QFX5100-48S-DC-AFO Juniper 48-Port 10GBase-T Manageable Layer-3 Switch Rack-Mountable Network Switch

Juniper QFX5100-48S-DC-AFO

The Juniper QFX5100-48S-DC-AFO is a 48-port managed Layer 3 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch from Juniper, part of the QFX Series, built for virtualized server farms, private clouds and storage networks that need low latency and high bandwidth. The series is designed for data center switching.

On the front panel you get 48 x 10GBASE-T, ready for copper and fiber connections as your design requires. Standards compliance means it integrates with existing routers, servers and client devices, whatever the vendor. Wired Ethernet gives consistent, low-latency connections that wireless alone cannot always guarantee.

As a managed switch it gives administrators full control over how traffic is segmented, prioritized and secured. With Layer 3 features it can route traffic between subnets locally for a more efficient, scalable design. Management is based on Junos OS, a platform familiar to network engineers. Switching sends each frame only where it needs to go, which keeps the network efficient. Monitoring support gives administrators early warning of errors, congestion and failing links. Keeping a record of what is connected to each port speeds up maintenance. Applying vendor firmware updates, where offered, is good practice for security and reliability.

The rack-mountable design makes installation straightforward in its intended location. Virtualized workloads, storage traffic and east-west flows benefit from its density and speed. It creates a tidy, central hub for all wired devices in the area it serves. In a leaf-spine design, high-speed ports connect servers at the leaf while uplinks provide bandwidth to the spine. Whether you are building a new network or replacing an existing unit, the QFX5100-48S-DC-AFO delivers Juniper managed 10 Gigabit Ethernet switching that fits the job.
