The Juniper Networks ACX7300 line of Cloud Metro routers is designed to help operators achieve their capital, operational, and user experience goals. Part of the Juniper Networks ACX7000 family portfolio, ACX7300 routers are Juniper Cloud Metro-ready for 4G/5G, Internet of Things (IoT), and cloud-based applications. They are designed for metro access and aggregation, large enterprise, and residential use cases requiring a highly flexible (1GbE to 400GbE), compact (29-cm-deep), 3 U, multiservice, and multi-environmental rated platforms. Whether your network demands are temperature-dependent or high-scale, the industrial-temperature (I-Temp) rated ACX7348 or extended-temperature (E-Temp) rated and external ternary content addressable memory (eTCAM) enabled ACX7332 can fit your Cloud Metro requirements today and into the future.
ACX7332: The E-Temp rated ACX7332 delivers high-end, eTCAM-enhanced, multiservices in a 3 U fixed plus modular, compact (29 cm deep), power-efficient footprint. It provides 2.4 Tbps forwarding capacity, supports 32 fixed multi-rate (SFP28) ports, each configurable as 1GbE, 10GbE, and 25GbE client services enabling operators to perform today’s most common transport upgrades on a port-by-port basis without a platform forklift. An additional 8 fixed (QSFP-28) ports support 100GbE (ZR capable) uplinks. ACX7300 platforms have three I/O bays that provide support for optional interface modules covering a range of port speeds: one I/O bay delivers an additional 400 Gbps of capacity capable of supporting speeds from 1GbE to 100GbE. The other two I/O bays each provide an additional 800 Gbps of capacity capable of supporting port speeds from 10GbE to 400GbE. Integrated eTCAM technology facilitates the highest FIB scale, quicker lookups, and lower latency performance.
ACX7348: The I-Temp rated ACX7348 delivers multiservices in the same 3 U fixed-plus-modular, compact (29 cm deep), power efficient footprint. It also provides 2.4 Tbps forward capacity, 48 fixed multi-rate (SFP28) ports, each configurable as 1GbE, 10GbE, and 25GbE client services, and 8 additional fixed (QSFP-28) ports of 100GbE (ZR capable) uplinks. Three I/O bays support the same optional interface modules): one I/O bay delivering 400 Gbps of capacity supporting 1GbE to 100GbE port speeds. Two other I/O bays provide 800 Gbps of capacity each, supporting 10GbE to 400GbE ports speeds. Exceptional scale provides low-latency, high FIB and platform performance.
ACX7300 Interface Modules: The following modules can be used on both ACX7300 line platforms. Each module’s capability will be dependent on whether the module is used within one of the two 800 Gbps I/O bays or in the 400 Gbps I/O bay as noted.
