The brief

A network switch is a gateway into a much larger technical story. For HPE, we designed a compact model of the Juniper QFX5250 through Nteractive. The brief gave a piece of networking hardware a new form: a construction project that puts the equipment itself at the center of attention.

We built the design around the switch’s low rectangular chassis and closely spaced front ports. The open top exposes the internal arrangement, so there is something to explore beyond the face of the unit. Original LEGO® elements create the housing and the components within it. The recognizable proportions keep the connection to the QFX5250 clear even at a smaller scale.

The model extends HPE’s collection from compute and storage into networking. Each subject keeps its own identity, while the shared construction format connects the range. Here, the interest lies in seeing a familiar technical object broken into buildable sections, then brought back together as a complete product model. It is a practical way to make the hardware the subject of a brand conversation.
