My mistake, it's the OCX1100.

What does it mean -  to be SDN ready?

Cheers,

QFX5100 is SDN ready.

Is there any particular reason you prefer EX4600 over QFX5100 ? Not
counting obvious differences like ports and upgrade options.

It's the same chipset after all, and with all upgrades they have the
same 10G density (with breakouts). Is that because you can have more 40G
ports with EX4600 ?

I'm still trying to find out if there are any noticeable software or
feature differences.

well I would recommend the Juniper EX4600 -

They are affordable, highly scalable, stackable and run
JunOS.

We've been quite happy with the EX4550, but the EX4600 is
good too, particularly if you're coming from its younger
brother.
