Overview:

The QFX5200 fixed-configuration access switch is ideally suited for leaf deployments in nextgeneration IP fabric networks. It features line-rate, high-density QSFP+/QSFP28 ports that support 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE connections. Offering an advanced L2, L3, and MPLS feature set, network operators can use the QFX5200 to build large, high-density IP fabrics that support upgrades to 25GbE servers, network virtualization, and intelligent traffic forwarding based on proven, Internet-scale technology. The QFX5200 also supports a disaggregated version of Junos software in which control plane and data plane processes and functions run in parallel to maximize utilization of the highperformance quad-core CPU.

The QFX5200 switches are compact, 1U 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 QFX5200 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.

The QFX5200-48Y is a 10GbE/25GbE data center access switch that offers 48 small formfactor pluggable plus (SFP+) transceiver ports or SFP28 ports and six QSFP28 ports. The six QSFP28 ports can be configured as 6x40GbE or 6x100GbE, with an aggregate throughput of 3.6 Tbps or 4.2 Bpps per switch.

Product Description

Network operators are increasingly deploying scale-out, spine-and-leaf IP fabric architectures, built with fixed-configuration switches to support growing east-west traffic in the data center. The Juniper Networks QFX5200 line of next-generation, fixedconfiguration leaf/access switches offers flexible, cost-effective, high-density 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE interfaces for server and intra-fabric connectivity, providing deployment versatility, investment protection, and future-proofing for today’s data centers.

In addition to leaf deployments in IP fabric architectures, the QFX5200 switch is also a great fit for multitier, multichassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) network implementations commonly used in enterprise networks.

Like other QFX Series switches, the QFX5200 supports advanced Layer 2, Layer 3, and MPLS features. For large public cloud providers—among the first to adopt 25GbE servers to meet explosive workload growth—the QFX5200 enables very large, dense, and fast IP fabrics based on proven, Internet scale technology. For enterprise customers seeking investment protection as they transition their server farms from 10GbE to 25GbE, the QFX5200 line provides native 10GbE and 25GbE downlink ports as well as 40GbE and 100GbE uplink connections.

The QFX5200 runs the same reliable, high-performance Juniper Networks Junos operating system used by network operators around the world. The QFX5200 supports a modular version of Junos OS that allows the switch’s control plane and data plane processes and functions to run in parallel, maximizing utilization of the high-performance quad-core CPU.

QFX5200 Configuration

The QFX5200 is a compact, 1 U platform featuring 32 quad small form-factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) transceivers or QSFP28 ports, with two redundant 850 W AC/DC power supplies and five fan trays. A QSFP28 module can be used for a 1x100GbE connection or 2x50GbE or 4x25GbE connections using breakout cables. A QSFP+ module can be used for a 1x40GbE connection or 4x10GbE connections using breakout cables. The QFX5200 features a high throughput 6.4 Tbps Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE). Control plane performance is further enhanced with a powerful 1.8 GHz quad core Intel CPU with 16 GB of memory and 64 GB SSD storage.

Product Highlights

The QFX5200 includes the following capabilities. Please refer to the Specifications section for currently shipping features.

  • Native 25GbE configuration: Offering 48 ports of 25GbE and delivering 3.6 Tbps of line-rate switching, the QFX5200-48Y is optimized for top-of-rack deployments.
  • High-density configuration: Offering 32 ports of 100GbE or 40GbE and delivering 6.4 Tbps line-rate switching performance, the QFX5200 is optimized for high-density fabric deployments.
  • Flexible connectivity options: The QFX5200 offers a choice of 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE interface speeds for server and intra-fabric connectivity, providing deployment versatility and investment protection.
  • Rich automation capabilities: The QFX5200 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and Juniper plug-ins for OpenStack Neutron and CloudStack NetworkGuru. Proactive application/flow path analysis is available via the Juniper Networks Cloud Analytics Engine to operationalize network monitoring and optimization.
  • Advanced Junos OS features: The QFX5200 switch supports features such as BGP add-path, MPLS, L3 VPN, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).
  • Disaggregated Junos software architecture: The QFX5200 supports a disaggregated version of Junos software with a modular architecture that allows the switch’s control and data plane processes and functions to run in parallel, maximizing utilization of the high-performance quad-core CPU.

QFX5200 Deployment Options

The following table depicts some of the many QFX5200 deployment options, including top-of-rack access as well as spineand-leaf configurations in a centralized or distributed gateway architecture.

Port Combinations Switch Deployment
48x10GbE + 6x40GbE QFX5200-48Y 10GbE access
48x25GbE + 6x100GbE QFX5200-48Y 25GbE access
32x100GbE QFX5200-32C Spine
128x25GbE QFX5200-32C Leaf
64x25GbE + 16x100GbE QFX5200-32C 25GbE access
96x10GbE + 8x100GbE QFX5200-32C 10GbE access

Figure 1 shows QFX5200-48Y 25GbE top-of-rack deployment with a Juniper Networks QFX10000 spine acting as a centralized gateway. In this topology, the QFX10000 switch can also be configured as a collapsed spine and edge device, acting as a centralized gateway for Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN), MPLS, and other tunneling protocols.


Figure 1: QFX5200-48Y and QFX10000 leaf-spine deployment

The QFX5200-32C can be deployed as a top-of-rack switch in a centralized gateway architecture. Figure 2 shows the QFX5200-32C as an access switch with a Juniper Networks QFX10000 spine configured as a centralized gateway. In this topology, the QFX10000 switch can also be configured as a collapsed spine and edge device, acting as a centralized gateway for VXLAN, MPLS, and other tunneling protocols. The 100GbE ports on QFX5200-32C can also be channelized to support 4x25GbE, 2x50GbE, or 4x10GbE downlinks.


Figure 2: QFX5200-32C and QFX10000 leaf-spine deployment with centralized gateway

The QFX5200-32C can also be positioned as a spine in a distributed gateway architecture. Figure 3 shows the QFX5110 as access switches configured as a distributed gateway along with the QFX5200 spine switch. The QFX5110 switches act as a distributed gateway for VXLAN and other tunneling protocols.
