The DCS-7500E-6C2-LC carries six CFP2 ports for 100GbE in Arista 7500E chassis. CFP2 is often chosen for longer-reach 100G links between buildings or data centers, where QSFP optics may not cover the distance.
Ports support 10G, 40G and 100G operation, with a maximum of 6 100GbE, 12 40GbE or 60 10GbE interfaces on the card.
It fits the 7504E and 7508E (DCS-7504 and DCS-7508), and 7504R and 7508R chassis also accept 7500E cards. Arista rates it at 3.84 Tbps per card with system latency under 4 microseconds for 64-byte packets. The card has a 9 GB packet buffer for absorbing bursts on WAN and interconnect links.
Power draw is 300 W typical and 320 W maximum. It weighs 12.4 lb and measures 17.5 x 1.75 x 23 inches (W x H x D). CFP2 transceivers are not included, so match the optic type to the fiber plant and distance on each link.
A seller refurbished DCS-7500E-6C2-LC is also available.
Line cards and fabric modules are hot-swappable in Arista modular chassis, so you can add or replace one without powering the chassis down.
This DCS-7500E-6C2-LC is new and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty. The original packaging may have been opened to inspect the contents.
