Juniper EX4100-F model decoder: what every part number means

Every EX4100-F part number encodes the port count, whether the switch delivers PoE, and whether it is a TAA-compliant variant. Once you can read the pattern, you never order the wrong model.

How the naming works

Example: EX4100-F-48P-TAA = EX4100-F series, 48 ports, PoE, TAA compliant.

Common questions

Which EX4100-F for wireless access points?
A P model — the EX4100-F-24P or 48P depending on port count. APs draw power over Ethernet, so a T model would need separate injectors.
Which models for US government or public sector?
The -TAA variants: EX4100-F-24T-TAA, 24P-TAA, 48T-TAA and 48P-TAA. They are the TAA compliant versions required for many federal and public sector purchases.
Is there a 12-port TAA model?
Not in the official lineup — TAA variants start at 24 ports.
