ACX710 System Overview
ACX710 Universal Metro Router Description
The Juniper Networks ACX710 Universal Metro Routers are high-performance routers designed to deliver solutions that address the evolution needs of the mobile backhaul.
The ACX710 router provides an aggregation solution that is cost-effective and compact, and that supports emerging deployments such as segment routing and Ethernet VPN (EVPN). The ACX710 includes support for numerous features such as modern network management using NETCONF and YANG, and precise synchronization that helps address the increasing demands of high-speed networks.
Benefits of ACX710 Routers
Optimized space—The ACX710 router has a small footprint and is optimized for space-constrained deployments.
High performance—The ACX710 router offers high-density 1GbE, 10GbE, and 100GbE ports with full-duplex throughput of 320 Gbps and 24-Gbit DRAM packet buffer. The ACX710 is designed to deliver solutions that support emerging deployments.
Zero-touch provisioning—The ACX710 router supports zero-touch provisioning (ZTP), which enables you to automate provisioning and deployment with minimal manual intervention. This helps save time and accelerate deployments.
ACX710 System Overview
The ACX710 router is a 1-U compact and fixed-configuration model with high-density 1GbE, 10GbE, and 100GbE ports. ACX710 routers provide full-duplex throughput of 320 Gbps and 24-Gbit DRAM packet buffer.
We ship these routers with a DC power supply module that has dual power feeds and a fan tray with five high-performance fans that can effectively cool the chassis.

ACX710 System Software Overview
ACX710 routers use the Junos operating system (OS), which provides Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, routing, and security services. The same Junos OS code base that runs on an ACX710 router also runs on all Juniper Networks QFX Series and EX Series switches, and on J Series, MX Series, ACX Series, PTX Series, and T Series routers.
