Product overview
The Juniper layer 3 Ethernet Switch is supplied under part number QFX5100-48S-DC-AFI. A switch is rarely the whole order: optics, breakout cables, the right power orientation and a rail kit all have to arrive with it. Send the topology and we will quote the complete bill of materials.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against QFX5100-48S-DC-AFI, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Quoted with the optics and rails
The switch, the transceivers at both ends and the mounting hardware go on one bill of materials, so nothing blocks the install.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is QFX5100-48S-DC-AFI genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in Juniper packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will QFX5100-48S-DC-AFI work in my server?
Tell us what it is aggregating and what optics you already hold. We confirm the port mix, the uplink capacity and the airflow variant, and we will list the optics and rail kit you will also need.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
