Specifications

   Description
  • The Juniper EX4550-EM-2QSFP is a high-performance expansion module built for the Juniper EX4550 Series Ethernet switches. It adds two 40GbE QSFP+ ports, enabling ultra-high-speed uplinks, stacking, or inter-switch connections. Supporting hot-swappable installation, this module enhances bandwidth without interrupting live network operations.
  • With support for virtual chassis, MPLS, QoS, Layer 2/3 protocols, and Junos OS integration, the module is ideal for enterprise networks and data centers requiring high-throughput, low-latency, and scalable connectivity.
   Features
  • 2x 40GbE QSFP+ ports — ideal for ultra-fast uplinks or stacking
  • Hot-swappable design — upgrade without disrupting network services
  • Compatible with EX4550 series (e.g., EX4550-32T, EX4550-32F models)
  • Supports Virtual Chassis technology for stacking up to 10 switches
  • Flexible deployment — use for spine-leaf, core-to-aggregation, or east-west traffic
  • Enterprise features — supports VLANs, MPLS, QoS, link aggregation, and access control
  • Seamless integration with Junos OS and existing EX4550 infrastructure
  • Compatible with various QSFP+ optics (not included; sold separately)
