Arista 7048 Reliable Edge Switches - Refurbished, Used, and New
The Arista 7048 is a 1RU gigabit access and top-of-rack switch with 48 100/1000BASE-T RJ45 ports and four 1/10G SFP+ uplinks, running Arista EOS. It is non-blocking with 40 Gbps of uplink bandwidth, and has redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans. The family comes in two versions, the original 7048T-4S and the later 7048T-A, each with front-to-back or back-to-front airflow. Arista has ended sale of both, so these units suit replacement and expansion of existing 7048 networks. NetworkTigers carries the 7048 refurbished, used and new, with the power supplies, fans and rack kit to keep it running, and every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Reading 7048 part numbers
- 7048T: T means RJ45 copper access ports. Every 7048 has 48 of them.
- -A: the later version of the 7048T. It adds Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and ships with 460W power supplies.
- -4S: the original 7048T, with four SFP+ uplinks. It ships with 760W power supplies.
- -F and -R at the end: airflow. -F moves air front-to-back and -R moves air back-to-front. The same letters on fans and power supplies show the airflow they match.
- PWR-460AC and PWR-760AC: the number is the watts and AC is the input.
Which version do I need?
- 7048T-A or 7048T-4S: match the version you already run. For a new deployment the -A is the later design, with ZTP.
- Airflow: match the airflow to your hot and cold aisles, and buy fans and power supplies with the same letter as the switch.
- Replacement parts: choose the power supply by version and airflow, 460W for the -A and 760W for the -4S. Check the listing for the fan that fits your version.
What's included
Each switch listing's What's Included section names the power supplies and fans that ship with it. Optics and cables are sold separately.
FAQ
What is the difference between the 7048T-A and the 7048T-4S?
Both have 48 100/1000BASE-T RJ45 ports and four 1/10G SFP+ uplinks. The -A is the later version, with Zero Touch Provisioning, and ships with 460W power supplies. The -4S is the original and ships with 760W power supplies.
Can I mix airflow directions in one switch?
No. The fans and power supplies in a switch must all match its airflow direction.
Are optics included?
No. The SFP+ ports take 1G and 10G optics and twinax cables, which are sold separately.
