Description

The QFX3600 is a 1U data centre switch from the Juniper QFX Series, built for top-of-rack aggregation of high-performance servers. It suits data centres and containerised data centres, and can be deployed as a QFabric node or interconnect, a QFX Virtual Chassis member, a leaf in a QFX5100 Virtual Chassis Fabric, or a standalone Layer 2/Layer 3 switch running Junos OS.

This AFO variant provides sixteen 40GbE QSFP+ ports with 1.28 Tbps of switching throughput and 960 Mpps of forwarding capacity. Ports can be channelised to 10GbE for mixed-speed server connectivity. It operates in cut-through and store-and-forward modes. Airflow is AFO (back-to-front, port side to FRU side), which suits hot and cold aisle layouts, and three redundant fans are fitted. There is no PoE.

Two AC power supplies are required for operation, and the airflow-matched unit is the JPSU-650W-AC-AFO. The switch works with QSFP+ 40GbE optics and DACs.
