Model: DCS-7280TR-48C6-R Switch
The Arista DCS-7280TR-48C6-R is a high-performance enterprise-class switch engineered for modern enterprise networking demands. Designed as an Arista switch for large-scale deployments, it offers robust 10GbE RJ45 port density with 48 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports, complemented by 6 x 100 Gigabit Ethernet QSFP uplinks for flexible expansion. Enterprise network architects will appreciate this switch’s advanced capabilities: support for 4,096 VLAN IDs, a 2.16 Tbps switching capacity, and a swift 720 Mpps forwarding rate ensure seamless, efficient enterprise networking operations. The hardware integrates a quad-core x86 processor, dual AC power supplies, and front-to-rear airflow, targeting high reliability and operational continuity essential for large organizations across Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America. The inclusion of redundant power via dual AC lets IT managers deploy this device with confidence, supporting ‘always-on’ initiatives. Its comprehensive management suite—serial console, gigabit management, and two USB ports—streamlines administrative access. System integrators can leverage its massive MAC address table (768,000 entries) and low 3.8 µs latency for scalable, high-performance solutions, while end-users realize dependable network access with assured uptime. With a 4 GB buffer and expandable memory, it is a pivotal backbone for applications requiring consistent throughput. The DCS-7280TR-48C6-R thus defines resiliency, speed, and flexibility in demanding enterprise, campus, or data center environments. Dual AC power and hot-swappable modules support 24/7 operations, making it an ideal Arista switch for cost-sensitive, mission-critical deployments.
