High-Performance carrier-class Ethernet Switches

The EX4500 line of Ethernet switches offers scalable, compact, high-performance platforms for supporting high-density, 10 gigabit per second (Gbps) data center top-of-rack, as well as data center, campus, and service provider aggregation deployments.

Featuring up to 48 wire-speed dual Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10GbE pluggable ports in a two rack unit platform, the EX4500 switch delivers full Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity to networked devices such as servers and other switches. Forty fixed ports are complemented by two optional high-speed uplink modules available for configuration flexibility, providing eight additional 10GbE ports.

The EX4500 offers an economical, power-efficient and compact solution for aggregating 10GbE uplinks from access devices in core data center and building deployments. The EX4500 easily meets enterprise core switch requirements by delivering wire-speed performance on every port, full device redundancy, dual speed GbE and 10GbE interfaces, support for Layer 3 dynamic routing protocols such as RIP and OSPF, and a comprehensive quality-of-service (QoS) feature set.

The EX4500 also supports Virtual Chassis technology, dramatically reducing complexity and introducing a new level of flexibility for data center top-rack or end-row server aggregation deployments.  EX4500 switches can also be combined with EX4200 switches in a single Virtual Chassis configuration to support environments where both GbE and 10GbE servers are present.

The EX4500 switches run the same Junos operating system that powers other Juniper switches, routers and security devices, providing a consistent set of features and capabilities across the Juniper network infrastructure
