Juniper (QFX10002-36Q) QFX10002 System with 36 Port 40G QSFP+ 12 port 100G QSFP28 144 Port 10G SFP+

The QFX10002 is a member of the QFX10000 line of Ethernet switches, which can be deployed in a number of different network designs and fabrics, including Layer 3 fabric and multichassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) for Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, giving customers complete architectural flexibility. Additionally, the open architecture ensures that customers can innovate on top of Juniper Networks Junos® operating system to accelerate their pace of innovation. The QFX10000 switches also support Juniper Networks Junos Fusion architecture, a simple, easy-to-deploy fabric that scales to support mid-to-large data center deployments while simplifying network management and configuration.

QFX10000 switches are also a key component of Juniper Networks MetaFabric™ Architecture, which provides a simple, open, and smart approach to building data center networks. Additionally, the QFX10000 switches support Data Center Interconnect (DCI), critical to workload mobility and application availability.

For networks evolving to SDN, the QFX10000 switches integrate with OpenContrail and VMware NSX SDN controllers, giving users options for SDN systems. The QFX10000 performs both Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) L2 and L3 gateway functionality; the open, standards-based platform also interoperates with Open vSwitch Database (OVSDB) to support automated management and control capabilities.
