Juniper MX204 is a compact, 1U rackmount, SDN-enabled universal routing platform delivering 400 Gbps of switching and routing capacity for high-density edge, metro Ethernet, data center, and uCPE/NFV deployment. Engineered for cloud-grade performance and carrier-class reliability, it brings the full power of Juniper’s MX Series to space- and power-constrained environments—ideal for service providers, mobile operators, and web-scale networks.

• Form Factor: 1U rackmount (44.7 × 4.45 × 47.5 cm / 17.6 × 1.75 × 18.7 in), compact and rack-efficient.
• System Throughput: 400 Gbps full-duplex switching fabric, supporting high-speed 10GbE/40GbE/100GbE interfaces
• Port Configuration:
  • 4 × QSFP28/QSFP+ ports (configurable as 100GbE, 40GbE, or breakout to 4×10GbE each)
  • 8 × SFP+ ports (10GbE) for additional edge connectivity
• Chipset & OS: Powered by Junos OS and programmable Trio chipset, enabling advanced L2/L3 routing, switching, security, and SDN automation
• Power Efficiency: Ultra-low power consumption of 0.9 W/Gb, with redundant AC/DC power supplies (100–240V AC, -40–-72V DC) for 99.99% uptime.
• Cooling & Redundancy: 3 hot-swappable fan trays, NEBS-compliant design, and redundant components for maximum reliability.
• Management & Automation: Junos Telemetry Interface, IPMI, Junos PyEZ, and OpenConfig support for real-time monitoring, analytics, and self-driving network operations
• Timing Support: Precision timing (PTP, SyncE) for mobile (5G/4G) and financial service requirements
• Environment: Operating temperature 0°C to 55°C (32°F to 131°F), 5%–90% non-condensing humidity.

• Metro Ethernet & Edge Routing: High-performance aggregation for service provider and enterprise networks
• Data Center Interconnect (DCI): Low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity between data centers
• uCPE & NFV: Universal Customer Premise Equipment for virtualized network functions (firewall, NAT, VPN)
• 5G/4G Mobile Edge: MEC and radio access network (RAN) aggregation with precise timing
• Cloud & Web-Scale Networks: SDN-ready routing for cloud peering, content delivery, and high-volume traffic
