Juniper Networks EX4300-48T-DC Ethernet Switch

Juniper Networks EX4300-48T-DC Ethernet Switch Information:

The Juniper Networks EX4300-48T-DC Ethernet Switch, part of the EX4300 line, is designed to meet the demands of both campus and data center Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) access switch deployments. Leveraging Juniper's renowned Virtual Chassis technology, the EX4300 seamlessly scales up to 10 members, providing high availability and plug-and-play scalability essential for business needs. Combining compact, pay-as-you-grow economics with low power and cooling requirements, the EX4300 with Virtual Chassis technology empowers businesses to deploy swiftly, boosting revenue and enhancing productivity.

This Ethernet switch integrates carrier-class reliability found in modular systems with the economic advantages and flexibility of stackable platforms. Offering a complete suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, the EX4300 accommodates various deployments, from campus and branch to data center access. Initial deployment can involve a single 24-port or 48-port EX4300 switch, and as requirements expand, Virtual Chassis technology enables seamless interconnection of up to 10 EX4300 switches, creating a unified and scalable solution.

The EX4300 also integrates smoothly with QFX3500, QFX3600, and QFX5100 10GbE and 40GbE data center access switches, facilitating non-disruptive 10GbE server upgrades and simplified management in mixed access environments. Interconnected via multiple 40GbE QSFP+ transceiver ports, the EX4300 switches form a 320 gigabit per second (Gbps) backplane, while a flexible uplink module supporting both 1GbE and 10GbE options enables high-speed connectivity to aggregation- or core-layer switches across different floors or buildings.

With high availability features, including redundant, hot-swappable internal power supplies and field-replaceable fans, the EX4300 ensures maximum uptime. Additionally, PoE-enabled models support 802.3at PoE+ standards, delivering up to 30 watts on all ports to facilitate high-density IP telephony and 802.11n wireless access point deployments.
