Juniper EX8200-8XS 8-PORT 10GBE SFP+ MODULE

The Juniper Networks EX8200 line of Ethernet switches offer powerful, modular platforms that deliver the performance, scalability, and carrier-class reliability required for today’s high-density enterprise data center access and core and campus aggregation and core environments, as well as high-performance service provider interconnects. EX8200 Ethernet line cards are specifically designed to optimize enterprise applications. Each EX8200 Ethernet line card includes either two or four on-board Packet Forwarding Engines—the EX-PFE2—that are equipped with two purpose-built, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), one to perform wire-speed packet processing at line rates, and another to perform internal deep packet queuing and buffering while providing a highspeed interface to the chassis switch fabric. In addition, each line card contains a local processor which provides scalable local control and status processing.

Four versions of the EX8200 Ethernet line cards are available, each of which supports a consistent set of features and capabilities: the EX8200-48T, the EX8200-48F, the EX8200-8XS and the EX8200-40XS.

EX8200-8XS: The EX8200-8XS is an eight-port 10GBASE-X line card with compact, modular SFP+ fiber optic interfaces, enabling up to 64 line-rate 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports in an EX8208 chassis and 128 ports in an EX8216 chassis. The EX8200-8XS is ideal for enterprise applications such as campus or data center uplink aggregation, core and backbone interconnects, and for service provider deployments requiring high- density, wire-speed 10-Gigabit Ethernet interconnects in metro area networks, Internet exchange points, and points of presence (POPs). The 10-Gigabit Ethernet port densities afforded by the EX8200-8XS line cards also enable EX8200 switches to consolidate aggregation and core layers in the data center, simplifying the network architecture and reducing power, space, and cooling requirements while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO).
