Description
Juniper MX960 3D Universal Edge Router – 14 – 2U – 1 YearToday’s advanced services are dictating that both enterprises and service providers build networks that meet increasingly stringent requirements for quality of service (QoS), network performance, and availability. With Ethernet as the primary transport technology, network providers are also looking at solutions to integrate legacy (ATM/Frame Relay/TDM) service infrastructure with the Ethernet Infrastructure and for a migration path to Ethernet over time. In addition to these basic requirements, service providers seeking to provide a differentiated user experience are finding that they must scale their networks to support increasingly higher amounts of bandwidth, services, and subscribers. Scaling the network in these three dimensions will be critical to securing competitive differentiation for the next generation of services.
Juniper Networks® MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers are the only routers designed to provide the 3D scaling necessary to address today’s advanced Ethernet converged network requirements. Powered by Juniper Networks Junos® operating system and high-performance silicon such as the I-Chip and Junos Trio chipset, the MX Series enables service providers and enterprises to adapt to Ethernet services in a changing market.
Product Description
MX Series offers a portfolio of high-performance Ethernet routers with integrated multiservice support, and it functions as a true Universal Edge platform capable of supporting all business, mobile, and residential services. With powerful switching and security features, the MX Series delivers unmatched flexibility and reliability to support advanced services and applications. MX Series routers also separate control and forwarding functions to provide maximum scale and intelligent service delivery capabilities.
MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers are optimized for Ethernet and address a wide range of deployments, architectures, port densities, and interfaces for both service provider and enterprise environments. In both markets, the MX Series routers provide scalable, high port density routing and switching. They surpass the requirements of carrier Ethernet routing and switching as defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum, making them the platforms of choice for service providers seeking 3D scaling in the Universal Edge. These features are also ideal for high-performance enterprise data centers and enterprise campus networks.
Powered by Junos OS, the MX Series provides a consistent operating environment that streamlines network operations and improves the availability, performance, and security of all types of services supported at the Universal Edge. It offers the most complete, advanced routing features in the industry without compromising performance, which maximizes investment protection. These features include traffic segmentation and virtualization with MPLS, other sophisticated virtualization techniques such as Virtual Chassis technology, logical systems, low latency multicast, as well as comprehensive security and QoS implementations to accelerate delivery of time-sensitive applications and services.
