About Juniper PTX Series Routers
PTX Series Routers form the foundation of the world’s largest core and peering architectures. Powered by the latest generation of Juniper’s custom Express family ASICs, they’re cloud-optimized to enable smooth 400G migrations. They simultaneously deliver the scale, flexibility, and investment protection needed to meet today’s market needs. The routers offer native 400G inline MACsec, flexible filtering, and a reliable network operating system that has been powering generations of high-performance solutions. Discover what 100G and 400G mass scale in the cloud can offer with PTX routing. The modular PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016 Packet Transport Routers directly address the massive bandwidth demands being placed on networks. They bring ultra-high port density, native 400GbE in-line MACsec, and latest-generation ASIC investment to the most demanding WAN and data center architectures.

Juniper Cloud-Native Router
The Cloud-Native Router takes full advantage of container economics and operational efficiencies, giving service providers the flexibility they need to deploy 5G. The performant, software-based router combines Juniper’s proven routing technology, the Junos OS containerized routing protocol daemon (cRPD), and Contrail vRouter DPDK forwarding plane for x86 processors. It integrates seamlessly with the Kubernetes Container Network Interface (CNI) framework. The router complements Juniper’s physical routers with advanced networking features for cloud-native environments where space, power, and cooling are limited. Based on the same Junos OS routing technology, hybrid physical and virtual networks provide a single experience end to end. The Cloud-Native Router is a key component in the 5G Distributed Radio Access Network (D-RAN) and in 5G Core data centers hosted in hyper scaler cloud environments.
