The Arista DCS-7060CX-32S-F is a high-performance 32-port 40/100GbE QSFP100 switch with 2x 10GbE SFP+ ports, designed for next-generation data center networking. Featuring front-to-rear airflow for efficient cooling, this compact 1U switch delivers exceptional scalability, low latency, and high bandwidth to meet demanding cloud and enterprise environments.
The Arista 7060CX-32S supports 6.4Tbps switching capacity, ensuring wire-speed Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding across all ports. With flexible port configurations, it supports 100GbE, 40GbE, 4x10GbE, 4x25GbE, or 2x50GbE options, allowing seamless top-of-rack (ToR) and spine deployments with a wide range of QSFP transceivers and cables.
Equipped with ultra-low latency of just 450 nanoseconds in cut-through mode, the Arista 7060CX-32S-F ensures minimal delay for latency-sensitive workloads. Its 16MB dynamic shared packet buffer optimizes traffic handling, reducing congestion. The 7060CX2-32S variant further enhances performance with IEEE 25GbE support and an expanded 22MB shared buffer, maintaining the same ultra-low 450ns latency.
Built on the Arista EOS (Extensible Operating System), the 7060X and 7260X Series switches offer advanced network automation, telemetry, and cloud-scale performance, making them ideal for high-density data centers, cloud environments, and enterprise networks.
