Description
The Juniper MX104 Universal Routing Platform is a compact, carrier‑grade modular router engineered for edge, aggregation, and service provider applications where space and power are limited. Built on Juniper’s Junos OS and powered by the programmable Trio ASIC, the MX104 delivers up to 80 Gbps of system throughput with robust routing, switching, security, and service capabilities common across larger MX Series platforms. It features four fixed 10 GbE ports (license‑activated) and four Modular Interface Card (MIC) slots for flexible, pay‑as‑you‑grow connectivity options. Redundant control plane support enhances availability, and the chassis is environmentally hardened and ETSI‑300 compliant, making it suitable for outdoor cabinets, central offices, and remote terminals. Typical use cases include enterprise WAN edge, mobile backhaul, broadband network gateway, and multi‑service aggregation deployments. The MX104 supports advanced timing capabilities and a broad suite of L2/L3 VPN, MPLS, and routing services to address the needs of modern networks.
Key Features:
- Modular, Space‑Efficient Platform – Compact 3.5 RU chassis ideal for space‑constrained environments with four MIC slots for flexible interface expansion.
- 80 Gbps Throughput – High‑performance routing capacity for edge and aggregation traffic.
- 4×10 GbE Fixed Ports – Built‑in 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity (requires license activation).
- Redundant Control Plane – Support for redundant routing engines enhances network availability.
- Carrier‑Grade Resilience – ETSI‑300 compliance and environmental hardening for cabinet or remote deployments.
