EX4400 System Overview
EX4400 Switches Hardware Overview
The Juniper Networks® EX4400 Switch is Juniper's first cloud-ready switch. The EX4400 switch provides connectivity for high-density environments and scalability for growing networks. You typically use EX4400 switches in large branch offices, campus wiring closets, and data centers. In data centers, you can position EX4400 switches as top-of-rack switches to provide connectivity for all devices in the rack.
We ship the EX4400 switches:
-
With RJ-45 ports that support IEEE 802.3bt Power over Ethernet (PoE-bt), fast Power over Ethernet (PoE), and Perpetual PoE in EX4400-24P, EX4400-24MP, EX4400-48P, and EX4400-48MP switches
-
With one hot-swappable AC or DC power supply. You can order an additional power supply and power cord separately to provide 1+1 redundancy.
-
With dual hot-swappable fan trays that provide front-to-back or back-to-front airflow and maintain high system availability.
-
With a slot to install an optional extension module.
You can manage EX4400 switches by using the CLI or J-Web. You can also use Juniper Mist™ to manage EX4400 switches that you deploy in a cloud network.

Benefits of the EX4400 Switch
Cloud readiness—EX4400 switches are our first cloud-ready switches. You can deploy the switches and manage them by using Juniper Mist.
Support for Virtual Chassis—EX4400 switches support Virtual Chassis technology. You can interconnect up to 10 EX4400 switches to form a Virtual Chassis.
Support for channelization—You can channelize the QSFP28 ports on the EX4400 switch and increase the number of interfaces.
Support for MACsec and EVPN-VXLAN architecture—EX4400 switches support IEEE 802.1AE Media Access Control Security (MACsec) and EVPN-VXLAN. Support for MACsec and EVPN-VXLAN ensures link-layer data confidentiality, data integrity, and data origin authentication to help secure deployments in enterprise multicloud deployments. The RJ-45, SFP, and SFP+ network ports and the ports in the 4x25GbE SFP28 extension module support MACsec with AES-128, AES-256, AES-XPN-128, and AES-XPN-256 encryption.
Support for IEEE 802.3bt Power over Ethernet (PoE-bt)—The RJ-45 ports in EX4400-24P, EX4400-24MP, EX4400-48P, and EX4400-48MP switches support IEEE 802.3bt (PoE-bt), providing power of up to 90 W per port.
Support for fast PoE—The RJ-45 ports in EX4400-24P, EX4400-24MP, EX4400-48P, and EX4400-48MP switches support fast PoE. Fast PoE delivers PoE power to connected devices even before the switch is fully operational. You'll find this feature beneficial when your connected devices need only power, not network connectivity.
Support for Perpetual PoE—The RJ-45 ports in EX4400-24P, EX4400-24MP, EX4400-48P, and EX4400-48MP switches support perpetual PoE. This feature provides uninterrupted power to connected devices even when the switch is rebooting.
Compact solution—The EX4400 switch is a modular single rack unit (1-U) device that is an apt solution for crowded wiring closets and access switch locations. The switch provides carrier-class reliability of modular systems with the economics and flexibility of stackable platforms.
High availability—EX4400 switches provide high availability through redundant power supplies and fans, graceful Routing Engine switchover (GRES), and nonstop bridging (NSB) and nonstop active routing (NSR) when deployed in a Virtual Chassis configuration.

Extension Modules
EX4400 switches provide one slot for installing an optional extension module. You can use the ports on the extension module to connect the switch to other devices. By installing an extension module, you add more ports to your switch, thereby increasing the port density of the switch. For more information about extension modules, see Extension Modules in EX4400 Switches.
Virtual Chassis
You can use the quad small form-factor pluggable 28 (QSFP28) ports to interconnect a maximum of 10 EX4400 switches to form a Virtual Chassis. On EX4400 switch models except EX4400-24X, the QSFP28 ports are on the rear panel. On the EX4400-24X model, the QSFP28 ports are on the front panel.
On EX4400 switch models except EX4400-24X, the QSFP28 ports are configured as
Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs) by default. Each of the two QSFP28 ports operates
as two logical 50-Gbps VCP interfaces. On the EX4400-24X model, you can
configure the QSFP28 ports as VCPs by using the request virtual-chassis mode network-port
CLI
command.
You can operate the interconnected switches as a single, logical device with a single IP address. For more information about Virtual Chassis, see Understanding EX Series Virtual Chassis.
You can configure the QSFP28 ports as network ports and operate them as 100GbE
network ports or uplink ports by using QSFP28 transceivers and by using the CLI
command
request virtual-chassis mode
.
Channelization in EX4400 Switches
When the two QSFP28 ports on EX4400 switches are configured to operate as network ports, the ports support channelization.
-
You can install 100-Gbps transceivers and channelize each QSFP28 port into four 25-Gbps interfaces by connecting breakout cables and by using CLI configuration.
-
You can install 40-Gbps transceivers and channelize each port into four 10-Gbps interfaces by connecting breakout cables and by using CLI configuration.
See Port Settings.
EX4400 Cooling System
The cooling system in EX4400 switches consists of two fan modules for the chassis and a single built-in fan in each power supply. The airflow direction depends on the fan modules and power supplies installed in the switch. You can order fan modules and power supplies that support front-to-back airflow (air enters through the front panel of the switch) or back-to-front airflow (air enters through the rear panel of the switch). The fan modules are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs) installed in the rear panel of the switch. That is, you can remove and replace the fan modules without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions.
EX4400 Power System
We ship EX4400 switches with one power supply preinstalled in the rear panel of the chassis.
EX4400-24T, EX4400-24X, EX4400-48T, and EX4400-48F switches support two 550-W AC or DC power supplies with front-to-back or back-to-front airflow directions.
EX4400-24P and EX4400-24MP switches support two 1050-W or 1600-W AC power supplies with front-to-back airflow. The models support 1600-W AC power supply if you have Junos OS Release 22.3R1 or later installed. We ship the models with one 1050-W power supply. You can order the additional power supply separately. You must not install different models of power supplies in the same chassis.
EX4400-48P and EX4400-48MP switches support two 1600-W AC power supplies with front-to-back airflow.
The power supplies are fully redundant, load-sharing, and hot-removable and hot-insertable FRUs when the second power supply is installed and running. You can remove and replace either one of the power supplies without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions. An internal cooling system cools each power supply.
Do not mix:
-
AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis.
-
Power supplies with different airflow directions in the same chassis.
-
Fan modules with different airflow directions in the same chassis.
-
Power supplies and fan modules with different airflow directions in the same chassis.
If you install power supplies or fan modules with different airflow directions, Junos OS raises an alarm.

Flush with the front posts of a 19-in. four-post rack by using a separately orderable four-post rack mount kit.
In a recessed position inside a 19-in. four-post rack by using the recessed-mounting brackets provided with a separately orderable four-post rack mount kit.
On a desk or other level surface by using the rubber feet provided with the switch.
On a wall by using a separately orderable wall mount kit.
To know the part numbers for ordering the separately orderable mounting kits, see the EX4400 Switches Datasheet.
Field-Replaceable Units in EX4400 Switches
Field-replaceable units (FRUs) are components that you can replace at your site. The FRUs in EX4400 switches are hot-removable and hot-insertable: You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions. The following are the FRUs in EX4400 switches:
Power supplies
Fan modules
Extension modules
Transceivers
If you have a Juniper J-Care service contract, register any addition, change, or upgrade of hardware components at https://www.juniper.net/customers/support/tools/updateinstallbase/. Failure to do so can result in significant delays if you need replacement parts. This note does not apply if you replace existing components with the same type of component.
Extension Modules in EX4400 Switches
EX4400 switches provide a slot to install an optional extension module. Extension modules are hot-insertable and hot-removable field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch or disrupting switch functions.
You can install an extension module horizontally in the extension module slot on the front panel of the switch. You can use the ports on the extension module to connect the switch to other devices. By installing an extension module, you add more ports to your switch, thereby increasing the port density of the switch.
Table 5 shows the extension modules supported on EX4400 switches, their descriptions, and the first Junos OS release the extension modules support.

Extension modules and transceivers are not part of the shipping configuration. You must order them separately.
When you install an extension module in the switch or replace an extension module
with another extension module, the switch detects the extension module. The output
of the show chassis pic fpc-slot slot number pic-slot
slot number
command displays the operating speed
of the extension modules. You must configure the extension module to operate at the
speed of the transceiver that you plan to install in the extension module. The
switch detects the transceiver that you install in the extension module port and
displays the transceiver details in the output of the show chassis
hardware
command.
The 1x100GbE QSFP28 extension module operates in 100-gigabit mode by default. It
operates in 40-gigabit mode if you insert a 40GbE QSFP+ transceiver. When the
extension module is operating in 100-gigabit mode, you can channelize the port and
configure it to operate in 25-gigabit mode by using the set chassis fpc 0
pic-slot 2 port 0 channel-speed 25g
command and a 4x25GbE breakout
cable. When the extension module is operating in 40-gigabit mode, you can channelize
the port and configure it to operate in 10-gigabit mode by using the set
chassis fpc 0 pic-slot 2 port 0 channel-speed 10g
command and a 4x10GbE
breakout cable.
The 4x25GbE SFP+ extension module operates in 25-gigabit mode by default. You can
configure all the ports in the extension module to operate in 10-gigabit mode by
using the set chassis fpc 0 pic-slot 2 port 0 speed 10g
command.
You can revert to the 25-gigabit mode by using the set chassis fpc 0
pic-slot 2 port 0 speed 25g
command or the delete chassis fpc 0
pic-slot 2 port 0 speed 10g
command. All the ports in the extension
module can operate in the same mode only.
The 4x10GbE SFP+ extension module operates in 10-gigabit mode by default. You can
configure all the ports in the extension module to operate in 1-gigabit mode by
using the set chassis fpc 0 pic-slot 2 port 0 speed 1g
command. You
can revert to the 10-gigabit mode by using the set chassis fpc 0 pic-slot 2
port 0 speed 10g
command or the delete chassis fpc 0 pic-slot 2
port 0 speed 1g
command. All the ports in the extension module can
operate in the same mode only.
Each port on the extension modules has a pair of LEDs that indicate the link activity and status of the port. See LEDs on the RJ-45, SFP, and SFP+ Network Ports, QSFP28 Ports, and Extension Module Ports on EX4400 Switches for details about the LEDs.
