QFX5100 Switch
The Juniper QFX5100 series is offered in many models. Each has variable numbers of ports and modules, but they provide all of the same architecture and benefits. Depending on the number of ports, modules, and use case, a specific model can adequate into multiple roles of a data center or campus architecture. In fact, it’s common to get the similar model of switch in multiple roles in an architecture. Few models are as
QFX5100-24Q
QFX5100-48S
QFX5100-96S

QFX10000 Switch
For a while, Juniper had a product gap in its switching portfolio: a high-density, feature-rich data center switch. The Juniper QFX10000 family of switches fills this gap. It has been the most awaited switch in the company’s history. The Juniper QFX10000 also proceeds virtualization to heart: under the hood, it uses Linux and KVM to virtualize the network operating system (Junos) to reap all the benefits of virtualization, such as snapshots and In-Service Software Upgrades (ISSU).
