Product Identity

The HPE Juniper Networking EX4200-48T is a new rackmount Layer 3 switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and an expansion slot for uplink modules. It runs a full suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities in the base software and supports Virtual Chassis technology to interconnect up to 10 units over a 128 Gbps backplane.

Ideal Deployment

This switch suits campus, branch and data centre access layers that need pay-as-you-grow scalability and unified management of multiple switches. It is not for environments that require built-in 10 Gigabit uplinks or Power over Ethernet without adding separate modules.

Deciding Specification

The 48-port 10/100/1000Base-T density combined with a single expansion slot for flexible uplink modules determines whether this model matches the port count and uplink strategy your design requires.

Questions about this item

How do I install the EX4200-48T in a rack and what step is often missed?

Mount the supplied brackets to the 48-port chassis, slide the unit into the rack, then insert the uplink module into the single expansion slot; the module must be seated before power is applied.

What maintenance or replacement will the EX4200-48T need over time?

Plan to replace the internal fan tray and power supply units when airflow drops or alerts appear, and reapply firmware updates after each Juniper software release.

What limit appears first when the EX4200-48T runs at sustained load?

The 128 Gbps Virtual Chassis backplane caps total inter-switch throughput when up to 10 units are stacked, so aggregated traffic above that rate will queue.
