Home Networking Network Switches Juniper EX4650-48Y-AFI 25GbE/100GbE Data Center Ethernet Switch

Juniper EX4650-48Y-AFI 25GbE/100GbE Data Center Ethernet Switch

Brand:

The Juniper EX4650-48Y-AFI is a fixed 1U high-density Ethernet switch built for data center, aggregation, and high-performance enterprise networking. It combines 48 SFP28 ports supporting 1/10/25GbE with 8 QSFP28 ports supporting 40/100GbE, plus Junos OS Layer 2/Layer 3 capabilities, EVPN-VXLAN, Virtual Chassis, MC-LAG, and ESI-LAG. Its back-to-front airflow and redundant 650W AC power supplies make it suited to rack environments requiring high port density, resiliency, and scalable network architecture.

OVERVIEW

  • The EX4650-48Y-AFI is a 1U fixed data center and aggregation switch delivering dense 1/10/25GbE access with 40/100GbE uplink capability and Junos OS Layer 2/Layer 3 networking. Compatibility: SFP/SFP+/SFP28 and QSFP+/QSFP28 transceivers; breakout can provide additional 10/25GbE interfaces. Compared with EX4650-48Y-AFO: the AFI model uses back-to-front airflow, making it the appropriate choice for racks requiring that cooling direction. 

USE CASES

  • Data center server connectivity
  • 25GbE leaf or aggregation deployment
  • 100GbE spine connectivity
  • High-density enterprise network aggregation
  • EVPN-VXLAN data center fabrics
  • Virtualized server and storage networks
  • Campus core and distribution environments
  • Network modernization from 10GbE to 25GbE
  • Mixed-speed 1/10/25/40/100GbE environments
  • Rack deployments requiring back-to-front airflow

KEY FEATURES

  • 48 SFP28 ports with 1/10/25GbE support: Enables dense server and network-device connectivity while allowing organizations to migrate from 10GbE to 25GbE without replacing the switching platform. 
  • 8 QSFP28 uplink ports: Provides 40GbE or 100GbE connectivity for high-capacity spine, aggregation, and inter-switch links. 
  • Breakout and channelization support: Allows selected 40/100GbE ports to be configured for additional 10/25GbE interfaces, increasing deployment flexibility and port utilization. 
  • Junos OS Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking: Delivers switching, routing, and security capabilities through a mature network operating system, reducing the need for separate platforms for core network functions. 
  • EVPN-VXLAN support: Provides a foundation for scalable overlay networking and modern data center fabric architectures. 
  • Virtual Chassis, MC-LAG and ESI-LAG: Supports resilient architectures and simplified logical network operations for environments where uptime and redundancy are priorities. 
  • 1U fixed configuration: Packs high-speed port density into a compact rack footprint, helping reduce rack-space consumption.
  • Redundant 1+1 650W AC power supplies: Maintains power redundancy while supporting continuous network operation if one power supply fails. 
  • 4+1 redundant fan configuration: Provides cooling redundancy for higher availability in data center deployments. 
  • Back-to-front airflow on AFI model: Aligns cooling direction with racks designed for this airflow pattern.
