Product Description
Juniper Networks
®
WXC Series Application Acceleration Platforms, members of a larger
family of WAN optimization solutions from Juniper Networks, provide distributed enterprises
with a cost-effective solution for accelerating mission-critical business applications, as
well as voice, video and terminal services, over wide-area networks, maximizing WAN
investments and improving application response times for branch office users.
The WXC Series improves application performance over the WAN by recognizing and
eliminating redundant transmissions, accelerating TCP and application-specific protocols,
prioritizing and allocating access to bandwidth, and ensuring high application availability
at sites with multiple WAN links. On-board hard drives that provide the foundation for
the Network Sequence Caching feature enables the WXC Series to store particularly
large data patterns over long periods of time, allowing the devices to identify and remove
repetitive traffic separated by gigabytes of data or last seen days or even weeks earlier,
producing up to a 100-fold increase in effective WAN capacity.
The TCP-, application- and protocol-specific acceleration features help overcome the
impacts of latency, dramatically improving response times for remote and branch-office
users accessing centralized applications over the WAN. Quality of service (QoS) and
bandwidth management tools allow IT to prioritize application traffic, ensuring mission-
critical transactions always have sufficient bandwidth while preventing less important
applications from consuming an inordinate amount of valuable WAN resources.
Product Overview
Juniper Networks WXC Series
Application Acceleration Platforms
provide distributed enterprises with
a scalable approach to accelerating
the delivery of client-server and Web-
based business applications and
services – including ERP, CRM, email
and file services as well as voice,
video and terminal services such as
Citrix – over the WAN. Based on the
comprehensive WX Series Framework,
which delivers the elements needed
to accelerate applications over
wide-area links and optimize WAN
performance, the WXC Series helps
businesses make the most ecient use
of their existing WAN resources and
improve application response times by
providing a more LAN-like experience
for branch oce users accessing
centralized applications.
