New Chennai airport terminals open with Juniper Networks

Juniper Networks has deployed a high-performance common use network infrastructure for the new passenger terminals at Chennai Airport. The Airports Authority of India (AAI) is using Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches, integrated with Juniper's security and routing devices, within its new terminals, to support common use applications such as Common Use Terminal Equipment (CUTE), passenger information processing systems, Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS) and video surveillance.

Juniper Networks' advanced EX Series switching technology will ensure performance is maintained when the network transitions from IPv4 to IPv6.

Juniper Switches have been deployed to form highly-resilient network data center cores capable of supporting up to 128 non-blocking 10 Gigabit per second Ethernet (GbE) ports.

The switches also form the network access layer in the new airport terminals, providing a high density of wire-speed GbE ports, with power-over-Ethernet for IP network surveillance cameras.
