Features

High Density, Fixed Configuration

The Arista 7020R Gigabit Ethernet Data Center Switch Series are purpose-built, high-density, leaf switches with wire speed L2 and L3 features for software designed for server connectivity.

Delivers 48 100/1000 MB RJ45 link ports and 6 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+ uplinks for high-density server connectivity environments.

Supports a flexible combination of low latency and deep buffers in compact form factors for consistent and predictable application performance.

The lower power requirements enable reduced operating costs.

High port density with low 3.8 msec latency for RJ45 interconnects for faster applications.

Supported by Arista EOS

Combined with Arista EOS software, the Arista 7020R Gigabit Ethernet Data Center Switch Series delivers advanced features for cloud, Big Data, virtualized and traditional data centers.

Arista EOS is a modular switch operating system with a unique state-sharing architecture that cleanly separates switch state from protocol processing and application logic.

All EOS processes run in their own protected momory space and exchange state through an in-memory database.

Provides a foundation for in-service-software updates and self-healing resiliency.

With advanced monitoring and automation capabilities such a Zero Touch Provisioning, VMTracer and Linux based tools can be run natively on the switch.
