Description

The Arista DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-R is a high-density 1RU data center switch delivering 48 ports of 25GbE SFP28 and 6 ports of 100GbE QSFP28 with rear-to-front airflow. Engineered for leaf-tier deployments in cloud-scale and HPC environments, it offers wire-speed Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding, 3.6 Tbps switching capacity, and ultra-low latency of 450ns. Running Arista EOS, it supports VXLAN, EVPN, advanced telemetry, and automation for modern data center fabrics.

Features

Wire-speed Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding with ultra-low latency (450ns)
- IEEE 25GbE standard support with multi-speed capability on SFP28 and QSFP28 ports
- 22 MB shared packet buffer dynamically allocated to congested ports
- Single-chip system architecture for consistent, deterministic performance
- Arista EOS with VXLAN and EVPN overlay support for multi-tenant segmentation
- Enhanced ECMP routing with up to 128-way path diversity
- Advanced telemetry and monitoring: LANZ, DANZ, sFlow, NetFlow
- API-driven automation: eAPI, JSON-RPC, Python scripting
- Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) for rapid large-scale deployments
- Hot-swappable redundant power supplies and fan modules (N+1)
- Rear-to-front airflow for efficient hot aisle / cold aisle cooling
- Support for DAC, AOC, and optical transceivers (short and long range)
- Advanced QoS and traffic management features
- Non-stop forwarding and SSU (Smart System Upgrade) for hitless upgrades

FAQs

Q: Can the SFP28 ports operate at different speeds?
A: Yes, the 48 SFP28 ports can be configured in groups of 4 to run at 1GbE, 10GbE, or 25GbE speeds, providing flexibility for mixed-speed deployments and seamless migration from legacy 10G infrastructure.

Q: What breakout options are available on the QSFP28 uplink ports?
A: Each of the 6 QSFP28 ports supports multiple speeds: 100GbE, 40GbE, 4x25GbE, 4x10GbE, or 2x50GbE. All ports can operate in any mode without limitation, enabling flexible top-of-rack and spine configurations.

Q: Is this switch suitable for leaf-spine data center architectures?
A: Absolutely. The DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-R is optimized for leaf-tier deployments with dense 10G/25G server connectivity and high-capacity 100G uplinks. It supports VXLAN, EVPN overlays, and up to 128-way ECMP for scalable, redundant leaf-spine fabrics.

Q: What is the difference between the -R and -F models?
A: The -R suffix denotes rear-to-front (back-to-front) airflow, while the -F model features front-to-rear airflow. Select the airflow direction based on your data center hot aisle / cold aisle cooling design.

Q: Does the switch support network automation and telemetry?
A: Yes, the DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-R runs Arista EOS, which provides comprehensive API-driven automation (eAPI, Python), Zero Touch Provisioning, and advanced telemetry tools like LANZ (Latency Analyzer) and DANZ (Data Analyzer) for real-time network visibility and performance optimization.
