EX2300-48P Overview

The Juniper Networks® EX2300 line of Ethernet switches offers a compact, high-performance solution for supporting today’s converged network access deployments.

Each EX2300 switch includes an ASIC-based Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) with an integrated CPU to consistently deliver wire-rate forwarding, even with all control plane features enabled. Based on existing, field-proven Juniper Networks technology, the PFE brings the same level of carrier-class performance and reliability to the EX2300 switches that Juniper Networks routers bring to the world’s largest service provider networks.

Select EX2300 models also support the 802.3af Class 3 Power over Ethernet (PoE) and 802.3at PoE+ standards for supporting networked devices such as telephones, video cameras, IEEE 802.11ac WLAN access points, and videophones in converged networks. The PoE-enabled EX2300 switches include a maximum system budget of 750 watts to deliver up to 30 watts to select ports.

Multiple EX2300 models are available, including versions offering multigigabit (up to 2.5 Gbps) PoE+ access ports that can accommodate higher-speed IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2 access points, enabling the switches to support more wireless users.

48-port 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+, 4 x 1/10GbE, 100W AC Power Consumption, 750W Total PoE Power Budget

  • Virtual Chassis technology enables up to four interconnected EX2300 switches to form a single logical device

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary networking interfaces available on the Juniper EX2300-48P? +
The EX2300-48P features 48 fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T front-panel ports for high-density copper connectivity. Additionally, it includes four fixed 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+ uplink ports, providing the necessary flexibility to integrate this switch into high-speed backbone environments or link it directly to core network infrastructure.
Does the EX2300-48P support Power over Ethernet for edge devices? +
Yes, this model is specifically engineered as a PoE+ switch, providing IEEE 802.3at support across its 48 copper ports. It is designed to reliably power high-draw edge devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras without requiring external power injectors, simplifying your rack cable management.
Can I use 10G transceivers with the uplink ports on the EX2300-48P? +
The four uplink ports are compatible with both 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ transceivers. Please note that these optics are sold separately, allowing you to select the specific fiber reach or copper SFP+ cabling that aligns with your existing network architecture and distance requirements.
Is the Juniper EX2300-48P suitable for a virtual chassis deployment? +
Absolutely. The EX2300 series supports Virtual Chassis technology, which allows you to interconnect multiple switches to operate as a single, logical device. This simplifies management, reduces administrative overhead, and provides enhanced resiliency across your access layer by allowing you to manage multiple units through a single IP address.
What is the typical use case for the EX2300-48P in an enterprise environment? +
This switch is an ideal entry-level access layer solution for enterprise branch offices, campus deployments, and small-to-medium business networks. Its balance of gigabit PoE+ ports and high-speed 10G uplinks makes it perfect for environments where high-performance connectivity is required for desktops, IP telephony, and high-density Wi-Fi deployments.
How do I manage the Juniper EX2300-48P switch configurations? +
Management is handled through the robust Junos OS, which offers a command-line interface (CLI) for granular control, as well as support for Juniper's J-Web interface for web-based configuration. It also integrates seamlessly with standard SNMP-based management platforms, ensuring compatibility with your existing network monitoring and orchestration tools.
Does the EX2300-48P include advanced Layer 3 routing capabilities? +
The EX2300-48P provides a foundation for Layer 2 switching and basic static routing. While it is primarily marketed as an access switch, it handles inter-VLAN routing effectively for standard branch office needs. For complex routing protocols or large-scale Layer 3 requirements, you may consider integrating it with a dedicated core or distribution-layer router.
What should I consider regarding the power budget for the PoE+ ports? +
When deploying the EX2300-48P, ensure your total power draw from all connected PDs (Powered Devices) does not exceed the switch's internal power budget. It is best practice to calculate the maximum power consumption of each device—including wireless access points and security cameras—to confirm the switch can sustain your required load during peak operating conditions.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple EX2300-48P units? +
