EX9200

The EX9200 line of Ethernet switches provides a programmable, flexible, and scalable foundation for delivering mission-critical applications. In the enterprise campus, the EX9200 enables collaboration and provides simple and secure access for the delivery of mission-critical applications. In the data center, it simplifies operations to align the network with fast-changing business requirements.
EX9200 switches empower organizations to deploy an evolved enterprise core, supporting layer 2 or layer 3 applications with Ethernet VPN (EVPN)-Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN). Using these open technologies allows enterprises to create a secure, end-to-end network across geographically dispersed locations while leveraging unified policies to segment traffic.

Product overview

The Juniper Networks EX9200 line of modular Ethernet switches provides a programmable, flexible, and scalable core for delivering mission critical applications in both campus and data center environments, reducing cost and complexity while offering carrier-class reliability. High port densities enable the EX9200 to consolidate and aggregate network layers, dramatically simplifying campus and data center architectures while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) and lowering power, space and cooling requirements.

Product Description

The EX9200 line of programmable, flexible and scalable modular Ethernet core switches simplifies the deployment of cloud applications, virtualized servers and rich media collaboration tools across campus and data center environments.
The EX9200 is also a key component of Juniper’s AI-Driven Enterprise. The switch decouples the overlay network from the underlay with technologies such as Ethernet VPN (EVPN) and Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN), addressing the needs of the modern enterprise network by allowing network administrators to create logical L2 networks over different L3 networks.
The EX9200 is based on Juniper One custom silicon, an ASIC designed by Juniper which provides a programmable Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) and allows for native support of networking protocols such as virtualization using MPLS over IP and overlay network protocols. ASIC micro code changes delivered through updates to Juniper Networks Junos® operating system provide investment protection by allowing existing hardware to support new or future networking protocols.
The programmability of the EX9200 allows it to support Junos OS-based automation along with the Junos SDK, which enables integration with Puppet and other automation applications. The EX9200’s network programmability also enables integration with leading orchestration applications such as OpenStack.

Fully configured, a single EX9214 chassis can support up to 480 10GbE ports (all at wire speed), delivering one of the industry’s highest line-rate 10GbE port densities for this class of feature rich and programmable switch. The EX9200 switch fabric is capable of delivering up to 480 Gbps (full duplex) per slot. The pass-through midplane design also supports a future capacity of up to 13.2 Tbps.
