The Juniper ACX7100-48L is a high-capacity fixed router for cloud metro aggregation and edge handoff points. It consolidates dense 10/25GbE services into a larger fabric with Junos OS Evolved and automation support, helping simplify routing in demanding metro environments.
As access layers expand and service demands become more distributed, infrastructure teams need routing platforms that can absorb dense connectivity without complicating handover to higher-capacity cores.
The Juniper ACX7100-48L is a cloud metro router for production edge, metro, and handoff environments where many 10/25GbE services must be consolidated efficiently. Its 48×10/25/50GbE port mix gives operators a practical aggregation point for access-heavy sites and routed edge deployments.
With 6×400GbE uplinks and 4.8 Tbps of forwarding capacity, the platform is built to move traffic into larger fabrics without creating a bottleneck at the edge. Junos OS Evolved provides the operational foundation, while Segment Routing, SRv6, MPLS, and EVPN-VXLAN support current transport and service-separation requirements.
That combination helps infrastructure teams consolidate many lower-speed links, preserve service separation, and keep metro or WAN sites aligned to a common routing model. The result is a cleaner edge layer that is easier to expand, monitor, and integrate into broader network operations.
Speak to our team about the Juniper ACX7100-48L and how it can fit your routed edge, metro, or aggregation design.
Juniper ACX7100-48L is a metro aggregation platform for dense service-provider and enterprise edge deployments, combining high-capacity forwarding with a design suited to scalable transport and service convergence.
Dense Aggregation Profile
The platform is built for dense 10G-400G metro aggregation, aligning high-throughput edge traffic into a single forwarding system.
Flexible Service Access
Its port mix supports 48×10/25/50GbE and 6x400GbE, giving operators a broad access-to-uplink transition within one platform.
Converged Network Services
It supports Segment Routing, SRv6, MPLS, and EVPN-VXLAN to carry routed, segmented, and overlay-enabled traffic on the same infrastructure.
Telemetry-Ready Design
Built-in telemetry support gives operators the operational visibility needed to monitor metro aggregation behavior and service performance.
Service-Provider Control Plane
The platform architecture is suited to controlled service delivery in metro environments where routing, segmentation, and transport policies must coexist.
Operational Insight
Telemetry support helps teams observe network state and traffic behavior for faster troubleshooting and capacity planning.
Metro Edge Adaptability
The forwarding design supports evolving service mixes without changing the platform role at the aggregation layer.
If you are consolidating dense metro traffic or planning a segmented edge architecture, our team can help position the ACX7100-48L for your forwarding and service goals.

The Juniper ACX7100-48L is a 48-port 10/25GbE cloud metro router for access-heavy routed aggregation. It is aimed at teams that need to consolidate many lower-speed links at the metro edge, then hand traffic into higher-capacity cores or fabric layers.
At access-heavy metro sites, operators often need to collect broadband, mobile and business services from many lower-speed links. The ACX7100-48L fits that role when port density and routed aggregation matter more than 100GbE concentration.
Where facilities connect racks, tenants and inter-site paths, edge teams need reliable routing across numerous 10/25GbE services. This model suits DCI handoff points that must consolidate connections before feeding a larger fabric.
Energy and utility networks need secure, deterministic transport between substations, control rooms and operations centres. The ACX7100-48L supports that distributed routing layer when many fibre circuits must be managed without pushing 100GbE to every endpoint.
Financial infrastructure often carries branch traffic, market data and service-separated WAN links through a compact routed edge. This router matches environments that need resilient aggregation without the scale of a larger metro platform.
Logistics teams managing depots, warehouses and transport hubs need a practical way to bring together operational WAN links and edge services. The ACX7100-48L helps centralise those distributed connections into a manageable metro layer.
Our team can help design and deploy Juniper ACX7100-48L routing for telecom, data-centre, utility, finance and logistics environments, with a focus on service separation, scaling and operational fit.
