'Juniper unveils MX Series router, line card with EANTC'
(DMeurope Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) The European Advanced Network Test Center has completed a commissioned performance verification of the Juniper Networks MX80 3D Universal Edge Router and new 16 port 10GbE aggregation line card. This validation demonstrates the 3D Scaling technology using the Junos Trio chipset. The Junos Trio chipset is a member of the Junos One family of processors that represents advanced integration of silicon and software. EANTC tested the Junos Trio-based products and verified the MX Series 3D routers density, throughput performance and service scale, as well as power efficiency using Ixia IxNetwork equipment. The EANTC tests confirm the performance metrics of the MX480 3D Universal Edge Router, validating up to 1.4 Tbps, 240 Gbps per slot unidirectional throughput able to exceed one billion packets per second, in a compact sixth of a rack configuration. The services scale displayed 6,000 active layer 3 VPNs and 6,000 active VPLS instances, as well as a 25.34 watts per 10GbE port in full configuration. Junos Trio represents Juniper's fourth generation of purpose-built silicon. The chipset will be delivered in Juniper's new MX Series 3D routers, providing edge routing for business, residential and mobile services on a single network. Juniper's MX Series 3D products will be available starting December. The MX Series 3D 16-port 10GbE aggregation line card will be generally available to customers in December, with additional MX Series 3D products coming throughout 2010.
