Arista 7280 Models and Specifications

One of the biggest advantages the Arista 7280 Series offers is flexibility. There are several Arista 7280 subseries: the 7280CR, the 7280QR, the 7280SR, and the 7280TR, totaling 18 models.

Each used Arista 7280 network switch model is designed as a fixed-configuration device and is only 1 rack unit (RU) or 2RU in size. However, every model supports up to 100G Ethernet.

Arista 7280QR Series Models

These 1RU and 2RU switches are ideal for a combination of 10G and 100G Ethernet applications.

The port configuration for each 7280QR Arista switch model is as follows:

• The Arista 7280QR-C36 has 24 QSFP+ ports and 12 QSFP28 ports.
• The Arista 7280QRA-C36S has 24 QSFP+ ports and 12 QSFP28 ports.
• The Arista 7280QR-C72 has 56 QSFP+ ports and 16 QSFP28 ports.

Arista 7280TR Models

Another Arista 10G switch solution, all the models in this subseries are also only 1RU in size. In addition to 10G Ethernet, these switches are capable of supporting 100G Ethernet.

The specifications for the two 7280TR switches are as follows:

• The Arista 7280TR-48C6 has 48 RJ45 ports and 6 QSFP28 ports.
• The Arista 7280TRA-48C6 has 48 RJ45 ports and 6 QSFP28 ports.

Arista 7280CR Models

These switches are the most advanced Arista 7280 switches. They are targeted at higher-density 100G Ethernet applications and are available in 1RU and 2RU sizes.

The 7280CR models are available in multiple port configurations:

• The Arista 7280CR2A-30 has 30 QSFP28 ports.
• The Arista 7280CR2K-30 has 30 QSFP28 ports.

• The Arista 7280CR2K-60 has 60 QSFP28 ports.

Arista 7280SR Models

Despite the fact these 7280 Arista 10G switches are only 1RU in size, they feature a high-density configuration, and also include some 100G Ethernet ports.

These switches feature the widest variety of port configuration offerings of the entire series:

• The Arista 7280SR-48C6 has 48 SFP+ ports and 6 QSFP28 ports.

Arista 7280R MACsec and ALgoMatch Models

Although these Arista 7280 switches could be considered part of the 7280SR and 7280CR series, they set themselves apart because they are the only two Arista 7280 design switches that support MACsec ports.

See the port configurations for these two Arista 7280 switches below:

• The Arista 7280SRAM-48C6 has 48 SFP+ ports and 6 QSFP28 ports.
• The Arista 7280CR2M-30 has 30 QSFP28 ports.

The MACsec feature means you don’t need any external encryption devices to protect traffic. Only the QSFP ports on both models support the MACsec feature.

Another feature to consider is the Arista 7280 AlgoMatch, which helps improve power efficiency.

Only some models support it:

• 7280QRA-C36S
• 7280SR2A-48YC6
• 7280SRA-48C6
• 7280TRA-48C6
• 7280CR2A-60
• 7280CR2K-60
• 7280CR2A-30
• 7280CR2K-30
• 7280SR2K-48C6
• 7280SRAM-48C6

Also, note that every Arista 7280 model is available with a few customization options, such as airflow direction — front-to-rear and rear-to-front — and power supply — DC and AC.
