Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of the Arista DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC line card? +
The DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC is a high-density line card engineered for the Arista 7500R Series modular switches. It provides massive throughput and deep buffering capabilities, making it ideal for high-performance cloud data centers, large-scale spine-leaf architectures, and demanding routing environments that require significant scalability and reliable packet processing at scale.
How many ports does the DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC support and what are their speed ratings? +
This line card features 36 ports, each capable of supporting 100GbE connectivity. Utilizing QSFP-100 interfaces, it provides high-density 100G port connectivity, allowing network architects to scale their switching capacity significantly within the modular chassis framework while maintaining low latency and efficient bandwidth utilization for intensive traffic loads.
Is the DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC compatible with existing 7500R series chassis? +
Yes, this line card is specifically designed for integration into the Arista 7500R Series chassis. It shares common architectural benefits with the rest of the R-series family, ensuring seamless hardware compatibility and consistent feature set availability when expanding or upgrading your existing modular switch deployments to support higher port densities.
Does this line card support advanced routing features like MPLS and VXLAN? +
The DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC leverages the powerful R-Series chipset architecture to support advanced L2 and L3 features, including robust VXLAN overlay support and MPLS routing capabilities. These features are essential for modern data center virtualization, network segmentation, and service provider edge deployments where scalable and flexible traffic management is a strict requirement.
What kind of buffering architecture does the DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC utilize? +
This module features a deep-buffer architecture designed to handle bursty traffic patterns and congestion in high-performance networks. By providing a significant amount of packet memory, it effectively manages micro-bursts that would otherwise cause packet loss in standard shallow-buffer switches, ensuring consistent application performance and throughput for bandwidth-hungry enterprise and cloud workloads.
How is the management of the DCS-7500R-36CQ-LC handled within the Arista ecosystem? +
Management is performed via the Arista EOS (Extensible Operating System). Since it is a line card for the 7500R series, it is managed through the central supervisor modules of the chassis. This allows for unified configuration, monitoring, and telemetry across all ports, ensuring operational consistency and simplified management for network administrators.
What are the power requirements and cooling considerations for deploying this module? +
Deployment requires careful consideration of the chassis-wide power budget and airflow capacity. As a high-performance 100G line card, it is engineered to function within the power and thermal specifications of the 7500R modular series. Ensure that your chassis is equipped with the appropriate power supply units and fan modules to maintain optimal operating temperatures under load.
Can I mix this line card with other 7500R series modules in the same chassis? +
Arista 7500R series chassis support a mix of compatible line cards to allow for flexible network design. You can integrate this 36-port 100G module alongside other supported R-series cards, provided you manage the total chassis capacity and power allocation according to Arista’s hardware deployment guidelines for your specific switch model.
