EX4550-32T 32-port Layer 3 Switch

This Juniper EX4550 series switch delivers 32 RJ-45 ports running at 10GBase-T speeds in a rackmount form factor. It provides Layer 3 routing capabilities for networks that need wire-speed 10 Gigabit connectivity over copper cabling. Two expansion slots allow additional uplink or stacking modules to be added as requirements grow. The unit is supplied new and ready for deployment in enterprise wiring closets or data-centre rows.

Suited for copper 10G uplinks and routing

Network teams that want 10 Gb/s over existing Cat6a or Cat7 copper without transceivers will find the density and Layer 3 feature set a direct fit. It also serves collapsed-core designs where routing and switching share one appliance. Buyers who need fibre SFP+ ports, PoE power delivery, or higher port counts should evaluate other platforms because this model offers only fixed RJ-45 10GBase-T interfaces and no PoE budget.

10GBase-T copper port speed decides fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 10GBase-T electrical interface on all 32 front-panel ports. If the cabling plant and peer devices support 10 Gb/s over twisted pair, the switch integrates without media converters or optics. If the link budget requires optical fibre, longer reach, or a different media type, this fixed-copper chassis cannot meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Will the 32 10GBase-T RJ45 ports connect to my existing 1 GbE servers without extra modules?

The 32 RJ45 ports run 10GBase-T; any speed below that depends on the linked device and cable grade, which are not detailed here.

Which front-panel LEDs confirm the EX4550-32T is passing Layer 3 traffic after power-on?

Standard port and system LEDs show link, activity and alarm status; the exact LED map is in the hardware guide.

Does the box include both AC power supplies or must I order the second one separately?

The switch ships with a single DC power supply and two expansion slots; additional power supplies are sold separately.
