbE interfaces or 288 10GbE interfaces in a 2U form factor
QFX10002-36Q is a fixed-configuration platform supporting up to 12 100GbE interfaces, 36 40GbE interfaces or 144 10GbE interfaces in a 2U form factor
QFX10008 is a modular, 8-slot switch supporting up to 240 100GbE interfaces, 288 40GbE ports or 1,152 10GbE ports in a single chassis
QFX10016 is a high-density, 16-slot modular chassis supporting up to 480 100GbE interfaces, 576 40GbE ports or 2,304 10GbE ports.
The QFX10000 switches also serve as the foundation for the Junos Fusion architecture, a new standards-based approach for creating an open, highly scalable switch fabric. Junos Fusion dramatically simplifies data center and cloud deployments while reducing management overhead.

Designed to function as a common building block in a variety of other network architectures and fabrics, QFX10000 switches give you maximum flexibility and ensure that you will never be locked into a proprietary solution. This architectural flexibility enables the QFX10000 switches to operate in diverse network environments, including Layer 3 spine-and-leaf Clos fabrics and Layer 2 / Layer 3 networks with Juniper MC-LAG.

The QFX5200, a compact, 1 U platform offering 32 QSFP+ or QSFP28 ports, features a high-throughput 3.2-Tbps Packet Forwarding Engine. A 1.8-GHz quad-core Intel CPU with 16GB of memory further boosts performance on the control plane.

Like other QFX Series switches, the QFX5200 supports advanced Layer 2, Layer 3, and MPLS features. You can use the QFX5200 to build large, high-density IP fabrics that support upgrades to 25GbE, network virtualization, and intelligent traffic-forwarding based on proven, Internet-scale technology.

The QFX5200 also supports a disaggregated version of Junos OS that allows control and data plane processes and functions to run in parallel, maximizing utilization of the high-performance quad-core CPU.

QFX5100 switches also include support for virtualized network environments including Juniper Contrail and VMware NSX Layer 2 gateway services.

Five QFX5100 switch models are available:

QFX5100-48S, a 10GbE switch that offers 48 dual-mode, small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP and SFP+) ports and six quad small form-factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) 40GbE ports.
QFX5100-48T, a 10GbE switch with 48 tri-speed (10GbE/1GbE/100 Mbps) RJ-45 ports and six QSFP+ ports.
QFX5100-24Q, a 40GbE switch that supports up to 32 QSFP+ ports.
QFX5100-24Q-AA, a high-performance 40GbE switch that supports an FPGA-based 4x40GbE expansion module with customizable logic for accelerating compute-intensive, latency-sensitive, mission-critical application processing.
QFX5100-96S, a 10GbE switch that provides 96 dual-mode SFP and SFP+ ports, and eight quad small form-factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) 40GbE ports.
For added flexibility, the 40GbE ports on the QFX5100 switches can serve as 4x10GbE ports, using QSFP+ to SFP+ direct-attach copper (DAC) or QSFP+ to SFP+ fiber splitter cables and optics. In converged server-edge access environments, you can also deploy the QFX5100 as a standards-based Fibre Channel-over-Ethernet (FCoE) transit switch, protecting investments in existing data center aggregation and Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN) infrastructures.

The EX9200 line of programmable Ethernet switches simplifies the deployment of cloud applications, server virtualization, and rich media collaboration tools in enterprise campus and data center core and aggregation environments.

In the enterprise campus, the EX9200 enables collaboration and provides simple and secure access for the delivery of mission-critical applications. In the data center, it simplifies operations to align the network with fast-changing business requirements.

The EX4300 line features 24 and 48-port 10/100/1000BASE-T models and a 32-port 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-X SFP model. On the fiber-based switches, four fixed front-panel uplink ports accommodate 1GbE or 10GbE optics for high-speed backbone or link aggregation connections. The four 40GBASE QSFP+ ports available on each model can also be used for high-speed backbone or link aggregation connections. Power over Ethernet (PoE)-enabled EX4300 models offer standards-based 802.3at PoE+, delivering up to 30 watts on all ports for supporting high-density IP telephony, surveillance camera, or wireless access point deployments.

The EX4200 Ethernet Switch is a compact, fixed-configuration solution that deploys easily in campus installations, as well as in 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) access environments in the data center.

Juniper’s Virtual Chassis technology can be used to connect up to 10 EX4200 Switches as a single, logical device, delivering a scalable solution perfect for growing campus installations. The EX4200 can also be combined with EX4500 and EX4550 Switches in the same Virtual Chassis to support mixed 1GbE and 10GbE environments.

The EX4200 Switches support 10/100/1000BASE-T with both 24- and 48-port configurations and optionally include full or partial IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) or 802.3at PoE+.
