ACX5096 Quick Start Description

This Quick Start contains information you need to install and configure the router quickly. For complete
installation instructions, see the ACX5000 Universal Metro Routers Hardware Guide at
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/.
Starting in Release 15.1X54-D20, Junos OS supports the ACX5000 Universal Metro Routers (model
numbers: ACX5096-DC and ACX5096-AC). The ACX5000 routers are high-capacity and low-cost
aggregation routers best suited for Metro and Carrier Ethernet Aggregation deployments. The ACX5000
router portfolio consists of high-performance fixed-configuration routers that add higher port densities,
additional scalability, and improved latency to the ACX. The ACX5000 routers are available in AC and DC
power variants.
The key features of the ACX5096 router models are as follows:
Ninety-six 10-Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports that can be configured to as 1-Gigabit Ethernet ports that
support 1GbE small form-factor pluggable transceivers (SFP)
Eight 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports with quad form-factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) transceivers
Aggregate throughput of up to 2.56 Tbps
Maximum power requirement of up to 550 W (with optical SFPs)
The ACX5096 is a top-of-rack, 10-Gigabit Ethernet router with 96 SFP+ ports and 8 QSFP+ ports. Each
SFP+ port can operate as a native 10-Gbps port or as a 1-Gbps port. QSFP ports 96 and 100 can operate
at native 40-Gbps speed or can be channelized to four independent ports with 10-Gbps speed. The eight
QSFP+ ports can be used as either access ports or uplink ports. The ACX5096 router has a 2 U form factor
and is shipped with redundant fans and redundant power supplies. The router can be ordered with AC or
DC power supplies. Figure 1 on page 2
