NEW Arista DCS-7050S-52-F 52x 10GB SFP+ Front-to-Back Airflow Switch

The DCS-7050S-52-F is a 1RU 10GbE switch from the original 7050 series, with 52 SFP+ ports that each run at 1GbE or 10GbE. There is no separate uplink group, so any port can serve as an uplink.

Capacity is 1.04 Tbps at 780 Mpps, with latency of 800 to 1150 nanoseconds and a 9 MB shared packet buffer. The control plane has 4 GB of DRAM and 2 GB of flash. A 50 GB SSD was offered on a separate variant.

This unit is front-to-back (port-side intake). Arista also sells the opposite airflow version (-R), so match it to the rack. Two 460W AC power supplies run 1+1 hot-swap, with PWR-460AC-F and PWR-460DC-F as spares. Four hot-swap FAN-7000-F fans run N+1. Keep every fan and supply on the same airflow. Arista lists typical and maximum draw of 103W and 185W. The switch is 19 x 16 x 1.75 inches and 17 lb, with a 100/1000 management port, RJ-45 RS-232 console, and USB.

Advanced Layer 3 features such as BGP and OSPF need an Arista Enhanced L3 license, which is not included and is available from Arista partners.

Arista also sells the DCS-7050S-52-R with the opposite airflow. A seller refurbished DCS-7050S-52-F is also available. Matching spares include the PWR-460AC-F power supply and the FAN-7000-F fan module.

This DCS-7050S-52-F is new and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty. The original packaging may have been opened to inspect the contents.
