Buy or Sell Juniper PTX PTX10002 Router

Service provider budgets are straining under today’s mounting network traffic volumes. When it comes to keeping operational expenses in check, having more capacity and greater port densities in a smaller footprint goes a long way toward managing the costs associated with real estate and power consumption.

The PTX10001 Packet Transport Router meets that need. The label-switching router (LSR) provides high-density 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE interfaces for distributed core networks and network applications. It meets the demands of Internet service providers, high-volume content providers, and multiple-system operators (MSOs) for cost-optimized IP/MPLS in addition to source-packet routing applications in the content delivery network (CDN) core.

Occupying only one rack unit, the PTX10001 is the first fixed-configuration core router that enables service providers to organically distribute transit points throughout their networks. It uses a rich IP/MPLS LSR feature set without sacrificing performance or ease of deployment, two key total-cost-of-ownership (TCO) elements for service providers.

With 3.6 Tbps of forwarding capacity, the PTX10001 supports flexible interface configuration options, including 144 10GbE interfaces using a Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (QSFP+) breakout module, 36 40GbE interfaces using QSFP+, and 36 100GbE interfaces using QSFP28.

The PTX10001 is powered by Juniper Networks Express custom silicon, which delivers predictable IP/MPLS performance and functionality, and supports inline 256-AES MACsec encryption on all interfaces.
