Juniper Networks EX8200-48F Ethernet Line Card

The Juniper Networks EX8200-48F Ethernet Line Card is a powerful networking solution featuring a 48-port wire-rate design that supports 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-X connections. Equipped with modular small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP) interfaces, this line card facilitates a broad range of 100 Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet optical connections over multimode fiber, single-mode fiber, or copper cabling.

Tailored for high-performance enterprise and service provider distribution applications, the EX8200-48F allows for the deployment of up to 384 line-rate ports in an EX8208 chassis or an impressive 768 ports in an EX8216 chassis. As part of the Juniper Networks EX8200 line of Ethernet switches, this line card contributes to a variety of interfaces that support high-density 100 Mbps, Gigabit, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet deployments.

Collaborating seamlessly with the Juniper Networks EX8208 eight-slot and EX8216 16-slot modular Ethernet switch chassis, the EX8200 Ethernet line cards provide flexible, high-density interfaces suitable for high-performance data center and campus aggregation and core environments. With a focus on powerful, modular platforms, the EX8200 line ensures the performance, scalability, and carrier-class reliability required for today's high-density enterprise data center access, core, campus aggregation, and service provider interconnects.

Each EX8200 Ethernet line card is designed to optimize enterprise applications, featuring two or four on-board Packet Forwarding Engines (EX-PFE2) equipped with purpose-built ASICs for wire-speed packet processing and internal deep packet queuing and buffering. Additionally, each line card contains a local processor, providing scalable local control and status processing to enhance overall efficiency.
