Description

The Arista DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-F is a powerful, fixed-configuration data center switch built for modern leaf-spine and aggregation architectures. With 48× SFP28 ports that support 1/10/25 GbE and 6× QSFP28 uplinks capable of 100G, it delivers impressive flexibility for evolving network demands. Moreover, the switch offers 3.6 Tbps switching capacity with all ports active, and wire-speed L2/L3 forwarding, making it suitable for high-bandwidth, low-latency environments.

Because it supports IEEE 25G standard, cut-through forwarding, and a 22 MB dynamically shared packet buffer pool, the switch handles traffic bursts gracefully. Furthermore, its “-F” model uses front-to-back airflow, redundant AC power supplies, and hot-swappable fans, ensuring reliability and ease of cooling for high-density racks.

Key Features & Benefits (Arista DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-F)

• Massive Throughput with Low Latency: 3.6 Tbps switching capacity and latency as low as ~450 nanoseconds in cut-through mode.
• Efficient Packet Buffering supporting 22 MB shared buffer pool dynamically allocated to congested ports to maintain performance under load.
• Robust Design & Cooling: Front-to-back airflow direction, redundant AC power supplies, and multiple fan modules ensure high availability.
• Full Layer-2 & Layer-3 wire speed forwarding, telemetry, VXLAN, ZTP, LANZ for microburst detection, automation, and visibility.

Use Cases

• Cloud-Scale Leaf-Spine Fabrics: Ideal for east-west traffic, server rack aggregation, and scalable leaf deployments.
• High-Performance Compute / AI Clusters, particularly useful for workloads that require high bandwidth and minimal latency.
• Data Center Interconnect (DCI) & Aggregation. Core or spine layers connecting multiple racks or pods.
• Supports segmentation, heavy traffic, and reliable performance under mixed workloads.
