DATASHEET
SRX1400 Services
Gateway
Product Overview
The SRX1400 Services Gateway is
a professional-grade platform for
security ideally suited for small to
mid-size data centers, enterprise, and
service provider network deployments
where consolidated functionality,
uncompromising 10 Gbps performance,
compact environmental footprint, and
affordability are key requirements.
The SRX1400 expands the SRX Series
family of next-generation security
platforms, delivering market-leading
performance and extensive service
integration to 10GbE environments
where the features are required without
the massive scalability provided by
SRX3000 and SRX5000 lines.
The SRX1400 is available in two base
configurations offering a choice of
built-in high-density 1GbE ports or
combination of built-in 10GbE ports
and 1GbE ports. For enhanced flexibility,
the SRX1400 can use the integrated
SRX1400 NSPC processing card or
use separate NPC and SPC cards from
the SRX3000 line, simplifying sparing
logistics and interoperability. The
appliance includes one expansion slot
on the front panel.
Product Description
Juniper Networks® SRX1400 Services Gateway is the newest member of the market-leading
SRX Series data center line. Purpose-built to protect 10GbE network environments, the
SRX1400 consolidates multiple security services and networking functions in a highlyavailable appliance. Featuring a modular design that uses common form-factor modules
serviceable from the front panel, the SRX1400 incorporates innovation that improves
reliability, enhances network availability and delivers deterministic performance of
concurrent security services at scale.
Combining Juniper’s Dynamic Services Architecture and Juniper Networks Junos® operating
system with carrier-class features based on the proven design of the SRX3000 line of
services gateways, SRX1400 sets a new standard in value by extending the SRX Series
data center line to cost-effectively satisfy network security requirements in smaller
environments. Each SRX1400 Services Gateway consolidates multiple security services
in one chassis under one integrated security policy, while delivering the uncompromised
performance needed to support 10GbE environments in today’s high-performance networks.
Purpose-Built for Network Security Professionals
The SRX1400 is a carrier grade appliance designed from the ground up for long, trouble-free
service life of continuous operation in demanding, high-performance data center network
environments. Designed and produced using a TL 9000 registered quality management
system, the SRX1400 is 100% Juniper - software, support services and hardware including
innovative new chipsets to separate control and user planes, enabling performance to scale
to new levels required to meet the needs of high performance networks.
Dynamic Services Architecture
The high-end SRX Series uses the Juniper Dynamic Services Architecture to distribute
data sessions between multi-core processing resources dynamically, on-the-fly. Instead
of binding network traffic and services to specific CPU cores and processing resources
in a fixed or rigid manner, as other vendors do, Dynamic Services Architecture balances
traffic session processing work load dynamically within a pool formed from all available
resources. This avoids an all-too-common situation experienced on general-purpose
computing platforms used for security, where a subset of resources operate at or near
their maximum limits while other resources are under-used or idle.
