Product Overview
The Juniper QFX5230-64CD-AFO-T is a 1U, high-performance 400GbE data center switch designed for IP fabric networks, spine-and-leaf architectures, and AI/ML workloads. This TAA-compliant model features AC power supplies and AFO (Airflow Optimized) cooling for optimized deployment in diverse environments. With 64 x 400GbE QSFP-DD ports supporting breakout configurations, it delivers massive scale for cloud-scale data centers.
Architecture & Performance
Built for ultra-low latency and wire-rate performance, the QFX5230-64CD-AFO-T offers 51.2 Tbps switching capacity and 6.4 Bpps forwarding rate. It includes 32 GB shared buffer for handling microbursts in congested fabrics. Supports advanced EVPN-VXLAN for overlay fabrics, full L3 routing (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS), and high scale (MAC: 512K, Routes: 1M IPv4). Ideal for 400G spines with sub-microsecond latency.
Deployment Flexibility
AFO cooling ensures efficient thermal management. AC power with redundant PSUs. Supports Junos OS with zero-touch provisioning, rich APIs (NETCONF, REST), and telemetry for operational excellence.
