FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the DCS-7050SX3-48C8-DC-F and standard AC models?
A: The DC-F variant features DC power supplies instead of AC, making it suitable for telecom and service provider environments with DC power infrastructure. The F suffix indicates front-to-rear airflow.

Q: Can the 10G SFP+ ports support lower speeds?
A: Yes, all 48 SFP+ ports can be configured for either 10G or 1G speeds, providing flexibility for mixed-speed deployments and seamless migration paths.

Q: What uplink configurations are supported on the QSFP28 ports?
A: The 8 QSFP28 ports support 100GbE, 40GbE, or can be broken out to 4x25GbE or 4x10GbE, enabling flexible spine connectivity options for various data center topologies.

Q: Does this switch support network virtualization?
A: Yes, the DCS-7050SX3-48C8-DC-F supports VXLAN routing, EVPN-VXLAN, and advanced Layer 2/Layer 3 features through Arista EOS, making it ideal for modern cloud and virtualized environments.

Q: What licenses are required for full Layer 3 functionality?
A: The switch requires EOS licenses depending on features needed. Base functionality includes Layer 2 switching, while advanced routing protocols like BGP, OSPF, and VXLAN require appropriate feature licenses.
