The MX80 license locked is not 5Gb The MX5 is 20Gb TP - 20 SFP ports card, only one MIC slot active The MX10 is 40Gb TP - 20 SFP ports card. both MIC slots active The MX40 is 60Gb TP - 20 SFP ports card, both MIC slots + 2 of the onboard 10GbE ports The MX80 is 80Gb TP - 20 SFP ports card, both MIC slots + all 4 of the onboard 10GbE ports The MX80-48T is 80Gb TP - 48 Copper ports, both MIC slots + all 4 of the onboard 10GbE ports Last year the licensed versions were called MX80-5G, MX8-10G and so on, but as on this month they've renamed them to MX5, MX10, MX40's - note that the old MX80 could come with or without -T timing support, the new ones ONLY have timing. …Skeeve On Sat, Jan 21, 2012 at 3:50 AM, PC <paul4004 () gmail com> wrote:
While the ASR1002 does offer more services, I generally disagree with some parts of this comparison. Juniper has some very aggressive pricing on mx80 bundles license-locked to 5gb, which are cheaper and blow the performance specifications of the equivalent low end ASR1002 out of the water for internet edge BGP applications. Unlike the ASR, a simple upgrade license can unlock the boxes full potential. Just my opinion as a customer of both vendors...

MX80 is not competing against ASR1k, and JNPR has no product to compete with ASR1k. MX80 competes directly with ASR9001. Notable differences include: ASR9001 has lot more memory (2GB/8GB) and lot faster control-plane ASR9001 has 120G of capacity, MX80 80G ASR9001 BOM is higher, as it is not fabricless design like MX80 (this shouldn't affect sale price in relevant way) ASR9001 does not ship just now As others have pointed out ASR1k is 'high touch' router, it does NAPT, IPSEC, pretty much anything and everything, it is the next-gen VXRreally.ASR9001 and MX80 both do relatively few things, but at high capacity. -- ++ytti
