Wired Access
In the world of wired switches, “enterprise-grade” rarely goes hand in hand with “ease of use.” Until now. Demand more from your switching portfolio. Juniper access switches, born in the cloud era and driven by Mist AI™, deliver the performance and scale you expect from Juniper with zero-touch provisioning, campus fabric support, proactive troubleshooting, and self-driving automation for ongoing operational simplicity.
When combined with Juniper’s AI-driven wireless access and SD-WAN solutions, you get end-to-end automation, insights, and actions for the best operator and end-user experiences, from client to cloud.
A Magic Quadrant Leader
Gartner names Juniper furthest in Vision and Highest in Execution in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired & Wireless LAN Infrastructure.
How Juniper can help
Juniper is a recognized leader in wired access with a wide array of leading-edge hardware platforms operated via the cloud and Mist AI. With our EX Series Switches, it’s easy to set up and manage network fabrics, apply robust policies, cost-effectively scale, and troubleshoot needle-in-a-haystack problems, such as misconfigured VLANs and bad cables.
AI for the best experiences
Provision, deploy, and operate Juniper EX Series Switches from the Juniper Mist cloud. Wired Assurance and Marvis Virtual Network Assistant apply the power of Mist AI to rich streaming telemetry from EX switches, enabling simple operations, rapid mean time to repair (MTTR), and visibility into the experience of each device.
Cloud-ready, enterprise-grade
Juniper access switches deliver enterprise-grade performance to meet all your business and technical requirements. They offer a robust set of features, including multigigabit rates (1/2.5/5/10GbE), Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 90W, standards-based microsegmentation with Group-Based Policies, MACsec, and Day 0-to-Day 2+ cloud-readiness, to name a few.
Simplified campus fabrics
Alleviate the operational burdens of deploying campus fabrics. Juniper’s AI-driven campus fabric workflow enables administrators to deploy EVPN-VXLAN in three steps: select topology, choose devices, and push configurations. Gone are the days of manually entering CLI commands. Powered by the modern cloud, campus deployments become quick, consistent, and scalable.
Unified wired and wireless
Power the network edge with wired and wireless access solutions unified under a common cloud and AI umbrella. With event correlation across domains, end-to-end service levels, and integrated insight using the Marvis Virtual Network Assistant, it has never been easier or more cost-effective to manage a combined wired/wireless infrastructure.
Network-aware security
Risk profiling driven by Mist AI brings Juniper Connected Security to the distributed access network edge. Enterprises gain deep network visibility and policy enforcement at every point of connection. Juniper Mist Access Assurance delivers zero-trust, identity-based network access control and full-stack policy and segmentation assignments with end-to-end user experience visibility.
The Products
The EX Series Ethernet Switches are cloud-ready, high-performance access and aggregation/core layer switches designed for enterprise branch, campus, and data center networks. Wired access networks don’t have to be complex—you can reduce risk and cost without compromising performance, quality, and innovation.
Wired Assurance
The Juniper Mist Wired Assurance service brings Mist AI to access-layer switching. It sets a new network management standard with AI-driven operations and automation, improving the experiences of devices connected to resources through Juniper EX Series Switches.

CUSTOMER SUCCESS
Greenergy brings sustainable data center services to the Baltics
Greenergy Data Centers (GDC) offers organizations a new choice for sustainable digital transformation. GDC has built the largest and most-energy efficient data center in the Baltics, with a target power usage effectiveness (PUE) lower than the goal set by the European Green Deal.
“We are opening a new sector for Estonia,” says Aivar Karu, CIO of GDC. “We are using renewable energy, our engineering skills, and climatic conditions to build the most energy-efficient, reliable, and secure data center in the Baltics.”
GDC relies on Juniper networking to support its business and data center operations.
