For Arista NEW 7000-RM-NT 7048 7050 7124S 7148SX 7150 Rack Mount Bracket Kit

The 7000-RM-NT is a rack mount bracket kit made by NetworkTigers to fit Arista 7048, 7050, 7124S, 7148SX and 7150S switches. It is not an Arista OEM part. Use it only with those exact models, since other Arista 1RU switches use different mounting hardware.

These are all 1RU fixed-configuration switches from Arista's earlier data center lines, and many of them reach the secondary market without their original accessory kit. The 7000-RM-NT gives you the hardware to put one into a standard 19-inch rack.

Plan the installation before the switch goes in. Decide which side of the rack the ports should face, because that choice follows the airflow direction of the switch's fans and power supplies. A front-to-back switch draws air in on the port side and should face the cold aisle, and a back-to-front switch exhausts on the port side and should face the hot aisle. Arista's installation guides note that screws for fastening a switch to the rack posts are not part of its accessory kits, so have rack screws or cage nuts that match your rack on hand.

If you prefer the Arista OEM part, the KIT-7000 Arista 1RU accessory kit covers the 7150, 7048-A, 7050 and 7124SX. The DCS-7150S-24-F 24-port 10G switch is one of the switches this kit fits.

This 7000-RM-NT rack mount kit is new and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty. The original packaging may have been opened to inspect the contents.
