The Juniper EX2300-48T is a compact, high-performance Layer 2 and Layer 3 Ethernet switch, delivering enterprise-grade functionality in a cost-effective form factor. This fixed-configuration switch features 48 10/100/1000BASE-T ports and four high-speed 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+ uplink ports, making it ideal for access-layer deployments in branch offices, campus networks, and remote sites where performance, efficiency, and reliability are essential.
With support for Juniper’s Virtual Chassis technology, the EX2300-48T allows up to four switches to be interconnected and operated as a single logical device. This dramatically simplifies network management and supports seamless scalability. Integrated Layer 3 features, including RIP, OSPF, and static routing, offer enhanced control and flexibility for dynamic network environments.
Optimised for energy efficiency, the EX2300-48T supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and low-acoustic fans, while its 10.2-inch depth allows for easy deployment in space-constrained environments. Managed through the Juniper Mist Cloud with Wired Assurance, it provides AI-driven insights and automation to improve operational simplicity and network reliability.
