Financial Facts

(Special Features) _(JNPR) _(JNPR) Core Routers Most service providers have a massive network consisting of many smaller networks that are interconnected via a network 'core'. This 'core' consists of a relatively small number of high capacity systems that transport huge volumes of data across the 'core' network, between the edge networks.. Juniper's core routers include the PTX Series and T Series product portfolios. Edge Routers The edge network is the on- and off- ramp for the service providers IP/MPLS network. Edge routers route data, voice, or video traffic to the core network, and then from the core to whatever network the data is headed for. Juniper's edge routers include the flagship MX Series 3D Universal Edge Router portfolio, which includes platforms that scale from 5Gbps through an industry-leading 80Tbps in a single edge chassis, as well as the E Series and M Series product families. "Access and Aggregation Switches and Routers" The access and aggregation network connects business and residential users with the service providers edge network. Switches dominate the access and aggregation network, these devices typically provide rapid Layer 2 forwarding and filtering of traffic, however, some service providers are beginning to deploy routers in this network as well. Juniper markets the flagship MX Series 3D Universal Edge Router portfolio, which also provides switching capabilities, as well as the ACX Mobile back-haul router in the access and aggregation network.. Enterprise: Business networks tend to need more features (e.g., network security) than normal edge routers can offer. Service routers have additional control and security features to protect data being sent from network to network and computer to computer. Juniper produces the J-Series line of service routers. Ethernet: Ethernet is the most prolific type of local area network. There are four main kinds of ethernet cabling, each allowing for faster and faster speeds, but a computer and/or router needs to have a special type of input to accept ethernet cables. Until very recently, Juniper's routers did not support ethernet, but the new MX-series of routers, as well as new models of their core, edge, and enterprise routers, do.
