Arista CCS-750-SUP100 | 750 Series Supervisor Module, 40/100G QSFP Uplinks

Q: Which Arista chassis is the CCS-750-SUP100 compatible with?
A: The CCS-750-SUP100 supervisor module is compatible with both the Arista CCS-755 (5-slot) and CCS-758 (8-slot) modular campus switch chassis. It provides centralized control plane and management plane functions for the 750X Series systems.

Q: What uplink speeds does the CCS-750-SUP100 support?
A: The CCS-750-SUP100 features QSFP uplink ports supporting 40G and 100G speeds. It supports a wide range of optics including multi-rate and bidirectional options, allowing flexible integration and migration paths from 40G to 100G performance without changing fiber cabling.

Q: Can I use dual supervisors for redundancy?
A: Yes, the 750X Series chassis supports dual supervisor modules for high availability. Both supervisors' uplinks remain active even in redundant configurations, providing up to 400Gbps aggregate uplink capacity. Failover from active to standby occurs without control plane changes, and uplinks remain available during supervisor switchover or software upgrades.

Q: What operating system does the CCS-750-SUP100 run?
A: The supervisor module runs Arista EOS, a Linux-based modular operating system with state-sharing architecture. EOS provides advanced automation capabilities including Zero Touch Provisioning, native Linux tool integration, and support for network observability features across the entire campus and data center infrastructure.

Q: Is the supervisor module hot-swappable?
A: Yes, the CCS-750-SUP100 supervisor module is hot-swappable and can be replaced without powering down the chassis when operating in dual-supervisor mode. The module is accessed from the front panel of the chassis and features ejector mechanisms for safe removal and installation.
