Product Overview

The Arista DCS-7280SR2K-48C6-M-F is an advanced data center switch router from the Arista 7280R2 Series — the next-generation evolution of the 7280R platform, delivering a unique combination of 24x 10GbE SFP+ and 24x 25GbE SFP28 downlink ports alongside 6x 100GbE QSFP uplinks in a compact 1U form factor. With expanded 32GB system memory, an integrated SSD, and front-to-rear airflow, this variant (-M suffix) is purpose-built for deployments requiring full Internet routing table support, large BGP routing tables, and extensive ACL configurations.

Running Arista EOS on a quad-core x86 CPU, the DCS-7280SR2K-48C6-M-F delivers full Layer 3 switch router capabilities including BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, MPLS, SR-MPLS, EVPN, VXLAN, and 128-way ECMP — making it an ideal universal leaf switch for mixed 10G/25G server environments, hyperscale spine-leaf architectures, and service provider edge deployments. The 100GbE uplinks support breakout to 4x25GbE or 4x10GbE for additional downstream flexibility.
