Overview

Increased adoption of high performance servers coupled with applications using

higher bandwidth is accelerating the need for dense 10/40 and 25/100 Gigabit

Ethernet switching in both leaf and spine tiers of modern networks. The Arista 7060X

and 7260X Series are purpose built high performance, high density, fixed

configuration, data center switches with wire speed layer 2 and layer 3 features,

combined with advanced features for software defined cloud networking and

emerging requirements. The Arista 7060X and 7260X are key components of the

Arista portfolio of data center switches delivering a rich choice of interface speed

and density allowing customers to seamlessly evolve from existing 10GbE and

40GbE to 25GbE, 50GbE and 100GbE.

The 7060SX2-48YC6, 7060CX2-32S, 7060CX-32S and 7260CX-64 support a flexible

combination of speeds including 10G, 25G, 40G and 100G in compact form factors

that allows customers to design networks to accommodate the myriad different

applications and east-west traffic patterns found in modern data centers whilst

providing investment protection. In addition, the 7060CX2-32S and 7060SX2 enable

seamless transition for 1/10/25G servers with IEEE 25G support.

Combined with Arista EOS both the 7060X and 7260X Series deliver advanced

features for cloud, big data, virtualized and traditional data centers.

Arista EOS

The Arista 7060X and 7260X run the same Arista EOS software as all Arista products,

simplifying network administration. 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. Built on top of a standard Linux kernel, all

EOS processes run in their own protected memory space and exchange state

through an in-memory database. This multi-process state sharing architecture

provides the foundation for in-service-software updates and self-healing resiliency.

With Arista EOS, advanced monitoring and automation capabilities such as Zero

Touch Provisioning, VMTracer and Linux based tools can be run natively on the

switch with the powerful x86 CPU subsystem.
