Description

The Arista DCS-7160-48TC6-R is a powerful modular switch designed for high-density, high-performance networking in data center environments. It features a versatile port configuration, providing 48 ports that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over standard RJ45 copper cabling, ideal for connecting servers and other endpoints. Complementing these are 6 QSFP28 ports, each capable of supporting 100 Gigabit Ethernet, which are crucial for high-speed uplinks, aggregation, or core network connections. The 'R' designation in the model number typically indicates a configuration with redundant power supplies and fans, enhancing the reliability and availability of the switch in critical data center deployments. The switch is built to deliver low latency and high throughput, essential for modern applications such as cloud computing, big data analytics, and high-frequency trading. It runs on Arista's Extensible Operating System (EOS), known for its flexibility, programmability, and advanced network features. With a substantial switching capacity of 2.4 Terabits per second (Tbps) and a forwarding rate of 1.8 Billion packets per second (Bpps), the DCS-7160-48TC6-R is capable of handling massive amounts of network traffic efficiently. This makes it a suitable choice for demanding aggregation layers or even as a core switch in smaller to medium-sized data centers, providing a robust platform for network growth and evolution.
