The Juniper ACX7100 line of Cloud Metro Routers delivers groundbreaking 4.8 Tbps forwarding capacity in a compact 1U footprint, engineered specifically for high-density 5G, IoT, and cloud aggregation across service provider and enterprise networks. Featuring two versatile models—the ACX7100-32C and ACX7100-48L—this series supports a wide array of native port speeds from 10GbE to 400GbE, providing a "build-as-you-grow" scaling model with an efficient thermal design that allows for unrestricted high-power ZR/ZR+ transceiver use. Built for mission-critical reliability, these routers include redundant, field-replaceable fans and power supplies, alongside advanced Cloud Metro capabilities such as Segment Routing (SRv6), EVPN-VXLAN, and Class C precision timing (PTP/GNSS) for latency-sensitive applications. By integrating deep buffering and comprehensive network slicing into a power-efficient, ruggedized design, the ACX7100 line offers a future-proof, cost-effective solution for modernizing metro architectures and ensuring a differentiated user experience.
