Juniper Networks EX4200-24P Ethernet Switch Information:
The Juniper Networks EX4200-24P Ethernet Switch, featuring Virtual Chassis technology, seamlessly merges the reliability of modular systems with the economic benefits and flexibility of stackable switches, offering a high-performance and scalable solution tailored for both data center and campus environments. Driven by the demands of high-performance businesses, the EX4200-24P introduces a new era of secure, scalable, and always-on enterprise switches.
This innovative Juniper switch class propels networking economics forward, enabling businesses to deploy cutting-edge technologies that enhance revenue and productivity. With Virtual Chassis technology, the EX4200 line combines the economic advantages and low power and cooling requirements of stackable switches with the robust performance, availability, operational ease, and port densities found in chassis-based platforms, addressing the diverse needs of modern high-performance enterprises.
Equipped with a comprehensive suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities in its base software, the EX4200-24P accommodates various high-performance applications, from branch, campus, and data center access deployments to Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) aggregation deployments. Initial deployment can start with a single 24-port switch, and as requirements expand, the Virtual Chassis technology seamlessly interconnects up to 10 EX4200 switches over a 128 gigabit-per-second (Gbps) backplane, managing them as a unified device. Flexible Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) uplink options facilitate high-speed connectivity to aggregation- or core-layer switches connecting multiple floors or buildings.
All EX4200 switches boast high availability (HA) features, including redundant, hot-swappable internal power supplies and field-replaceable, multi-blower fan trays, ensuring maximum uptime. Additionally, base EX4200 switch models offer Class 3 Power over Ethernet (PoE), providing 15.4 watts on the first eight ports to support networked devices like telephones, video cameras, and wireless LAN (WLAN) access points in low-density converged networks. Full PoE options delivering 15.4 watts on all 24 or 48 ports are also available, making them well-suited for high-density IP telephony deployments.
