Arista Networks Release 7508 Modular Switch

The Arista 7500 Series modular switch sets a new standard for performance, density, reliability, and power efficiency for data center switches. In a compact 11RU chassis, the Arista 7500 offers 10 Terabits of fabric capacity and 5.76Bpps of L2/3 throughput with 384 wirespeed 1/10 GbE ports and support for 40GbE and 100GbE interfaces in the future. With front-to-rear airflow, redundant and hot swappable supervisor, power, fabric and cooling modules, the 7500 is energy efficient with typical power consumption of 10 watts per port for a fully loaded chassis. All of these attributes make the Arista 7500 an ideal platform for building low latency, high performance, data center networks.
