Best Fit Applications

Enterprise Campus Access Layer

Juniper positions the EX2300 as an economical, entry-level standalone switch for enterprise campus access-layer deployments. Its 24 PoE+ ports and 370W PoE budget support wireless access points, IP phones, security cameras, and other powered network devices.

Branch and Remote Office Access

The fixed 1U chassis, integrated power supply, fixed fans, front-to-back airflow, and four 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+ uplinks support compact access-layer deployments in branch and remote-office racks.

Wiring Closet Uplink and Switch Interconnection

The four 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+ uplinks support upstream connections, link aggregation, and Virtual Chassis interconnection when the required license and SFP+ connection conditions are met.

Why EX2300-24P

PoE+ on Every Access Port

All 24 RJ-45 access ports support IEEE 802.3at PoE+, with up to 30W per port and a 370W maximum PoE budget.

Flexible 1GbE and 10GbE Uplinks

Four built-in SFP/SFP+ uplinks support 1GbE and 10GbE connectivity for different upstream network requirements.

Virtual Chassis Upgrade Path

The uplink ports can be configured as Virtual Chassis ports to interconnect up to four EX2300 switches with the required license and SFP+ interconnects.

Rack-Ready Fixed Hardware

The fixed 1U chassis includes an internal power supply, two fixed fan modules, and front-to-back airflow for rack installation.
