Network speeds keep moving upward, but that doesn't necessarily mean every data center needs to jump straight to the newest generation of switching hardware.

For network operators managing a transition from 10/25GbE server connectivity toward 100GbE, while simultaneously moving the fabric toward 400GbE, the Juniper QFX5130-48C occupies an interesting middle ground.

Both the Juniper QFX5200-32C and QFX5120-32C are compact (1RU), high-density 100G switches designed for fabric deployments, offering 32 ports of 100GbE, delivering 6.4 Tbps of line-rate switching. They both also support a range of interface speeds, including 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE, providing deployment versatility ideal for leaf switches. Both models support advanced Junos OS features, such as BGP add-path, MPLS, L3 VPN, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).
