What is the port configuration and throughput of DCS-7050S-52-F?

Features 52x SFP+ ports supporting 1/10GbE, delivering 1.04Tbps full-duplex throughput and 780Mpps forwarding rate. All ports operate at wire speed with non-blocking architecture, ideal for dense server access in data centers.

What latency does the Arista DCS-7050S-52-F provide?

Sub-microsecond latency of 800-1150ns for SFP+ ports ensures minimal delay in L2/L3 forwarding. This supports high-performance applications like HPC and low-latency trading with consistent performance under full load.

What advanced routing features are supported?

Includes BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, MP-BGP with 16K IPv4 routes, 32K host routes, 8K IPv6 routes, 32-way ECMP, PIM-SM/SSM, VRRP, and policy-based routing. Enables scalable, redundant L3 fabrics for cloud providers.

How does it handle high-density deployments?

Cloud-ready with 128K MAC entries, 4096 VLANs, 9MB dynamic buffers, up to 16-port LAGs, and Multi-chassis LAG for active/active multipathing. ZTP and EOS live patching simplify large-scale operations.

What management and monitoring capabilities exist?

EOS supports ZTP, AEM event management, sFlow (RFC 3176), TCPDump, optional 50GB SSD for logging, SNMPv2/3, SSHv2, and Linux tools. Facilitates automated provisioning and troubleshooting.

Is it suitable for front-to-rear airflow data centers?

Yes, DCS-7050S-52-F variant specifies front-to-rear airflow with redundant fans and 2x 460W AC PSUs. Operates 0-40°C with ROHS compliance for standard rack environments.

Product overview

The Arista DCS-7050S-52-F is a high-performance 1RU data center switch designed for wire-speed Layer 2/3/4 forwarding with 52x 1/10GbE SFP+ ports delivering 1.04Tbps throughput and 780Mpps packet processing. Featuring ultra-low latency of 800-1150ns, 9MB dynamic buffer allocation, and cloud-scale tables including 128K MAC addresses, 16K IPv4 routes, 32K host routes, and 8K IPv6 routes, it excels in high-density Top-of-Rack deployments. Advanced features like 32-way ECMP, Multi-chassis LAG, BGP/OSPF/IS-IS, VRRP, PIM, and Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) enable scalable cloud networking with redundancy and load balancing. Dual-core x86 CPU, 4GB system memory, optional 50GB SSD, front-to-rear airflow, and 1+1 redundant 460W AC PSUs ensure reliability. Management via EOS with live patching, sFlow, and AEM supports automated operations in large-scale data centers, HPC, and enterprise spine/leaf architectures.
