Whether you are upgrading an enterprise campus to widespread 10GbE distribution or are looking for a low-density TOR switch for your data center, Juniper’s EX4600 Ethernet switches offer a compact, highly scalable, high-performance solution. The EX4600 line is designed for maximum deployment flexibility, high availability (unified in-service software upgrades, ISSU), and multi-chassis internetworking simplification with support for MC-LAG (Multichassis Link Aggregation). The highly flexible EX4600 line supports up to 40 1GbE ports, 72 10GbE ports, or 12 40GbE ports using various installable modules, delivering up to 1.44 Tbps of Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity in a single rack unit.
FluxLight has a full line of Juniper-compatible transceivers and cable options for the EX4600 series switches.
INTRODUCTION TO THE JUNIPER EX4600 SERIES
The EX4600 supports up to 72 wire-speed 10GbE small form-factor pluggable (SFP) and SFP plus (SFP+) transceiver ports, and up to 12 wire-speed 40GbE quad SFP+ transceiver (QSFP+) ports in a compact one rack unit (1 U) platform, the Juniper Networks® EX4600 Ethernet Switch delivers 1.44 Tbps of Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity to networked devices such as secure routers, servers, and other switches. The EX4600 base switch provides 24 fixed 1GbE SFP/10GbE SFP+ ports and 4 fixed 40GbE QSFP+ ports, providing the flexibility to support mixed 1GbE, 10GbE and 40GbE environments. A total of four models are available: two featuring AC power supplies and front-to-back or back-to-front airflow; and two featuring DC power supplies and front-to-back or back-to-front airflow. Each model includes dual power supplies. All versions feature two expansion slots that can accommodate optional expansion modules, providing tremendous configuration and deployment flexibility for enterprise distribution networks. Two expansion modules are available:
- 8x 1GBASE/10GBASE SFP/SFP+ fiber expansion module
- 4x 40GbE QSFP+ expansion module
