The Juniper Networks MX10003 Universal Routing Platform is an Ethernet-optimized edge router with
2.4Tb capacity that provide both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The MX10003 router runs
Junos operating system (Junos OS), enabling a wide range of business and residential applications and
services, including high-speed transport and virtual private network (VPN) services, next-generation
broadband multiplay services, and high-volume Internet data center internetworking. Each router provides
full duplex, high-density Ethernet interfaces and high- capacity switching throughput and uses the Junos
Trio chipset for increased scalability of Layer 2/Layer 3 packet forwarding, buffering, and queuing.
Benefits of the MX10003 Router
•
Space-optimized, power-efficient cloud-era routing platform—The MX10003 caters to the edge and
Metro Ethernet needs of service providers, mobile operators, multiple-service operators in space- and
power-constrained environments. Delivering 2.4 Tbps of throughput in just three rack units (3 U), the
MX10003 delivers industry-leading port density and performance while consuming just 0.9 watts per
gigabit of throughput.
•
Integrated high-precision timing—The MX10003 router eliminates the need for external clocks by
supporting highly scalable and reliable hardware-based timing including Synchronous Ethernet for
frequency, and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for frequency and phase synchronization. The router uses
a hybrid mode, combining Synchronous Ethernet and PTP, to achieve a high level of frequency (10 ppb)
and phase (<1.5 uS) accuracy.
•
Simplified management through Junos Fusion—You can use the MX10003 as aggregation devices in a
Junos Fusion Provider Edge deployment, where EX Series and QFX Series switches function as satellite
devices.
