NFX350 Network Services Platform Overview

The Juniper Networks NFX350 Network Services Platform is a secure, automated, software-driven universal customer
premises equipment (uCPE) platform that delivers virtualized network and security services on demand. Leveraging Network
Functions Virtualization (NFV) and built on the Juniper Cloud CPE solution, NFX350 enables service providers to deploy
and chain multiple, secure, high-performance virtualized network functions (VNFs) on a single device.
The NFX350 is suited for large and extra-large deployments. The NFX350 is a high-end resilient uCPE platform that can
be used in secure SD-WAN and secure router deployments.
