TX Matrix
The TX Matrix is the industry’s leading multichassis core system, enabling up to four T640 systems to be interconnected with a fabric chassis creating a 3.2Tbps node. It enables service providers to protect investments and scale their network on demand, and is automatically upgradeable to the next generation multichassis technology.
Juniper Networks TX Matrix is the central switching and routing element that interconnects up to four T640 chassis into a single routing entity with 32 slots and a sustainable throughput rate of up to 3.2 Tbps (7.68 billion pps). With TX Matrix, operators can build systems containing up to four line-card chassis for a total of up to 160/320 10GbE (line rate/oversubscribed) ports, and 32 40Gbps.
The TX Matrix scales gracefully as more ports are added—additional routers and slots are connected to the center stage fabric over optical interfaces. Thus, TX Matrix expands network capacity with non-blocking bandwidth. The scalable configurations of the TX Matrix increases equipment lifespan and further reduces CapEx costs, and most importantly enables operators to seamlessly grow with explosive traffic growth. It is also upgradeable to next generation multi chassis technology.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Densest Multi-terabit capacity and multichassis scalability | Explosive growth in social networking, video and many other applications are driving traffic growth exponentially. The T Series scale and density allows service providers to increase seamlessly as the needs grow. |
| High availability systems | High availability (HA) and continuous operation are critical in core routing, where loss of a single routing node can remove service for a wide geographical area. Offering full ISSU support, the T Series is the most reliable system powering core networks today. Key benefits include higher network availability, better network stability, easier operations, and less operational risks. |
| In Service Hardware Upgrade | Any T Series chassis can be upgraded to a future generation system while in full service. One of the most popular innovations from Juniper, this feature offers operators unprecedented investment protection to future technology. |
| Widest range of interface support | With the highest densities in Ethernet and SONET/SDH interfaces, the T Series not only powers some of the largest Ethernet and SONET/SDH cores but is also key to the operators in the transition phase to Ethernet. |
