Juniper Networks CEO Rami Rahim said: “While we are encouraged to see improved momentum with our Cloud customers, Service Provider spending remains challenged and we experienced weaker than expected Enterprise orders in the September quarter.”

Routing product revenue fell 18 percent to $407 million, primarily due to Service Provider business. The MX product family declined. PTX grew.

Switching product revenue rose 9 percent to $242 million primarily driven by Cloud. QFX product family increased, while EX declined.

Cloud business generated $272 million, up 6 percent. Service Provider business generated $453 million, down 17 percent, primarily due to Routing.

Enterprise business revenue rose 8 percent to $408 million.
