Optical Transceiver Form Factors Comparison
Before getting into which form factors are compatible with each Juniper series, it’s helpful to review all the different form factors that you can use with Juniper hardware. Some are more common on older — even end-of-life — products, while others are more commonly used now.
In general, older form factors support slower Ethernet speeds and are less efficient — mainly because the multi-source agreements the older form factors are based on don’t meet today’s network standards. An example of that is the SFP form factor and the SFP+ form factor.
But different networks have different requirements, and if you’re using legacy hardware — or plan on purchasing some — you’ll need to make sure you buy a compatible form factor.
Optical Transceiver Compatibility Standards for Juniper Devices
Each line of Juniper hardware, including routers, switches and gateways, and the devices within each line, support different optical transceivers. Below is a breakdown of which optics are compatible with some of the most popular Juniper networking equipment we sell.
EX Series Switches
Juniper’s EX Series is comprised of a wide range of Ethernet switches, from small, fixed switches to large, modular switches that offer flexibility and scalability.
The lower-tier switches, including the EX2200, the EX2300, the EX3300, the EX3400, the EX4200 and the EX4300, are all access level switches with fixed configurations.
These switches support 1G and 10G Juniper optics, mostly in the form of SFP and SFP+ ports. But the EX3400 and the EX4300 switches also have QSFP+ ports that support up to 40G Ethernet. In addition, the end-of-life EX3200 and EX4200 switches support XFP uplink modules.
Aggregate-level — or mid-tier — EX Series switches, which include the EX4550 and the EX4600, are designed with SFP, SFP+ and QSFP+ ports.
The highest performing and only core-level EX Series switch, the EX9200, is available in three different modular chassis: the EX9204, the EX9208 and the EX9214. It supports line cards with SFP, SFP+, QSFP+ and QSFP28 ports, covering the full spectrum of available Ethernet speeds.
MX Series Routers
The MX Series offers routers ranging from compact, 1 RU devices to large-scale devices that are the height of an entire rack.
Although the entry-level routers, like the MX5, MX10, MX40, MX80 and MX104, are fixed-configuration devices, they still offer some modularity in the form of modular interface card (MIC) slots. The MICs for those models are designed with SFP and XFP slots.
But the MX Series routers that offer the most flexibility are the ones that support modular port concentrators (MPC), which hold up to two MICs.
Only the most advanced MX Series routers, including the MX240, MX480 and MX960, as well as the MX2008, MX2010 and MX2020 support MPCs, which are available in different models featuring nearly every port type, including SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, QSFP28, XFP and more.
Only the MX150 and MX204 are entirely fixed-configuration routers; the MX150 supports SFP and SFP+ Juniper optics and the MX204 supports SFP, SFP+, QSFP+ and QSFP28 optics.
The MX Series sets itself apart because it supports nearly every optical transceiver form factor, including SFP, SFP+, XFP, QSFP+ and QSFP28. It even supports some other, less common optics, like CFP and CXP optical transceivers.
QFX Series Switches
Another diverse line of Juniper switches, the QFX Series is mostly made up of fixed configuration devices, including the QFX5100, the QFX5110, the QFX5120, the QFX5200, the QFX5210 and the QFX10000, which includes the QFX10002, QFX10008 and QFX10016 modular chassis. We also stock end-of-life QFX3500 switches.
With the exception of the QFX5100, all QFX Series switches support up to 100G Ethernet, and they’re designed with a combination of SFP, SFP+, QSFP+ and QSFP28 ports. The QFX5100 supports up to 40G Ethernet and is made with SFP, SFP+ and QSFP+ ports.
SRX Series Gateways
This is Juniper’s premier line of firewall hardware; these devices offer connectivity, in addition to security services. The SRX Series includes three groups: gateways for small enterprises, gateways for mid-size enterprises and gateways for data centers and service providers.
The gateways designed for small-scale enterprises have a maximum Ethernet speed of 1G.
Most of the gateways for mid-size enterprises, including the SRX1400, SRX1500, SRX3400 and SRX3600, and the SRX4100 and SRX4200 support up to 10G Ethernet. Those devices are compatible with SFP, SFP+ and XFP Juniper optics.
Although the SRX4600 is made for mid-size enterprise applications, it supports both 10G Ethernet and 100G Ethernet, so it’s designed with SFP+ and QSFP28 ports.
The Juniper SRX Series gateways designed for large-scale data centers and service providers include the SRX5400, the SRX5600 and the SRX5800. These devices support up to 100G Ethernet and the ports are determined by the I/O cards (IOC) inserted in the IOC slots.
In terms of optics, they’re some of the most flexible devices available. The IOCs for the high performing SRX devices support SFP, SFP+, QSFP, QSFP+, CFP and CFP2 Juniper optics.
