Description
The Juniper QFX5200‑32C is a compact, high‑performance 1 RU Ethernet switch engineered for data center and campus fabric deployments, including leaf/top‑of‑rack and aggregation layers. Part of the QFX5200 Series, it delivers line‑rate, low‑latency switching with support for a wide range of interface speeds, making it ideal for high‑density IP fabrics and modern east‑west traffic patterns.
Featuring 32 QSFP+/QSFP28 ports, the QFX5200‑32C provides flexible connectivity with native support for 40 GbE and 100 GbE interfaces. These ports can also be configured via breakout cables to support lower speeds such as 4×25 GbE or 4×10 GbE per port, enabling adaptable connectivity options for servers and network uplinks. The switch runs Juniper’s Junos OS, offering advanced Layer 2/Layer 3 routing, EVPN‑VXLAN fabric support, automation, and a full suite of network protocols and services needed in modern data centers.
With significant switching capacity and scalability, the QFX5200‑32C meets the performance demands of dense 100 GbE environments while enabling simplified fabric architectures and future‑ready designs.
Key Features:
• 32× QSFP+/QSFP28 ports configurable for 40 GbE or 100 GbE interfaces with breakout support.
• Up to 6.4 Tbps bidirectional switching capacity and 3.2 Bpps forwarding performance.
• Flexible breakout support — QSFP28 can provide 1×100 GbE, 2×50 GbE, or 4×25 GbE.
• Junos OS with advanced Layer 2/3, EVPN‑VXLAN, and automation features.
• Ideal for IP fabric leaf/spine and aggregation roles in data centers and campuses.
• Compact 1 RU form factor with options for front‑to‑back or back‑to‑front airflow and redundant fans/power.
