About the Arista 7060X5 Series 400G Data Center Switch
L2/L3 switching fabric design—BGP, OSPF, IS-IS routing and VXLAN/EVPN overlay capability—determines whether this platform serves as spine, leaf, or edge in modern data center architectures. The Arista 7060X5 Series 400G Data Center Switch (part number DCS-7060X5-64PE) delivers the throughput, port density, and operational flexibility required by hyperscale operators, cloud builders, and enterprise network engineers scaling AI and machine learning infrastructure.
Built on Arista EOS (Extensible Operating System), this 2RU switch combines 64 × 400GbE QSFP-DD ports with 51.2 Tbps switching capacity and 1 Bpps forwarding rate—enabling wire-rate performance across massive East-West data flows. Port breakout to 100G and 200G per lane preserves investment flexibility; native streaming telemetry (gNMI/gRPC), eAPI (REST), and deep API support via Arista CloudVision, Ansible, Puppet, Chef, and OpenConfig allow seamless integration into automated provisioning workflows. Redundant hot-swappable AC or DC power supplies and fan trays ensure continuous uptime. Dual airflow options (front-to-rear and rear-to-front) accommodate diverse data center thermal designs. Whether you are a network architect evaluating 400G fabric options or an IT procurement team standardizing on Arista switching platforms, this system addresses high-performance, high-availability requirements across financial services, media, research, and hyperscale deployments.

Frequently Asked Questions about Arista 7060X5 Series 400G Data Center Switch
Does the Arista 7060X5 Series 400G Data Center Switch support our SFP transceivers?
Most enterprise switches ship without transceivers; we quote vendor-matched optics alongside the switch (Cisco-genuine for Catalyst/Nexus, HPE/Aruba-genuine for CX, Juniper-genuine for QFX/EX). Third-party MSA-compatible options are also available at lower cost — specify preference in the RFQ.
Do you provide stacking / VPC / MLAG configuration help?
Yes — our network engineers can pre-stage stacking, VPC pairs, MLAG, EVPN-VXLAN, or fabric extender configurations in advance, or provide remote commissioning. Add commissioning to your RFQ.
What software licensing is included?
Switch software licensing varies by vendor. Cisco DNA / Cisco DCNM, Aruba CX licensing tiers, Juniper Premium, NVIDIA Cumulus — we quote the licensing tier matched to your features (BGP-EVPN, telemetry, automation). No surprises later.
Is the support global?
Yes — manufacturer hardware support is global (return-to-vendor or advance replacement depending on tier). For 24x7 same-day on-site replacement, attach a SmartNet / Foundation Care / J-Care contract during quoting.
