NEW Arista DCS-7050T-52-F 48x 10GB Copper 4x 10GB SFP+ Front-to-Back Air Switch

The DCS-7050T-52-F is a 1RU top-of-rack switch from the original 7050 series, with 48 RJ-45 ports at 1GbE or 10GbE (10GBASE-T) and four 10GbE SFP+ uplinks. It connects a full rack of copper-attached servers without optics on the access side.

Capacity is 1.04 Tbps at 780 Mpps. Arista lists latency of 3.3 microseconds on the RJ-45 ports and 800 to 1150 nanoseconds on the SFP+ uplinks, with a 9 MB shared packet buffer. Memory is 4 GB of DRAM and 2 GB of flash, and a 50 GB SSD was offered on the -D 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 AC supplies run 1+1 hot-swap, with 460W spares listed as PWR-460AC-F and PWR-460DC-F. Four hot-swap FAN-7000-F fans run N+1. Keep fans and supplies on the same airflow. Typical and maximum draw are 301W and 395W. The switch weighs 20.9 lb and measures 19 x 16 x 1.75 inches.

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

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