QFX5200 Switches The QFX5200 line provides line-rate, low-latency platforms for building large, standards-based fabrics. These switches offer flexible 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE interfaces for server and intrafabric connectivity. QFX5200 Switches are an optimal choice for spine-and-leaf deployments in enterprise, service provider, and cloud provider data centers, as well as routing use cases in metro environments. This platform supports Juniper’s SONiC implementation, delivering best-of-breed hardware and routing while taking advantage of the flexibility, resiliency, and cost savings of SONiC’s open and disaggregated architecture. Manage your QFX5200 with the turnkey Juniper Apstra System that automates the entire network lifecycle to simplify design, deployment, and operations and provide closed-loop assurance. Key Features Use Case: Data Center Fabric Leaf/Spine Port Density: QFX5200-48Y: 48 x 10/25GbE SFP+/SFP28 and 6 x 40/100GbE QSFP+/QSFP28 QFX5200-32C/-S: 32 x 40/100GbE QSFP+/QSFP28 Throughput: Up to 3.6/6.4 Tbps (bidirectional) SONiC: ONIE and SONiC images preinstalled on QFX5200-32C-S Features + Benefits High Throughput Up to 6.4 Tbps (bidirectional) of line-rate, low-latency switching to support data center fabrics built on proven, scalable technology standards. Junos OS Capabilities Enables support for advanced networking features such as BGP add-path, MPLS, Layer 3 VPN, and FCoE. Option to run SONiC The QFX5200-32C-S gives you the flexibility to use our hardware and routing in a SONiC data center network infrastructure.Network Automation Includes Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and support for Python, Ansible, Chef, Puppet, and others. Fabric Management Juniper’s intent-based Apstra solution provides full day 0 through day 2 capabilities for IP/EVPN fabrics with closed-loop assurance. Product Overview The QFX5200 line of access switches is ideally suited for leaf deployments in next-generation IP fabrics. It features line-rate, high-density SFP28/QSFP+/QSFP28 ports that support 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE connections. Offering an advanced L2, L3, and MPLS feature set, network operators can use the QFX5200 to build large, high-density IP fabrics that support upgrades to 25GbE servers, network virtualization, and intelligent traffic forwarding based on proven, Internet-scale technology. The QFX5200 also supports a version of Junos OS software in which control plane and data plane processes and functions run in parallel, maximizing utilization of the high-performance quad-core CPU. Additionally, the QFX5200-32C-S platform includes support for SONiC, continuing Juniper’s commitment to disaggregation and allowing customers to innovate quickly and easily while simplifying operations. Product Description Network operators are increasingly deploying scale-out, spine-and-leaf IP fabric architectures, built with fixed-configuration switches to support growing east-west traffic in the data center. The Juniper Networks® QFX5200 line of next-generation, fixed-configuration leaf/access switches offers flexible, cost-effective, high-density 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE interfaces for server and intra-fabric connectivity, providing deployment versatility, investment protection, and future-proofing for today’s data centers. In addition to leaf deployments in IP fabric architectures, the QFX5200 switches are also a great fit for multitier, multichassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) network implementations commonly used in enterprise networks. Like other QFX Series switches, the QFX5200 supports advanced Layer 2, Layer 3, and MPLS features. For large public cloud providers - among the first to adopt 25GbE servers to meet explosive workload growth - the QFX5200 enables very large, dense, and fast IP fabrics based on proven, Internet scale technology. For enterprise customers seeking investment protection as they transition their server farms from 10GbE to 25GbE, the QFX5200 line provides native 10GbE and 25GbE do
