Compact 48-port access switch

The Juniper EX2300-48T delivers 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a 1U wall-mountable chassis. It targets small network environments such as micro branches, retail sites and workgroups where space and power are at a premium. Layer 3 switching and Layer 4 awareness handle routing and traffic classification at the access layer.

Virtual Chassis uplink flexibility

Four 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP uplink slots connect the switch to aggregation or core devices. Up to four EX2300 units can be joined through Virtual Chassis technology and managed as a single logical device, reducing the number of separate management points. The design frees rack space while preserving uplink capacity for growth.

Sustained converged access load

The platform is built for continuous operation in converged networks carrying data, voice and video simultaneously. Layer 3 protocols such as HCRP and SPP maintain path resilience during extended traffic periods. Fan and thermal engineering in the compact form factor supports steady-state forwarding without performance throttling.

Questions about this item

How many 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks does the EX2300-48TProduct provide?

The switch includes four 10 Gigabit Ethernet expansion slots for uplink connections.

Does the EX2300-48TProduct generate noticeable fan noise when mounted in a quiet office?

The 1U form factor uses internal cooling designed for space-constrained environments such as micro branches and retail sites.

Which SFP transceivers must I already own to use the uplink ports?

The uplink interface accepts standard SFP modules; choose transceivers that match your fibre or copper link requirements.
