SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR), the leader in high-performance networking, today announced that Internet Initiative Japan Inc. (IIJ) has deployed MX-series Ethernet Services Routers to enhance network performance, reliability and service versatility in addition to addressing power supply and space constraints. By upgrading its legacy infrastructure with MX960 and MX480 routers, IIJ scaled its network capacity to manage growing Ethernet traffic--which doubled in the past year--without overloading electrical resources at the company's site.

'Juniper Networks helped us overcome our topmost challenge of limited on-site power for our backbone router facility,' said Junichi Shimagami, director, network services, IIJ. 'We are concerned about both electrical power capacity and rack space, so it was not feasible to simply add more routers in order to handle increased traffic demands. With the MX-series, Juniper Networks met our goal of controlling network costs without sacrificing the high-quality services that have earned the loyalty of our customers.'
