Product
QFX5200 Switches
The QFX5200 line provides line-rate, low-latency platforms for building large, standards-based fabrics. These switches offer flexible 10GbE, 25GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE interfaces for server and intra-fabric connectivity. They are an optimal choice for spine-and-leaf deployments in enterprise, service provider, and cloud provider data centers, as well as for metro routing use cases.
This switching platform supports Juniper’s SONiC operating system implementation, delivering best-of-breed hardware and routing while taking advantage of the flexibility, resiliency, and cost savings of SONiC’s open and disaggregated architecture.
Manage your QFX5200 with turnkey Juniper Apstra software, which automates the entire network lifecycle to simplify design, deployment, and operations and provides closed-loop assurance.
