EX8200 Series

General Information

The modular Juniper EX 8200 series terabit Ethernet switches deliver a high-performance, highly scalable solution for high-density 10GbE enterprise core and aggregation deployments.Two EX 8200 series switches will be available: an eight-slot 1.6 terabit model and a 16-slot 3.2 terabit model. Featuring enterprise-class table sizes and deep, hardware-based packet buffers, the EX 8200 platforms offer some of the industry’s highest wire-speed 10GbE port densities for its switch class—64 ports in the eight-slot chassis and 128 ports in the 16-slot chassis. Two fully-equipped 16-slot EX 8200 switches can fit in a single 42-unit rack, delivering an unprecedented 256 wire-speed 10GbE ports per rack.  Like the EX 3200 and EX 4200 series switches, the EX 8200 series switches leverage existing, proven Juniper technology such as the JUNOS software, as well as the same switch fabric employed by the MX-series routers. Combined with distributed packet-forwarding engines on each line card and Juniper-developed ASIC technology, the EX 8200 series switches bring carrier-class performance and reliability to Ethernet switching.
