Juniper Networks EX9214 Ethernet Switches provide high performance, scalable connectivity, and carrier-class reliability for high-density environments such as campus-aggregation and data-center networks. The EX9214 switch has a throughput of up to 13.2 terabits per second (Tbps) or up to 240 gigabits per second (Gbps) per slot full duplex. The EX9214 switch is a modular system that provides high availability and redundancy for all major hardware components, including Routing Engine module (RE module), Switch Fabric module (SF module), fan trays, and power supplies.
You can manage EX9214 switches by using the same interfaces that you use for managing other devices running the Juniper Networks Junos operating system (Junos OS)-the CLI, the Network and Security Manager (NSM), and Junos Space.

Benefits of the EX9214 Switch
Simplified network architecture-EX9214 switches deliver a simple, secure, virtualized network environment that increases business agility. They are ideal for simplifying campus, data center, and combined campus and data center network environments by collapsing network layers. In a multichassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) configuration in the campus, you can use EX9214 switches to eliminate Spanning Tree Protocol (STP); they collapse the core and aggregation layers, thereby simplifying the network architecture and network operations. In a data center, you can use EX9204 switches to collapse core and aggregation layers. In combined campus and data center environments, EX9214 switches consolidate network layers to simplify the network architecture and operations.
MACsec support-EX9200-40F-M and EX9200-40XS line cards and EX9200-20F-MIC for EX9200-MPC line card supports IEEE 802.1AE MACsec with AES-256 bit encryption, ensuring link-layer data confidentiality, data integrity, and data origin authentication.
Software
The Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches run Junos OS, which provides Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, routing, and security services.
