Unlike the DCS-7280SR3M-48YC8-F, which moves air from the port side to the fan side, this model has rear-to-front airflow, from the fan side to the port side. MACsec, defined by IEEE 802.1AE, secures traffic at the data link layer and is transparent to Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic. Its 48 SFP ports run at 1G, 10G or 25G, and its eight QSFP100 ports run at 100G or 40G, with breakout to 10G, 25G and 50G. The switch forwards Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic at wire speed. A deep buffer virtual output queue architecture eliminates head-of-line blocking and keeps performance deterministic. Integrated sFlow engines support accelerated sampling at full wire speed. Hot-swap power supplies and fans provide redundancy, with the power supplies available in AC or DC. The switch runs Arista EOS and supports CloudVision.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arista","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67298465644717,"sku":"DCS-7280SR3M-48YC8-R","price":13995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/7667\/7293\/files\/DCS-7280SR3M-48YC8-F_0748b5db-1a77-4036-9940-c646d0469506.webp?v=1792433205"},{"product_id":"arista-dcs-7280qr-c36-r-36-port-qsfp-deep-buffer-switch-refurbished","title":"Arista DCS-7280QR-C36-R 7280R 36-Port 40G\/100G QSFP Deep Buffer Data Center Switch Router","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Arista DCS-7280QR-C36-R is a 1RU 7280R data center switch router with 36 QSFP ports, made up of 24 QSFP+ ports at 40G and 12 QSFP100 ports. It differs from the DCS-7280QR-C36-F in airflow direction, moving air rear to front where the -F model moves it front to rear, with matching fan and power supply modules. Interfaces can run at 100G, 50G, 40G, 25G or 10G, with up to 12 at 100G, 36 at 40G, 48 at 25G or 144 at 10G. Wire-speed throughput is 4.32 Tbps with a forwarding rate of 1.44 Bpps and latency starting at 3.8 µs. An 8 GB packet buffer and a virtual output queue architecture prevent head-of-line blocking and limit drops during congestion. Layer 3 support covers BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, VRF, BFD and 128-way ECMP, while MLAG and LACP provide resilient Layer 2 uplinks. Two hot-swap 1+1 power supplies, 745 W AC or 1900 W DC, and four hot-swap N+1 fans keep the switch running through single failures. Arista EOS runs on a quad-core x86 CPU with 8 GB of memory, and management uses a 100\/1000 port, RS-232 console and USB port.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arista","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67697193877677,"sku":"DCS-7280QR-C36-R-REF","price":1736.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/7667\/7293\/files\/DCS-7280QR-C36-R.webp?v=1793041701"},{"product_id":"arista-dcs-7280qr-c36-f-36-port-qsfp-deep-buffer-switch-refurbished","title":"Arista DCS-7280QR-C36-F 7280R 36-Port 40G\/100G QSFP Deep Buffer Data Center Switch Router","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Arista DCS-7280QR-C36-F is a 1RU 7280R data center switch router offering 36 QSFP ports, with 24 QSFP+ ports at 40G alongside 12 QSFP100 ports.
