1/2u 100g Metro-E Aggregation Switch

Anyone know of any alternatives to the Ciena 5170 Service Aggregation Switch? I am looking for something that has 4 100g ports for metro ethernet in a 1/2u form factor.

QFX5110-48S, 4x100 or 4x40 plus 48 SFP+

Wait for the ACX5448 coming soon.

Any further details on this? I haven't seen any press releases from Juniper.

I just heard from a Juniper sales person about the ACX5448 (code name ACX5k+ or ACX+ or something like that) and about (4) 100 gig ports... also, about another ACX5k variant that may have 25 gig (25 gig is something the linux server engineer I work with has been talking about in his next datacenter server refresh)....

Anybody else know anything about ACX5448 (ACX+) ?

-Aaron

The presentation I saw listed the two, 5448 and ACX+ as different products. 5448 listed as Committed while the ACX+ was listed as Under Planning. They were also shown to be targeted at different markets, 1G/10G with 100G and 10G/25G/100G.

Thanks, I too saw a 7 page preso, but no mention of 25 gig. Which one had 25gig ?

-Aaron

ACX+

5448 seems to be the 48 port 1g/10g with 4x100g

Presentation I'm talking about is a 69 pager from the 2017 Global Tech Summit.

Preso I just looked at shows a spec for one of those boxes as having what appears to be break-out capability of the 100 gig interfaces to be (10's, 25's and 40's)... wondering if that would be true of those 100 gig ports on the ACX5448 as well ? if not, why not?

-Aaron

I was going to say, 'JFGI', but Extreme really don't make these things
easy to find any more...
