Specifications

   Overview:
  • The Arista DCS-7050Q-16-F is an advanced Layer 2/3 switch engineered for high-density data center environments. With a total of 16x 40GbE QSFP+ ports and 8x 10GbE SFP+ ports, it delivers flexible and high-bandwidth connectivity options for aggregation or spine-leaf network architectures. Its front-to-back airflow ensures efficient cooling, making it ideal for hot-aisle/cold-aisle rack deployments.
  • Built on Arista’s EOS (Extensible Operating System), the DCS-7050Q-16-F ensures operational reliability, programmability, and rich automation features. The switch is powered by a dual-core x86 CPU, offering smooth performance and network scalability.
   Key Features:
  • High Port Density: 16x QSFP+ 40G ports and 8x SFP+ 10G ports for flexible networking.
  • Front-to-Back Airflow: Efficient cooling for rack-mounted environments with front air intake.
  • Scalable Architecture: Handles large-scale environments with 128,000 MAC addresses and 4096 VLANs.
  • Low Latency: Ideal for latency-sensitive applications with QSFP+ latency of 800-850 ns and SFP+ latency of 800-1150 ns.
  • High-Speed Switching: Delivers 1.28 Tbps switching capacity and a 960 million packets per second (Mpps) forwarding rate.
  • Advanced Buffering: 9MB shared packet buffer for improved data traffic management.
  • EOS Software: Provides rich telemetry, automation, and network visibility.
