Networks are facing exponential data growth and changing traffic patterns as cloud, 5G, and AI become more prominent. Internet exchange providers, collocation facilities, and service providers of all types seek platforms that can flexibly scale up and scale out efficiently, securely, and at a low cost per bit. The PTX10004 are next-generation modular routers that are leading the 400G transition with new architectures and high-performance networking silicon. These modular platforms share a common set of components and full feature sets, with various 400GbE-capable line cards available to satisfy specific core, peering, data center, and metro-core deployments in the most demanding environments.
The PTX10004 Modular Router is the ultra-compact, ultra-high-density router for today's space- and power-constrained facilities, supporting 400GbE architectures with inline Media Access Control Security (MACsec) on all ports for uncompromised security. The PTX10004 scales from 19.2 Tbps to 57.6 Tbps in a compact 7 U platform, design-optimized for data center and colocation racks.
Powered by Juniper's custom Triton silicon, the PTX10004 delivers predictable IP/MPLS packet performance and functionality for multirate 100GbE/400GbE QSFP-DD. The PTX10004 is equipped with four slots, supporting from 4.8 Tbps to 14.4 Tbps per slot. A fully equipped PTX10004 with 4.8 Tbps line cards can support 192 100GbE and 16 400GbE ports. A fully equipped PTX10004 with 14.4 Tbps line cards can support 576 10GbE, 576 25GbE, 144 40GbE, 576 100GbE, or 144 400GbE ports.
