Juniper EX8200 Ethernet Line Card

JUNIPER EX8200-40XS EX8200-40XS-ES 40-port GbE/10GbE SFP/SFP+ line card for EX8208 EX8216

Juniper Networks EX8200 Ethernet line cards offer a variety of interfaces for supporting high-density 100 Mbps,Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) deployments.  Working with the Juniper Networks EX8208 eight-slot and EX8216 16-slot modular Ethernet switch chassis, the EX8200 Ethernet line cards offer flexible, high-density interfaces for high-performance data center and campus aggregation and core environments.

Product Description

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 high-speed interface to the chassis switch fabric. In addition, each line card contains a local processor which provides scalable local control and status processing. 

Eight 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, the EX8200-40XS, the EX8200-48TL, the EX8200-48PL, the EX8200-2XS-40T and the EX8200-2XS-40P. Four of these cards are available in Extra Scale (ES) configurations—the EX8200-48T-ES, the EX8200-48F-ES, the EX8200-8XS-ES and the EX8200-40XS-ES—which are optimized for large-scale deployments such as large campuses, global data centers, or cloud-based applications.
