EX4600 sofware does support breaking out a QSFP+ ports into 4x SFP+ 10G 
interfaces so I guess the issue is more technical than political. (EX4600 and 
QFX5100 use the same chip internally.)

Likely to make you buy a QFX5100/5100-48T/5100-96/xxx5048 instead. (or

and out of EX; the moving you towards VCF/QF datacentre/fabric-ready/CLOS 
switching vs traditional switching products.

<grain of salt> Likely no technical reason, other than "they didn't wan you to do it" 
perhaps - It all depends on what PLM is allowing on a platform vs positioning of the other products 
in the portfolio. </grain of salt>.

Echoing again, best to speak with your AM/SE team in terms of product 
direction/roadmap.

Why?


Like the EX4300 the 40GE ports cannot be channelized to 4 x 10G
