The Juniper Networks QFX10000 line of modular Ethernet switches delivers up to 96 Tbps of system throughput, scalable to over 200 Tbps in the future, to meet the rapid and ongoing traffic growth in the data center and campus deployments. Industry-leading scale and density on the QFX10000 modular switches redefine per-slot economics, enabling customers to do more with less while simplifying network design and reducing OpEx. Based on purpose-built Q5 ASICs, the QFX10000 line delivers unparalleled intelligence and analytics, providing deeper insights into application performance.
Two QFX10000 modular chassis options are available, providing full deployment flexibility:
Both QFX10000 modular chassis can accommodate any combination of the following QFX10000 line cards:
Fully configured, a single QFX10016 chassis can support up to 480 100GbE ports, delivering the industry’s highest line-rate 100GbE port densities in its class. The QFX10000 switch fabric is capable of delivering up to 7.2 Tbps (full duplex) per slot, and the midplane- less orthogonal interconnect architecture ensures system longevity.
