Marketing Information: HPE and Arista share a common vision around the need to deliver secure hybrid IT solutions and experiences built on industry-leading software-defined infrastructure-helping customers to operate their workloads with speed and agility to grow their business. This partnership will provide our customers with proven networking solutions that are superior to legacy alternatives and that complement HPE compute, storage, virtualization, and cloud offerings.
Increased adoption of high performance servers coupled with applications using higher bandwidth is accelerating the need for dense 100 Gigabit Ethernet switching in both leaf and spine tiers of modern networks. The Arista 7260X3 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.
With 64 QSFP100 ports the 7260CX3-64 is a dense 40/100GbE system that can support a flexible combination of up to 64x 40/100GbE, 128x 50GbE or 10/25GbE of wire speed performance in a 2RU system. The Arista 7260CX3-64 combines low latency, and a shared packet buffer pool of 42MB that is allocated dynamically to ports that are congested.
Combining 100GbE density and industry leading power efficiency with typical power consumption under 10W per 100GbE port the 7260CX3-64 is ideal for both middle and end-of-row leaf or collapsed spine tiers with airflow choices for back to front, or front to back.
With support for a flexible combination of speeds including 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G and combined with Arista EOS, the 7260CX3-64 delivers rich features for big data, cloud, virtualized and traditional designs and accommodates the myriad different applications and east-west traffic patterns found in modern data centers.
Arista Extensible Operating System (EOS)
The Arista 7260X3 series runs 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, VM Tracer and Linux based tools can be run natively on the switch with the powerful x86 CPU subsystem.
Model overview
The 7260CX3-64 is a 2RU system with 64 100G QSFP ports offering wire speed performance with an overall throughput of up to 12.8 Tbps. Each QSFP port is capable of a choice of 100GbE, 40GbE, 4x10GbE, 4x25GbE or 2x50GbE with hitless configuration change between modes. The 64 QSFP ports can be broken out to a system maximum of 128 ports allowing for easy transitions and maximum flexibility enabling deployment as both a leaf and spine. The two SFP+ ports provide additional connections for low speed management networks or out of band monitoring.
Consistent features to both the Arista 7060CX and 7260CX Series combined with lower power and high 100GbE density means the 7260CX3 is optimized for 100GbE top of rack and spine tiers, high density storage and next generation financial trading systems requiring predictable performance with low latency.
