Juniper Networks EX4500-40F Ethernet Switch

The Juniper Networks EX4500-40F Ethernet Switch is a high-performance networking solution equipped with 40 GbE/10GbE small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP/SFP+) fiber connectors and eight 10GbE SFP+ uplink ports through two optional four-port uplink modules. Additionally, it features 1 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet RJ-45 ports for efficient management. The EX4500 series is tailored for scalability, compactness, and high performance, making it an ideal choice for high-density 10 Gbps data center top-of-rack deployments, as well as data center, campus, and service provider aggregation scenarios.

This Ethernet Switch provides 40 wire-speed dual Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10GbE pluggable ports within a two-rack-unit base platform, delivering comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity for networked devices like servers and switches. The optional high-speed uplink modules further enhance configuration flexibility by adding eight extra 10GbE ports, bringing the total port count to 48. The EX4550 Ethernet Switch, a part of the EX4500 series, offers 32 wire-speed GbE or 10GbE pluggable ports within a compact one-rack-unit base platform.

Two expansion slots, one in the front and one in the back, accommodate optional expansion modules, providing remarkable configuration and deployment flexibility. With expansion modules, the EX4550 achieves a density of 48 wire-speed GbE or 10GbE ports, delivering an impressive 480 Gbps of Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity for demanding network environments.
