Juniper QFX10016 Redundant TAA-Compliant Chassis

Equipment Overview

The Juniper QFX10016-REDUND-T is a TAA-compliant redundant chassis version of the flagship QFX10016 switch, engineered for scalable data center cores and IP fabric spine layers. Built on the Juniper Q5 ASIC with deep buffers, this platform delivers high-throughput performance with minimal packet loss under sustained load. Operating on Junos OS, it is designed to aggregate traffic from leaf switches and support EVPN-VXLAN-based network architectures. The chassis is purpose-built for high-density environments requiring carrier-grade reliability and deterministic latency.

Main Parameters

• Form Factor: 19-inch rack-mountable chassis
• Platform: Juniper QFX10000 series spine/core data center switch
• Chipset: Juniper Q5 ASIC with deep buffers
• Operating System: Junos OS
• Compliance: TAA (Trade Agreements Act) certified
• Redundancy: Dual power supplies and fan modules included

Key Advantages

This model is selected for enterprise and government projects requiring TAA compliance, ensuring eligibility for U.S. federal and defense procurement. The deep-buffer Q5 chipset supports burst-heavy workloads and lossless fabric operation, critical for spine-tier aggregation. Its redundant configuration minimizes single points of failure, aligning with high-availability SLAs in mission-critical data centers.

Compatibility & Integration

The QFX10016-REDUND-T integrates with leaf switches in IP fabric designs and supports EVPN-VXLAN for overlay networking. It is compatible with Juniper Junos OS environments and is suited for DCI (Data Center Interconnect) deployments between facilities. The platform adheres to industry-standard 19-inch rack mounting and operates within QFX10000 series ecosystem.
