The EX9250 line of Ethernet switches provides compact, programmable, and scalable core and aggregation devices for enterprise environments, reducing cost and complexity while offering carrier-class reliability. The EX9250 Ethernet switches dramatically simplify campus and data center architectures by enabling Evolved Enterprise Core deployments with Junos Fusion Enterprise and Ethernet VPN, creating a path to a 100GbE core.
Simplified network architectures
The EX9250 line of switches is ideal for simplifying campus, data center, and combined campus and data center network environments by collapsing network layers. When deployed in a multichassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) configuration in the campus, the EX9250 switches eliminate the need for Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and collapse the core and aggregation layers, dramatically simplifying the network architecture and network operations. Similarly, in the data center, the EX9250 switches can be used to collapse core and aggregation layers. When used with Juniper access switches in an MC-LAG configuration, the EX9251 reduces the number of managed devices by more than 50% and eliminates the need for STP. In combined campus and data center environments, the EX9250 line consolidates network layers to simplify the network architecture and operations. In all scenarios, the EX9250 line of switches delivers a simple, secure, virtualized network environment that increases enterprise business agility.
High availability
When serving as core switches, the EX9250 line delivers a number of high availability features that ensure uninterrupted, carrier-class performance in addition to redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and field-replaceable fans.
