Juniper Network said its Junos Trio chipset is the first member of the Junos One family of processors that represents integration of silicon and software, establishing new boundaries for networking. EANTC tested the Junos Trio-based products and verified the MX Series 3D routers density, throughput performance and service scale.
"We are committed to objectively testing networking solutions with the strictest methodology and were honored to be the first lab commissioned to evaluate these solutions," said Carsten Rossenhoevel, managing director at EANTC. "Our analysis confirmed Juniper's Junos Trio chipset is setting new standards for performance, services and scalability, while providing a significant improvement in power efficiency."
The completed tests from EANTC confirm the performance metrics of the MX480 3D Universal Edge Router, including a validated up to 1.4Tbit/s, 240Gbits/s per slot unidirectional, with throughput able to exceed one billion packets per second, in a compact sixth of a rack configuration. Additionally, services scale displayed 6,000 active Layer 3 VPNs and 6,000 active VPLS instances, as well as a 25.34 watts per 10GbE and 3.38 watts per gigabit of throughput in full configuration.
The chipset will be delivered in Juniper's new MX Series 3D routers, providing "Universal Edge" routing for business, residential and mobile services at massive scale on a single network.
Juniper's MX Series 3D products are available starting December 2009. The MX Series 3D 16-port 10GbE aggregation line card will be generally available to customers in December 2009, with additional MX Series 3D products coming throughout 2010.
The European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC) offers vendor-neutral consultancy and test facilities for network equipment manufacturers, service providers and enterprise customers. Primary business areas include interoperability, conformance, and performance testing for Carrier Ethernet, IP/MPLS, and Triple Play technologies and applications.
