Data Sheet ACX500, ACX1000, ACX2000, AND ACX4000 UNIVERSAL METRO ROUTERS DATASHEET Product Description Product Overview ACX500, ACX1000, ACX2000, and ACX4000 Universal Metro Routers add operational intelligence to metro environments, providing the option to deploy packet optical, metro Ethernet, or IP/MPLS infrastructure. High-precision synchronization technology, industry-leading security, and high availability features enhance QoE, while extensive OAM, built-in advanced SLA management, and zero touch deployment capabilities reduce TCO. The ACX500, ACX1000, ACX2000, and ACX4000 platforms address a variety of service provider use cases, including business, cable distributed access architectures, residential fiber, and mobile backhaul, as well as enterprise applications for power utilities, oil and gas, mining, transportation, and defense and public safety industries. Juniper Networks® ACX Series Universal Metro Routers are Juniper’s response to a shift in metro network architecture, where the access and aggregation layers are extending the operational intelligence from the service provider edge to the access network. The ACX Series simplifies access and aggregation architectures by eliminating unnecessary layers and network overlays, dramatically reducing CapEx and OpEx. Based on architectural simplification and cost reduction, the ACX Series enables service providers and enterprises to adopt the true universal metro paradigm. In addition to Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) CE2.0 compliance for supporting both Ethernet and IP/MPLS, the ACX Series provides high capacity, scalability, and a secure packet optical transport layer, while delivering industryleading performance with a wide range of port densities and interface types. Table 1 provides an overview of the interfaces supported on the ACX500, ACX1000, ACX2000, and ACX4000 platforms. Flexibility and upgradability (the ability to mix and match interface types) makes the ACX Series ideal for a wide range of use cases. ACX Series Product Family The ACX Series Universal Metro Routers family includes multiple models, all targeted at different applications. • ACX500: The ACX500 is a small form factor, hardened fanless router that delivers up to 60 Gbps throughput. It is ideal for small cell, LTE-Advanced mobile backhaul deployments, as well as use cases in the industrial environment. An ACX500-O version is available for outdoor deployment. • ACX1000: The ACX1000 is a 1 U fanless router that delivers up to 60 Gbps through a fixed configuration of eight T1/E1 interfaces, eight copper 10/100/1000 GbE ports, and four GbE combination fiber/copper ports. It is designed for enterprise and service provider cabinet and tower deployments. • ACX1100: The compact, 1 U, environmentally hardened ACX1100 is an Ethernet-only access router with a fixed configuration of eight copper GbE 10/100/1000 Mbps interfaces, and four GbE copper/fiber combination ports. It provides 60 Gbps performance, programmability, and a fanless passive cooling system that makes it ideal for external cabinet or tower installations. • ACX2100: The ACX2100 features fanless passive cooling and a fixed port configuration that includes 16 T1/E1 interfaces, four copper 10/100/1000 Mbps interfaces, four combination copper/fiber GbE ports, two GbE small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP) ports, and two 10GbE SFP+ transceiver p
