Local area networks LAN

An essential part of a LAN is its hardware. Switches form the hardware backbone of local area networks. From our wide range of switches, you will find a solution for both large and small environments.

Modern AI-based network solutions provide excellent visibility into network operations and make it easier to manage your network.

Switches

Juniper Networks switches are designed for companies and organizations for which data networks are a critical business tool. The switches’ versatile features meet today’s and tomorrow’s needs as business evolves.

The key competitive advantages of Juniper switches:

  • One software version for all switch models for easy maintenance
  • One single platform for all switches. One single solution for all switches. AI-based cloud management provides the best visibility and easiest manageability on the market. The most advanced network visibility and the most intuitive user interface with the highest level of visibility.
  • Virtual Chassis technology that allows the switch stack to be managed as a single logical entity
  • Reliability through hot-swap modules and multiple software functionalities
  • Versatile routing and Quality of Service features
  • Very comprehensive security features as standard
Fiber to the Office, FTTO

Microsens micro switches can be used to build local area network based on optical fiber, FTTO. The idea of the concept is to replace copper cabling with fiber optical cables. The fiber is brought from the frame switches to the Microsens micro switches close to the user, after which the terminals can be connected to the GbE ports of the micro switches, using standard RJ45 device cables.

The range includes PoE+/PoE++ models as well as models for horizontal and vertical installations. The micro switches can be installed in 45×45 electrical enclosures.

Benefits of the concept:

  • Utilising fiber and micro switches saves a huge amount of cabling in buildings. In a 10-year life cycle analysis, the cost saving is around 30% compared to a conventional network.
  • A fiber network is an investment for the future, with capacity to last well into the future as other technologies are upgraded
  • Supports different network topologies and redundant network solutions
  • Particularly suitable when upgrading or building a completely new office or factory network
