Overview The
Arista 7050 Series 10/40G Switches deliver wire-speed Layer 2/3/4 performance
with 52 or 64 10GbE ports in a compact 1RU chassis. Offers. The 7050S-64 switch
offers 48 SFP+ interfaces and 4 QSFP+ interfaces, and the 7050S-52 switch
offers 52 SFP+ interfaces. Each QSFP+ 40GbE port also operates as four
independent 10GbE ports, providing a total of 64 10GbE ports on the 7050S-64
model. The Arista 7050S delivers 800-1200 ns latency in cut-through mode and a
shared 9MB packet buffer pool that is dynamically allocated to congested ports.
The Arista DCS 7050S 10Gb switch has a typical power consumption of less than 2 watts/port
for Twinax copper cables and less than 3 watts/port for SFP/QSFP lasers,
providing industry-leading power efficiency for data centers .
Arista EOS
The Arista 7050S switch runs the same Arista EOS software as all Arista
products, simplifying network management. Arista EOS allows you to run advanced
monitoring and automation features natively on the switch, including zero-touch
provisioning, VM tracers, and Linux-based tools. Arista EOS is a modular switch
operating system with a unique state-sharing architecture that clearly
separates switch state from protocol processing and application logic. All EOS
processes are based on the standard Linux kernel, run in their own protected
memory space, and exchange state through an in-memory database. This
multi-process state release architecture forms the basis for on-the-fly
software updates and self-healing resiliency.
