Description

The Arista 7130LS Series Layer 1+ FPGA Switch delivers deterministic 5-nanosecond port-to-port switching across 96 SFP+ ports, purpose-built for ultra-low latency environments such as high-frequency trading, financial market data distribution, and latency-sensitive data centre interconnect. At the heart of the platform is a Xilinx Virtex UltraScale+ VU7P-2 FPGA, giving network engineers and developers unrestricted access to custom application development alongside Arista's own network applications — including MetaMux (39ns ultra-low latency multiplexing) and MetaWatch (sub-nanosecond precise timestamping). The 2RU chassis features redundant dual AC power supplies and front-to-rear airflow, with an integrated x8664 server running Arista EOS for full programmability and automation.

The 7130LS combines Layer 1+ switching capabilities — dynamic patching, tapping, one-to-many replication, media conversion, and precise timestamping — with a built-in FPGA application framework and Arista FPGA Development Kits (FDK) for streamlined deployment of custom or third-party logic. CloudVision integration enables workload orchestration, workflow automation, and real-time telemetry across your Arista estate. Available now at iptrading.com.au — competitive prices and local support.

FAQs

Q: What makes the Arista 7130LS different from a standard data centre switch?
A: Unlike conventional packet switches, the 7130LS operates at Layer 1+ — delivering deterministic 5-nanosecond port-to-port switching with no buffering, no queuing, and virtually undetectable jitter. The onboard Xilinx UltraScale+ VU7P-2 FPGA adds programmable compute directly in the network path, enabling custom application logic such as ultra-low latency multiplexing and sub-nanosecond timestamping that no standard switch can provide.

Q: What use cases is the DCS-7130-96LS-F designed for?
A: The 7130LS is purpose-built for latency-critical applications including high-frequency trading (HFT), financial market data distribution, co-location environments, precision timestamping for compliance, and any scenario where deterministic, sub-microsecond switching is a business requirement.

Q: Can I develop custom FPGA applications on this platform?
A: Yes. Arista provides unrestricted access to the onboard VU7P-2 FPGA along with FPGA Development Kits (FDK) and IP cores, enabling custom or third-party application development. The built-in application framework simplifies deployment of both Arista network applications (MetaMux, MetaWatch) and bespoke logic.

Q: Does this switch require a separate management server?
A: No. The DCS-7130-96LS-F includes an integrated x8664 server running Arista EOS, eliminating the need for external management hardware. CloudVision can also be leveraged for centralised orchestration, automation, and telemetry across your Arista network.

Q: What airflow direction does the DCS-7130-96LS-F support?
A: This model features front-to-rear airflow (port-side intake), suited to standard hot-aisle/cold-aisle data centre rack deployments. The '-F' suffix in the SKU denotes this airflow direction.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista DCS-7130-96LS-F in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller offering the Arista 7130LS Series with competitive pricing and local support. Contact our team for a quote, lead time confirmation, or guidance on compatibility with your existing Arista infrastructure.
