The Juniper Networks EX4600 Ethernet switch is a highly versale, second generaon soluon for
campus environments. The EX4600 can be deployed in these environments:
• Campus distribuon
• Small campus core
• Top-of-rack in small, low -density data centers
• Data center distribuon in small, low -density data centers
In addion to operang as a standalone switch, the EX4600 switch can act as a member switch in a non-
mixed
Virtual Chassis
, a Virtual Chassis composed enrely of EX4600 switches, as well as parcipate as
member switches in a mixed Virtual Chassis with EX4300 switches. The switch oers a exible
conguraon of high-performance 10-gigabit and 40-gigabit ports to add higher port densies,
addional scalability, and improved latency to the EX Series of switches.
