ACX7348 Cloud Metro Router

Traffic growth and new cloud service models are changing metro network requirements. The ACX7300 line from Juniper’s ACX7000 Family of sustainable routers sets new standards for capacity, density, cost efficiency, and latency to meet them.

The ACX7348, part of the ACX7300 line, is an industrial-rated router designed for multiservice applications. It combines the value of a fixed redundant platform with three bays of modularity that deliver customizable, build-as-you-grow scalability, high availability, and exceptional performance.

The router provides 1GbE-to-400GbE port flexibility, unrestricted high-power ZR/ZR+ transceiver support, and massive forwarding capacity in a compact, power-efficient footprint. Powered by Junos® OS Evolved  and Juniper Paragon™ Automation, it supports advanced features, such as Segment Routing (SR), SRv6, MPLS, EVPN-VXLAN, advanced programmability, network slicing, and telemetry.
