SFP optics solution for Juniper EX2200 switch

The Juniper Networks EX2200 Ethernet Switch provides an affordable, entry-level, standalone solution for the access layer deployment of branch offices, remote offices and campus networks. This article introduces third-party compatible transceiver solution for Juniper EX2200 Switch.

Juniper EX2200 Switch Overview

Juniper Networks EX2200 series fixed-configuration Ethernet Switches with complete L2 switching and basic L3 switching to meet today’s high-performance enterprise branch offices and low-density wiring closet connectivity requirements. The product offers four platform configurations: 24 and 48 10/100 / 1000BASE-T ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) or without Power over Ethernet (PoE). The EX2200 Switch with Power over Ethernet (PoE) has a maximum system budget of 405 W and can deliver either 15.4 W of 802.3af Class 3 PoE-based power or 30 W of power over 802.3at PoE + to provide a converged network of telephones, cameras, Multi-station IEEE802.11n wireless access points and video phones and other networking equipment to provide support.

Juniper EX2200 Switch Features

The Juniper EX2200 series is a fixed-configuration Ethernet switch with full Layer 2 switching and basic Layer 3 switching with the following key features:

• Integrates 4 SFP Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports on the front panel to provide high-speed connectivity to aggregation switches and other upstream devices
• Fixed power and uplink ports for easy operation
• Low-power, low noise fan and 10-inch deep chassis for environmental protection and flexible deployment
• Support L2 protocol and L3 protocol (such as RIP and static routing) in the basic license
• The modular Junos operating system prevents switch restarts caused by a protocol failure
