(including environmentally rated options) providing highly flexible and scalable build-as-you-
grow native port speeds from 1GbE to 400GbE, high-power ZR/ZR+ support, breakout
cable options for more granular port speed deployments, and high-capacity platforms pre-
engineered to support future port speeds. Every ACX7000 platform includes active service
assurance and zero trust security embedded, enabling operators to deliver highly reliable
and differentiated customer experiences.

Individually, ACX7000 platforms bring leading-edge performance, scale, and capability to

any deployment. When building a comprehensive Juniper Cloud Metro architecture
consisting of multiple ACX7000 platforms, new dimensions of end-to-end operational
capability, performance, and simplicity are realized. These cloud metro routers excel in
three key areas: exceptional TCO, investment protection, and cloud metro-ready to deliver
experience-first networking for residential, enterprise, wholesale, and 4G/5G mobile
services.
