August 14, 2018 by in Industry News

Juniper Networks has released an acceleration card for its SRX5000 line of firewalls. The SPC3 card readies the product for IoT, 5G and multi-cloud applications.

Juniper Networks has introduced a security acceleration card that boosts the performance of the company’s SRX5000 line of firewalls to future-proof the data centers of service providers, cloud providers and large enterprises.

Juniper designed the services processing card, SPC3, for organizations anticipating large data flows from upcoming multi-cloud, internet-of-things and 5G applications. Besides meeting future demand, the SPC3 can also accommodate current traffic increases due to video conferencing, media streaming and other data-intensive applications.

The SPC3 multiplies performance up to a factor of 11 across key metrics for the SRX5000 line, Juniper said. Organizations using the Juniper SPC2 can upgrade to the SPC3 without service interruptions.

What’s in the SRX5000 line?

The SRX5000 line’s security services include a stateful firewall, an intrusion prevention system, unified threat management and a virtual private network. Network operators manage security policies for SRX5000 hardware through Juniper’s Junos Space Security Director.

With the addition of an SPC, the SRX5000 line can support up to 2 Tbps of firewall throughput. The line’s I/O cards offer a range of connectivity options, including 1 Gigabit Ethernet, 10 GbE, 40 GbE and 100 GbE interfaces.

Security is one area Juniper has reported quarterly revenue growth while overall sales have declined. For the quarter ended June 30, Juniper reported last month revenue from its security business increased to $79.5 million from $68.7 million a year ago.

However, overall revenue fell 8% to $1.2 billion, and the company said sales in the current quarter would also be down. Nevertheless, the company expects to return to quarterly revenue growth in the fourth quarter.
