The QFX10000 line of Switches offer a highly scalable network foundation to support today’s most demanding data center and multicloud environments. Using our custom silicon Q5 ASICs, the high-performance, versatile QFX10000 Switches scale from 3 to 96 Tbps of throughput, providing the capacity you need for long-term investment protection.
The QFX10008 and QFX10016 models help you lower TCO, simplify network deployments, and reduce management overhead. The switches offer architectural flexibility, so you’ll never be locked into a proprietary solution. They can operate in diverse network environments, including EVPN/VXLAN, Layer 3 spine-and-leaf Clos network fabrics, or Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks with multichassis link aggregation group (MC-LAG).
Enabling hardware and software to work together as an intelligent, unified network, QFX10000 Switches form the underlying data center infrastructure for Contrail Networking, which automates networking policy and performs life-cycle management for data center fabrics. Contrail Networking abstracts network connectivity using virtual overlays across legacy and cloud-native workloads running on servers attached to QFX Series Switches.
Features
MACsec-Enabled
MACsec capability at higher 100GbE and 40GbE speeds provides a faster method of encrypting traffic in the data center.
Packet Optical-Enabled
High availability and traffic engineering complement integrated, coherent dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) into a single, multilayer Data Center Interconnect (DCI).
Streaming Telemetry
With Junos Telemetry Interface, you can provision sensors to collect and export data for various system resources, such as physical interfaces and firewall filters.
Deep Buffer with Hybrid Memory Cube
The buffer absorbs potential network traffic spikes.
Overlay Management
Contrail Networking provides the connectivity for legacy and cloud-native workloads across multicloud environments.
Multicloud DCI Management
Use Contrail Enterprise Multicloud for overlay control between data centers and the cloud with standards-based EVPN/VXLAN.
Architectural Flexibility
Supports EVPN/VXLAN, IP Fabric and multichassis link aggregation group (MC-LAG) for Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, delivering the flexibility needed to quickly deploy and support new services.
Precision Time Protocol
PTP supports financial trading and time-stamping packets for synchronization.
