Arista Networks DCS-7050TX-48-R Data Center Switch

Arista DCS-7050TX-48-R is a 1U data center switch that combines dense access-layer connectivity with high-speed uplinks, featuring 32 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports and four QSFP+ ports for 40GbE uplinks. The “-R” designation indicates rear-to-front airflow, and the model ships with two hot-swappable AC power supplies to provide redundancy in mission-critical deployments. It delivers up to 960 Gbps of system throughput and offers sub-3 microsecond latency from the copper access ports to the uplinks, driven by a quad‑core x86 CPU and 4 GB of system memory with 4 GB of flash storage and an optional 120 GB SSD for local storage. Two management ports support out-of-band/in-band management needs, making this Arista 7050TX series switch a capable building block for scalable data center fabrics where compact density and reliable 10/40G coexistence are required.
