Arista CCS-750XPM-48TXH-LC | Cognitive Campus 750X 48-Port Multi-Gig PoE+ Line Card, 90W

Q: What devices can the CCS-750XPM-48TXH-LC power with its 90W PoE capability?
A: The 90W per port PoE capability supports high-power devices including Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, PTZ IP cameras, video conferencing systems, digital signage, industrial IoT sensors, and advanced wireless controllers. The cognitive power management dynamically allocates power based on actual device requirements.

Q: Which Arista chassis is this line card compatible with?
A: The CCS-750XPM-48TXH-LC is designed for use with Arista Cognitive Campus 750XPM series modular chassis, including both the 5-slot and 8-slot models. It requires compatible supervisor and switch card modules to operate.

Q: Does this line card support different port speeds simultaneously?
A: Yes, each RJ45 port auto-negotiates speeds from 100Mbps up to 10Gbps, allowing you to connect a mix of devices with different speed requirements on the same line card. This provides flexibility for mixed environments with legacy and modern endpoints.

Q: Is MACsec encryption included or does it require additional licensing?
A: While all 48 ports have hardware capability for 256-bit MACsec encryption, MACsec is a separately licensed feature for the 750X series system. This provides dataplane security and zero-trust networking capabilities when enabled.

Q: Can this line card be hot-swapped without affecting other modules?
A: Yes, the CCS-750XPM-48TXH-LC is hot-swappable, allowing installation or replacement without shutting down the chassis or disrupting other active line cards. The 750X architecture ensures hitless operation during maintenance windows.
