Juniper has rolled out a flexible switch that can be upgraded to support 400GbE networks and includes tight integration with the company’s Apstra intent-based networking (IBN) software.
The Juniper QFX5700, a 5U, eight-slot, 25.6Tbps throughput box supports a range of line cards that customers can mix and match Ethernet speeds of 10G to 400G to accommodate application or migration needs.
The QFX 5700 is built with Broadcom’s Trident 4 chipset and runs Junos OS Evolved, the vendor’s native-Linux-based network operating system.
