Description

The Arista 7020R4 is a high-density 25GbE/100GbE switch router engineered for demanding spine, leaf, and data centre interconnect deployments. Packing 48x 25GbE SFP ports alongside 8x 100GbE QSFP ports, this platform delivers exceptional port density and forwarding capacity in a compact chassis — ideal for hyperscale aggregation, cloud, and enterprise core networks. Enhanced encryption support ensures traffic security at line rate, while front-to-rear airflow and dual AC power supplies address data centre cooling and redundancy requirements.

Running Arista EOS, the 7020R4 benefits from a consistent, extensible operating system with advanced L2/L3 routing, EVPN/VXLAN overlay support, and deep telemetry capabilities via Arista CloudVision. The platform is well-suited to organisations building software-defined data centre fabrics or high-throughput campus cores.

FAQs

Q: What is the Arista DCS-7020R4M-48Y-8QC-F designed for?
A: The 7020R4 is designed for data centre spine/leaf architectures, cloud aggregation, and enterprise core deployments requiring high-density 25GbE access with 100GbE uplink capacity and hardware-accelerated encryption at line rate.

Q: What does the 'F' suffix mean in the SKU?
A: The 'F' designates front-to-rear airflow, which is the standard airflow direction for hot-aisle/cold-aisle data centre deployments where cool air enters from the front of the rack.

Q: Does this switch support EVPN and VXLAN?
A: Yes. Running Arista EOS, the 7020R4 supports EVPN/VXLAN overlay networking, making it well-suited for building software-defined data centre fabrics and multi-tenant environments.

Q: What does 'enhanced encryption' mean on the 7020R4?
A: Enhanced encryption (the 'M' designation) indicates hardware-assisted MACsec or advanced encryption capabilities processed at line rate, ensuring traffic confidentiality without impacting forwarding performance.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista DCS-7020R4M-48Y-8QC-F in Australia?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian IT hardware specialist offering Arista equipment to B2B customers across Australia. Contact us for pricing, availability, and volume quotes.

Q: What management and telemetry options are available?
