ACX7000 Family Portfolio Highlights

The Juniper Networks® ACX7000 family, managed by Junos® OS Evolved and Juniper Paragon Automation, is purposely built for the IP service fabric underlay of a Juniper Cloud Metro. Leveraging the industry’s fastest chipsets, the portfolio presents a unique and innovative balance of leading-edge platform design, technologies, and capabilities to deliver the industry’s most sustainable and high-performance routing portfolio. The ACX7000 family delivers a broad range of fixed, fixed-plus-modular, and modular multiservice routers (including environmentally rated options) providing highly flexible and scalable build-as-you-grow native port speeds from 1GbE to 400GbE, high-power ZR/ZR+ support, breakout cable options for more granular port speed deployments, and high-capacity platforms pre-engineered to support future port speeds. Every ACX7000 platform includes active service assurance and zero trust security embedded, enabling operators to deliver highly reliable and differentiated customer experiences.

Individually, ACX7000 platforms bring leading-edge performance, scale, and capability to any deployment. When building a comprehensive Juniper Cloud Metro architecture consisting of multiple ACX7000 platforms, new dimensions of end-to-end operational capability, performance, and simplicity are realized. These cloud metro routers excel in three key areas: exceptional TCO, investment protection, and cloud metro-ready to deliver experience-first networking for residential, enterprise, wholesale, and 4G/5G mobile services.

  • Complete Portfolio: The ACX7000 family covers all use case and deployment scenarios, from fixed compact and environmental-rated (C-Temp and I-Temp) 1 U platforms, to fixed-plus-modular (E-Temp and I-Temp), and fully modular systems capable of highly scalable throughput and capacity. All platforms are equipped with a full suite of Layer 2/Layer 3 and MPLS routing features and protocols, while supporting scale-up, scale-out, and hybrid architectures for both greenfield and brownfield deployments. The unique capabilities enable operators to evolve across protocol generations at their own pace.
  • Sustainable High-Performance Platforms: The ACX7000 family sets new operational benchmarks for energy efficiency, space efficiency, fabric capacity, port density, and flexibility of both port speed and optics options. Juniper’s use of multi-rate ports simplifies today’s most common 1GbE to 10GbE and 100GbE to 400GbE service migrations, including cloud-inspired 25GbE and 50GbE options, on a port-by-port basis without a forklift. Cooling and power innovations enable these platforms to support unrestricted use of today’s and tomorrow’s high-power transceivers on all supporting ports.
  • Timing and Synchronization: The ACX7000 family delivers precision timing and advanced timing capabilities, for ultra-reliable low-latency communications to leverage the full potential of 5G and to confidently offer and deliver differentiated service-level agreements (SLAs).
  • Juniper Paragon Automation: When a Cloud Metro network is enabled by Paragon Automation engineering and operation teams gain efficiency and the ability to deliver exceptional user experiences. Paragon Automation speeds up scenario planning, bulletproofs network design, and accelerates device onboarding while keeping operations ahead of issues and guaranteeing that services are delivered right the first time and every time.
  • Network as the Experience Sensor: Juniper embeds Juniper Paragon Active Assurance test agents directly into Junos OS Evolved operating system in every ACX7000 platform, turning an entire Cloud Metro network into an “Experience Sensor” that proactively assures user experience without requiring advanced expertise or tedious manual effort.  
  • Zero Trust Security: ACX7000 family platforms feature a unique, cryptographically bound device identity that cannot be spoofed by hackers. The moment a Juniper Cloud Metro platform boots, it automatically verifies device authenticity and integrity, attesting that neither hardware nor software has been tampered with and activating RFC-compliant secure zero-touch provisioning (sZTP).

 

Use Cases and Applications

Juniper Networks ACX Series portfolio offers a variety of multiservice platforms. The ACX7000 family overlaps and extends the breadth of Juniper’s multiservice routing portfolio, and when deployed as the primary product family within a Juniper Cloud Metro architecture, bolstered by Junos OS Evolved and Paragon Automation, operators unlock an added layer of performance, capability, and operational simplicity that facilitates new pathways to, and benchmarks for, highly differentiated user experiences. Use case support includes: 

  • Universal Metro Routing: ACX7000 family support a full suite of routing features, allowing operators to customize deployment models to achieve their business objectives. Create a converged multiservice architecture that best supports your business, residential, and wholesale connectivity service needs. The ACX7000 family can be deployed as highly versatile multiservice routers enabling Ethernet VPN (EVPN), virtual private LAN service (VPLS), MPLS label-switching router (LSR), SR-MPLS, SRv6, and as Layer 2 Ethernet or Layer 3 IP services. All platforms incorporate packet optical convergence capabilities enabling dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) wavelengths to extend reach over dark fiber, to efficiently interconnect IP/packet and DWDM networks and support passive optical network (PON) deployments leveraging Juniper Unified PON technology. See, Leveraging Packet Optical Convergence section.
  • Data Center and Edge Compute: The ACX7000 family is ideal for service provider and data center/cloud applications, with support for multiple overlay encapsulation methods. Select platforms also support data plane security with inline Media Access Control Security (MACsec) on all ports.
  • Enterprise WAN: Enterprises and government agencies worldwide use ACX Series platforms to build their own L2, L3, and MPLS networks. The common and synchronized feature set provided across all ACX7000 family platforms makes it an ideal selection to ensure that operators of enterprise WAN networks can easily, confidently, and securely interconnect with public service provider networks.
  • Mobile Backhaul: ACX7000 family platforms support industry-leading, highly scalable, and reliable hardware-based timing that meets the strictest 4G/5G requirements. These include advanced timing, Synchronous Ethernet for frequency, and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for frequency and phase synchronization, enabling deployment in next-generation mobile networks such as 4G/5G.

 

Leveraging Packet Optical Convergence

When the application calls for increased transport capacity, reach, resiliency, or interconnecting an IP/packet network to an optical transport network, deploying a platform that offers integrated DWDM interfaces is convenient and cost effective. Referred to as packet optical convergence platforms, they can convert Ethernet circuits into a DWDM signal, which can be multiplexed with other DWDM channels onto a single fiber, enabling efficient transport over an optical layer to eliminate additional, costly, standalone DWDM transponders.

The advent of small form-factor technologies like QSFP56-DD pluggable optics and 400ZR/ZR+ pluggable transceivers, enables the selection on a port-by-port basis between grey client interfaces (400G LR4) for shorter distances or coherent DWDM interfaces (400ZR/ZR+) for longer distances, as well as transport over an active optical line system—without sacrificing platform density. Juniper integrates QSFP-DD interfaces in its solutions, including the ACX7000 family, enabling considerable capital savings and substantial sustainability benefits for operators compared to the traditional use of external DWDM transponders.

Architecture and Key Components

Powered by Junos OS Evolved, the ACX7000 family adds a new dimension of capability to the Juniper routing portfolio for service provider, large enterprise, and data center operations. Designed to address the rapid growth of mobile, video, and edge compute services, the ACX7000 family builds upon Juniper’s proven IP/MPLS leadership that spans from access and aggregation to edge and core. As services change, so must service architectures. 

The emergence of 5G, IoT, and cloud is forcing an evolution in how services are delivered. What’s needed are purpose-built platforms that create an agile IP service fabric capable of intelligently steering traffic between user and network resource—whether the service is hosted in a physical network device or it’s a virtual and dynamic instantiation hosted across a distributed cloud. Operators capable of strategically positioning service instantiations to maximize performance and minimize latency over a single, converged architecture will optimize capital investments, reduce operational expenses, and enable highly differentiated and compelling user experiences.

  • Juniper Cloud Metro: Juniper Cloud Metro (Figure 1) is a converged multiservice networking solution that takes the most powerful cloud principles used in massive hyperscale data centers and adapts them to metro networking. It optimizes the experiences of both network operators and the customers they serve, and it redefines outcomes from being purely connectivity-driven, to being completely experience-driven. A Juniper Cloud Metro, deployable in both brownfield and greenfield environments, intelligently and cost efficiently steers traffic to the best physical and virtual resource to minimize latency and optimize user experiences. It also leverages automation to accelerate and simplify network operations and showcase service delivery sophistication and quality that only network operators, and their Juniper Cloud Metro networks can achieve:
    • One converged Juniper Cloud Metro for all use cases
    • Agile service delivery with advanced network slicing and embedded active assurance
    • Advanced protocols, timing, scale, and automation
  • Flexible capacity: A wide variety of ACX7000 platform and pluggable optics options gives operators the flexibility to position the right device at every edge location. Choose interface options from 1GbE to 400GbE with ZR/ZR+ support. All Juniper Cloud Metro systems use the same consistent Junos OS Evolved operating system providing consistent and extensible performance across an entire ACX7000 deployment. Pay for only the bandwidth, optics and features needed, when they are needed, with a Juniper Cloud Metro that evolves with your business without chassis forklifts.
  • Converged traffic-handling: A Juniper Cloud Metro is built for network slicing, enabling any-to-any intelligent traffic steering across the distributed network to meet SLAs. Every Juniper Cloud Metro platform supports EVPN overlays, IPv6 Segment Routing (SRv6), and Layer 2/Layer 3 VPN. Operators can converge all metro use cases—residential, business, mobile xHaul transport—onto a single converged architecture, with a single operational model. They can also grow revenues by supporting diverse new services, each with its own quality requirements and SLAs, over the same converged infrastructure.
  • Build-as-you-grow scalability: Juniper Cloud Metro offers a more sustainable approach to ongoing network expansion. As demand grows, operators can continue using traditional scale-up approaches in existing ring architectures. But alongside them, all Juniper Cloud Metro systems support the same scale-out models—and spine-leaf architectures—that public cloud providers use in hyperscale data centers. By building a next-generation edge with smaller distributed platforms, each serving fewer subscribers, network resources are aligned more closely with demand while reducing the “blast radius” if any node goes down. 
  • Embedded Paragon Active Assurance: Traditional networks require complex standalone solutions to validate network devices and services. Juniper embeds Paragon Active Assurance test agents directly into the Junos OS Evolved operating system in every ACX7000 family platform, turning your entire Juniper Cloud Metro into an “Experience Sensor” that continually detects and fixes problems—without advanced expertise or tedious manual effort. Operators can proactively assure end-to-end 5G services, verifying that, for example, new cell sites are ready to serve customers or that edge clouds will meet SLA requirements for a new network slice, before the service is delivered. Incident resolution times are cut in half as most problems are identified and fixed before they affect customers—translating to happier, more loyal subscribers.
  • Embedded Zero Trust security: With a Juniper Cloud Metro architecture, zero trust security is engineered into the IP services fabric. Each ACX7000 platform features a unique, cryptographically bound device identity that can’t be spoofed by hackers. The moment a Juniper Cloud Metro platform boots, it automatically verifies device authenticity and integrity, attesting that neither hardware nor software has been tampered with and activating RFC-compliant secure zero-touch provisioning (sZTP). This enhanced Juniper Cloud Metro security fabric also features native disk and file encryption to protect data at rest and offers MACsec to safeguard data in motion. Using the security built into your Juniper Cloud Metro architecture, risk is reduced to better protect users and the network. This enables operators to explore a wider range of new edge experiences that can be delivered to customers with confidence. 

Together, these capabilities create a more scalable, assured, and secure IP service fabric underlay for your Juniper Cloud Metro that’s optimized for the explosion of new devices and applications at the edge. They provide a powerful foundation to deliver next-generation edge services and network slices to achieve and drive sustainable business outcomes.

 

Business Growth

Juniper Cloud Metro solutions are optimized to enable sustainable business growth with a focus on addressing profits, people, and the planet holistically, while delivering exceptional service experiences. Through innovative design, leading-edge technology, and groundbreaking orchestration, Juniper provides operators with an “easy button” to create a cloud metro of their own to deliver highly compelling experiences to their customers.

The metro is evolving to become the new “edge,” with massive growth potential. It is where 5G, edge cloud hosting, connectivity, and service experience converge. Traditional “retro metro” architectures were not designed to sustain business growth in this quickly evolving environment.

According to ACG Research, metro traffic bandwidth is projected to grow more than 500% from 2021 to 2027, making the current cost per bit economics unsustainable. User expectations continue to increase, and security threats persistently expand. From an operational perspective, 86% of telecom executives named skilled staff shortage as the primary industry challenge, and from an environmental sustainability perspective, new ITU standards require operators to reduce greenhouse emissions by 45% from 2020 to 2030. A new approach is needed to effectively tackle these challenges and enable sustainable business growth—Juniper Cloud Metro is designed with these challenges and opportunities in mind.

Juniper Cloud Metro is about applying cloud principles to architecting, building, and operating metro networks and represents a new solution category because the attributes for its operations, systems, and architecture are fundamentally different from traditional retro metros (Figure 3). Consider a car analogy, electric vehicles and gasoline vehicles are both “vehicles” but can clearly be placed in different categories due to their unique characteristics and attributes. 

 

Retro Metro vs. Cloud Metro table diagram

Figure 3. Juniper Cloud Metro: A New Category of Metro Solution

The Juniper Cloud Metro solution combines an IP service fabric underlay of ACX7000 family routers, Junos OS Evolved, and Paragon Automation to achieve a singular and converged purpose—enabling sustainable business growth:
