Description
This is an excellent modular switch and was the first switch
juniper came out with so it is showing its age.
It has modular uplinks {1 or 10G}
Everything is field replaceable though.
It runs Virtual Chassis using a proprietary port 128Gbps
It can stack with a 10G switch
Redundant power
You can offer the EX4300 instead bundled with QFX switches.

Models and part numbers
These are the simple guys
24 port non PoE
24 port PoE
same thing with 48 ports.
These are the same but TAA,
TAA - Trade Agreement Act
When you sell to the USA government in a contract over the sum of $194,000 the products must comply with TAA. This means they are
mostly produced or modified in the USA or a country that has a reciprocal trade agreement with the USA.
{China and most notable electronic makers are absent }
So basically, the parts are the same parts as a regular EX3300 but it is assembled in the USA, this will add 20% or less to the cost of each item.
Notice, when selling to the government of the USA you MUST use TAA.
DC powered built into the switch.
SFP port switches
EX4200-24F
EX4200-24F-TAA
EX 4200, 24-port 1000BaseX SFP + 320W AC PS, includes 50cm VC cable
EX 4200 TAA, 24-port 1000BaseX SFP + 320W AC PS
The above use SFP instead of RJ-45 ports.
They are used to aggregate older switches.
There is a DC model at the DC section above.
Uplinks
On the right bottom corner you have an uplink module.
The module can be
By default you get the blank faceplate.
The SFP is good for 1G
The 2X4SFP is excellent for 1G/10G as it uses SFP+ which are easier and can be 3rd party.
The XFP one sucks and I have never seen a client buy one.
Layer 3 routing protocols support
Each of these switches can be upgraded to support Layer 3.
Each of these switches can be upgraded to support Layer 3.

Advanced Feature License for EX 4200-24
Advanced Feature License for EX 4200-48
To use the following features on Juniper Networks EX3200, EX4200, EX4500, EX6200, and EX8200 Ethernet Switches, you must install an advanced feature license (AFL):
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and multiprotocol BGP (MBGP)
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS)
IPv6 protocols: OSPFv3, RIPng, IS-IS for IPv6, IPv6 BGP
MPLS with RSVP-based label-switched paths (LSPs) and MPLS-based circuit cross-connects (CCCs)
http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.1/topics/concept/ex-series-software-licenses-overview.html
To get an AFL license please provide the Serial number of the switch.
show chassis hardware
then reach out to your representative, if you don't have one let me know.
They will be able to generate the required license.
Power Cords
These power cords are pretty simple.
They are C13 on one side.
the other side will depend on the country.
If you need a different length or if you come from a country not on this list.
You can use a third party cable. We can provide this.
*By default the switch comes with 1 cable for the country it is being sold to.

I have no idea what the baffle kit is for
I will have to reach out to Juniper for this.
I guess it has something to do with airflow.
or you could say I am baffled : )

This kit is included when you buy a switch, if you lost it you can order the above.

Has the following ports.

Uplink slot for 1/10G

1 Console port rollover

Optics
Supported SFPs are
I've arranged this by the chances of someone ordering them
1 Gbps optics.
T is copper
SX is multimode
For singlemode ask for the distance to verify which one.
100 speed optics also called FE
EX-SFP-1FE-FX
EX-SFP-1FE-LX
EX-SFP-1FE-LX40K
SFP 100Base-FX Fast Optics, 1310nm for 2km transmission on MMF
SFP 100base-LX Fast Optics, 1310nm for 10km transmission on SMF
SFP FE 100base-LX Fast Optics, 1550nm for 40km transmission on SMF
These are mainly for backward compatibility to very old devices.
CWDM optics
CWDM allows you to use eight active wavelengths. So basically 8 people can send on the same fiber cable.
Each of the above works in one wavelength and the other side must have the same optic wavelength.
Single Strand
Single strand allows a client to get 1 Gbps of traffic on a single fiber cable.
So for example if the client has 1 Fiber cable
He can double the throughput he can run on it by using single strand technology.
So instead of 1Gbps of traffic, he can run 2Gbps. Blue will be receive and red will be send.
Anyway, I doubt many people are smart enough to use this and both sides must support the SFP technology.
There is a USB port.
The USB port supports 1G , 2G ,4G
RE-USB-1G-S
RE-USB-2G-S
RE-USB-4G-S
USB media upgrade/spare for RE
2GB USB media upgrade/spare for RE
4GB USB media upgrade/spare for RE
Virtual Chassis
Like we said, this switch has Virtual Chassis ports built into it.
To order the Virtual Chassis cables.
Support options are.
Next Day Ship, this applies only to (AVAILABLE FOR BRAZIL, RUSSIA, INDIA, AND CHINA ONLY)
and means that they will ship it the next day, not when it arrives.
The support changes by country.
If your client is looking to save a little more.
Juniper has 3 year pre-paid bundles.
If and only if your client has 10 units or more.
He can get a site license.
For example if you are a school, where you mount these under the desks.
You can save a lot of money and get a site license.
All the units at the site must have this applied to them.
