Juniper Networks EX4200-24F-DC Ethernet Switch

Juniper Networks EX4200-24F-DC Ethernet Switch Information:

The Juniper Networks EX4200-24F-DC Ethernet Switch, featuring Virtual Chassis technology, seamlessly integrates the reliability of modular systems with the economic advantages and flexibility of stackable switches, providing a high-performance and scalable solution tailored for both data center and campus environments.  

The EX4200 line with Virtual Chassis technology uniquely combines the compact, pay-as-you-grow economics and low power and cooling requirements of stackable switches with the performance, availability, operational ease, and port densities of chassis-based platforms, effectively meeting the demands of today's high-performance enterprises. These switches combine the high availability (HA) and carrier-class reliability of modular systems with the economic flexibility of stackable platforms, making them ideal for high-performance, scalable solutions in data center, campus, and branch office environments.

Equipped with a full suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities as part of the base software, the EX4200 caters to various high-performance applications, including branch, campus, and data center access deployments, along with Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) aggregation scenarios. Starting with a single 24-port or 48-port switch deployment, the Juniper Networks Virtual Chassis technology facilitates seamless interconnection of up to 10 EX4200 switches over a 128 gigabit-per-second (Gbps) backplane, managing them as a unified device. This feature ensures a scalable, pay-as-you-grow solution for expanding network environments. Flexible Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) uplink options provide high-speed connectivity to aggregation- or core-layer switches, connecting multiple floors or buildings.

All EX4200 switches, including the EX4200-24F-DC model, incorporate high-availability features such as redundant, hot-swappable internal power supplies and field-replaceable, multi-blower fan trays to ensure maximum uptime. Additionally, the base EX4200 switch models offer Class 3 Power over Ethernet (PoE), delivering 15.4 watts on the first eight ports, supporting networked devices like telephones, video cameras, and wireless LAN (WLAN) access points in low-density converged networks.
