QFX5110 Switch Models
The QFX5110 switches are compact, 1 U platforms that provide wire-speed packet performance, very low latency, and a rich set of Junos OS features. In addition to a high-throughput Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE), the performance of the QFX5110 control plane is further enhanced with a powerful 1.8 GHz quad-core Intel CPU with 16 GB of memory and 64 GB SSD storage.
Two QFX5110 switch models are available:
QFX5110-48S—A 10GbE/100GbE data center access switch, the QFX5110-48S offers 48 small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) transceiver ports and four QSFP28 ports that can be configured as 4x40GbE or 4x100GbE ports, with an aggregate throughput of 1.76 Tbps or 1.32 Bpps per switch. For added flexibility, each QSFP28 port can also be configured as 4x10GbE ports using breakout cables, increasing the total number of supported 10GbE ports to 64 per switch.
QFX5110-32Q—A 40GbE/100GbE data center access and aggregation switch, the QFX5110-32Q offers up to 32 QSFP+ ports, or 20 QSFP+ ports and four QSFP28 ports, with an aggregate throughput of 2.56 Tbps or 1.44 Bpps per switch. For added flexibility, the QSFP+ ports can also be configured as 4x10GbE ports using QSFP+-to-SFP+ direct attach copper (DAC) or QSFP+-to-SFP+ fiber breakout cables and optics, or as 24 4x10GbE and eight QSFP+ ports, increasing the total number of supported 10GbE ports to 96 per switch.
Features + Benefits
High Throughput
The switch delivers up to 2.56 Tbps wire-speed switching with low latency and jitter, along with full Layer 2 and Layer 3 performance.
Junos OS Capabilities
The Junos operating system supports advanced networking features such as BGP EVPN-VXLAN, MPLS, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).
Deployment Options
EVPN-VXLAN Layer 2 and Layer 3 gateway support enables VXLAN-to-VLAN connectivity at any tier in the data center, from access to edge, and bridging between virtualized and bare-metal servers.
Network Automation
Support for intent-based automation, Terraform, Python, Puppet, Ansible, and zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) addresses growing network complexity in Day 0 to Day 2+ operations.
Fabric Management
Intent-based Juniper Apstra software provides full Day 0 through Day 2+ capabilities for IP/EVPN fabrics with closed-loop assurance in the data center.
