Description

The Juniper ACX2100 Universal Metro Router is a compact 1RU fanless router purpose-built for mobile backhaul, metro access, and carrier aggregation deployments. Temperature-hardened and passively cooled, it delivers full IP/MPLS services with SyncE and IEEE 1588 PTP timing synchronisation — essential for 4G/5G cell site and MSO backhaul networks. With 16x T1/E1, 4x GbE RJ45, 4x GbE combo SFP/RJ45, 2x GbE SFP, and 2x 10GbE SFP+ ports, it provides flexible interface density in a rugged, silent chassis.

Running Juniper Junos OS, the ACX2100 supports NEBS Level 3 compliance, MEF CE2.0 Ethernet services, and full L2/L3 IP/MPLS functionality. Zero-Touch Deployment (ZTD) accelerates provisioning, while NETCONF, YANG, SNMP v2/v3, and on-box Python/SLAX scripting enable deep automation and integration into service provider environments. The redundant AC power supply ensures high availability for mission-critical edge deployments.

FAQs

Q: What is the Juniper ACX2100 designed for?
A: The ACX2100 is a Universal Metro Router designed for mobile backhaul (4G/5G cell site aggregation), metro access, and carrier aggregation deployments. Its temperature-hardened, fanless design makes it ideal for outdoor cabinet, roadside, and harsh environment installations where silent, reliable operation is critical.

Q: Does the ACX2100 support timing synchronisation for mobile networks?
A: Yes. The ACX2100 supports both SyncE (Synchronous Ethernet) for frequency synchronisation and IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for phase and time-of-day synchronisation — both essential for LTE and 5G radio access network backhaul.

Q: What interfaces does the ACX2100 provide?
A: The ACX2100 includes 16x T1/E1 ports, 4x GbE RJ45 copper ports, 4x GbE combo SFP/RJ45 ports, 2x GbE SFP ports, and 2x 10GbE SFP+ uplink ports — providing flexible multi-service interface density in a single 1RU chassis.

Q: Is the ACX2100 compliant with telco and carrier standards?
A: Yes. The ACX2100 is NEBS Level 3 certified (GR-63-CORE, GR-1089-CORE) and MEF CE2.0 compliant, meeting the rigorous environmental, safety, and service standards required for carrier and service provider network deployments.

Q: Can I automate provisioning and management on the ACX2100?
A: Yes. The ACX2100 runs Juniper Junos OS and supports Zero-Touch Deployment (ZTD), NETCONF, YANG, SNMP v2/v3, and on-box scripting via SLAX and Python — enabling full automation and integration with modern network orchestration platforms.
