The QFX5100-24Q-AA switch has a 2.5 GHz 4-core Intel CPU with 32 GB of memory and 128 GB of SSD
storage.
The QFX5100 line of switches include both 10GE and 40GE fixed-configurations:
•
QFX5100-48S
As shown in Figure 2 on page 13, the QFX5100-48S is a 10-Gigabit Ethernet Enhanced Small Form-Factor
Pluggable (SFP+) top-of-rack switch with 48 SFP+ ports and 6 Quad SFP+ (QSFP+) ports. Each SFP+
port can operate as a native 10 Gigabit port, when 10 Gbps optics are used. The SFP+ ports can also
run at 1 Gbps, or at 100 Mbps speeds when 1_Gigabit optics are inserted. Each QSFP+ port (48 through
53) can operate as uplink ports or four QSFP+ port (50 through 53) can operate at native 40-Gigabit
speed or as 4 independent 10-Gigabit port speeds. The 6 QSFP+ ports can be used as either access
ports or as uplinks. The QFX5100-48S provides full duplex throughput of 1.44 Tbps. The QFX5100-48S
has a 1 U form factor and comes standard with redundant fans and redundant power supplies. The switch
can be ordered with either ports-to-FRUs or FRUs-to-ports airflow and with AC or DC power supplies.

The QFX5100-48S can be used as:
•
A standalone switch.
•
A Node device in a QFabric system.
The QFX5100-48S is supported on both the QFX3000-G and QFX3000-M QFabric systems.
•
A primary, backup, or line card in a QFX Virtual Chassis.
A QFX Virtual Chassis allows you to interconnect up to 10 QFX3500, QFX3600, or QFX5100 switches
into one logical device and manage the device as a single chassis using a ring topology.
•
A line card in a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis.
A QFX5110 Virtual Chassis must have a QFX5110-32Q as the primary. Only QFX5110 and select
models of QFX5100 can participate in a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis.
•
A spine or leaf device in a standard QFX5100 Virtual Chassis Fabric (VCF).
VCF uses Virtual Chassis technology to interconnect multiple devices into a single logical device and
manage that device as a single logical device inside of a fabric architecture. VCF architecture supports
up to 20 total devices in a spine and leaf topology. Out of the 20 total devices, you can configure a
maximum of 4 spine devices.
