Arista DCS-7010TX-48C-DC-F | 7010X 48-Port Gigabit Switch, 4x 25G SFP+, DC

Q: What is the difference between the 48C and 48 models?
A: The 48C is a compact variant optimized for high-density deployments. Both provide 48 Gigabit ports and 4 x 25G SFP uplinks, but the 48C offers a space-efficient design ideal for copper-dense server racks.

Q: Does this switch support DC power redundancy?
A: Yes, the DCS-7010TX-48C-DC-F supports dual redundant DC power supplies for high availability in telco and data center environments requiring DC power infrastructure.

Q: What deployment scenarios is this switch designed for?
A: Ideal for top-of-rack server connectivity, out-of-band management networks, virtualization clusters, storage fabrics, and as the 1G edge layer in leaf-spine data center architectures.

Q: What Layer 3 features does this switch support?
A: Running Arista EOS, it provides full Layer 3 routing including OSPF, BGP, static routing, VXLAN, EVPN, MLAG, VRF, and advanced QoS capabilities for modern data center fabrics.

Q: Can the uplink ports support different speeds?
A: Yes, the 4 SFP ports are flexible and support 1G, 10G, or 25G operation with appropriate transceivers, allowing mixed-speed uplink configurations to match your network architecture.
