Buy DCS-7170

The Arista DCS-7170 series is a range of high-performance data centre switches designed specifically for modern data centre environments with demanding requirements for throughput, latency and scalability. Organisations that rely on a reliable, high-performance network infrastructure will find the DCS-7170 platform to be a tried-and-tested solution for demanding workloads in cloud, enterprise and high-performance environments.

The Arista 7170 series comprises various models that differ in terms of port density, speed and deployment scenarios. Typical configurations include models with 100GbE and 400GbE interfaces, which can be deployed as both leaf and spine Switches in modern leaf-spine architectures. The platform’s flexibility enables its use in a wide variety of network topologies – from traditional data centre designs to highly scalable cloud networks.

A key advantage of the DCS-7170 switches lies in their programmable forwarding pipeline, which is based on a flexible chip architecture. This enables deep packet inspection, telemetry and network-based security functions to be implemented directly at switch level. The Arista EOS operating system also provides a unified, automation-friendly platform with comprehensive API support that integrates seamlessly into existing network automation workflows and orchestration tools.

For organisations requiring high-performance switching with low latency – such as those in the financial services sector, high-performance computing or data-intensive AI workloads – the 7170 Series provides a future-proof foundation. Support for the latest standards, such as BGP EVPN and VXLAN, ensures maximum interoperability and scalability.

Refurbished Arista DCS-7170 switches represent a cost-effective alternative to new equipment. Professionally refurbished devices undergo extensive testing and offer the same performance at significantly reduced acquisition costs – ideal for businesses looking to expand their data centre infrastructure cost-effectively or set up redundant systems.

Choose the Arista DCS-7170 platform and invest in a networking solution that grows with your needs. Whether you choose new equipment or certified refurbished hardware, the 7170 series ensures you have a future-proof, high-performance and reliable switching infrastructure for your data centre.
