Juniper PTX10001-36MR - Benefits of the PTX10001-36 MR; PTX10001-36 MR System Architecture

Benets of the PTX10001-36MR
• Scalability—The PTX10001-36MR scales to 9.6 Tbps in a single chassis, supporng up to 120 10GbE
interfaces, 30 40GbE, 96 100GbE interfaces (at line-rate), or 108 100GbE interfaces (oversubscribed),
and 24 400GbE interfaces, giving cloud and service providers the performance and scalability needed
as networks grow.
• Performance—The PTX10001-36MR uses the next-generaon ASIC in the Junos Express silicon
family, Juniper Triton silicon, to deliver inline MACsec on all 100-Gigabit and 400-Gigabit speed
interfaces for dense 400-Gigabit architectures. The PTX10001-36MR’s exceponal packet
processing capabilies help alleviate the challenge of scaling the network as trac levels increase.
• High availability hardware—The PTX10001-36MR is engineered with hardware redundancy for
cooling, power supplies, and forwarding. With the PTX10001-36MR’s high availability, service
providers can maintain an always-on infrastructure base that helps meet stringent SLAs across the
core.
• Space eciency—The PTX10001-36MR’s ultra-compact 1-U form factor eciency is a crical
requirement for space and power constrained internet exchange locaons, remote central oces,
and embedded peering points throughout the network. The PTX10001-36MR delivers a power
eciency of 0.2 was/Gbps.
PTX10001-36MR System Architecture
The PTX10001-36MR is a xed-conguraon router that supports 10-Gbps, 25-Gbps, 40-Gbps, 100-
Gbps, and 400-Gbps port speeds in a single 1-U stackable plaorm.
• Control operaons are performed by the Roung Engine, which runs the Juniper Networks Junos OS
Evolved operang system (Junos OS Evolved). The Roung Engine handles roung protocols, trac
engineering, policy, policing, monitoring, and conguraon management. Junos OS Evolved is
installed on the PTX10001-36MR router’s two internal 200-gigabyte M.2 SATA solid-state drives
(SSDs). The Roung Engine is enhanced by a 2.1-GHz 12 core Intel CPU and 64 GB of RAM.
• Forwarding operaons are performed by the Packet Forwarding Engine, which uses Juniper
Networks Triton silicon. The custom ASICs enable the PTX10001-36MR to provide up to 9.6 Tbps of
bandwidth.
