Juniper Networks QFX Series QFX5100-48S - switch - 48 ports - managed - rack-mountable

The highly flexible, high-performance Juniper Networks QFX5100 line of switches provides the foundation for the dynamic data center. As a critical enabler for IT transformation, the data center network supports cloud and software-defined networking (SDN) adoption, as well as rapid deployment and delivery of applications. Mission-critical applications, network virtualization, and integrated or scale-out storage are driving the need for more adaptable networks. With its diverse set of deployment options, including fabric, Layer 3, and spine and leaf, the QFX5100 is the universal building block for data center switching architectures, enabling users to easily adapt as requirements change over time.

Featuring a built-in Insight technology capability, the QFX5100 provides valuable performance and troubleshooting data via microburst monitoring and hotspot statistics. The QFX5100 can also be used as a high-performance QFabric node in Juniper's high-scale QFabric system, deployed in Juniper's virtual chassis fabric switching architecture, and installed in Juniper's existing virtual chassis switching architecture.
