Hey Felix,

You can buy racks with panels that guide the right-to-left airflow from front-to-back:

What cabinets do you have the switch installed in? The 19' or 24'

600x1200mm racks, hot/cold aisle, yes, it's problematic. Totally
braindead decision by Juniper, as I reckon data center is one of the
target areas for the switches. But the marketing-slide port density goes
down if you do proper cooling...

Kind regards,

Felix

PS: we ended up axing the racks left & right of the EX and had our
workshop build some custom sheet metal airflow guides, which effectively
cuts the port density by two thirds.
