Arista DCS-7060DX4-32-F 7060X4 32x 400GbE QSFP-DD + 2x SFP+ Switch — Front-to-Rear Airflow, Refurbished
Warranty: Lifetime
QSFP-DD, not OSFP — the 7060X4 for fabrics standardized on QSFP-DD optics and DACs
Arista DCS-7060DX4-32-F — 7060X4 series, 32x 400GbE QSFP-DD + 2x SFP+, 1RU, front-to-rear air, 2x AC
→ Front-to-rear only. Arista builds the 7060DX4-32 with front-to-rear airflow and offers no reversible option. Make sure the port side faces your cold aisle before you rack it.
Part Number: DCS-7060DX4-32-F
Series: Arista 7060X4
Description: Arista 7060X4, 32x 400GbE QSFP-DD switch, front-to-rear air, 2x AC
The DCS-7060DX4-32-F puts 32 ports of 400GbE in one rack unit, plus 2 SFP+ ports. Each 400G port can also run as 2x 200G or 4x 100G with breakout cables or optics, so a common use is aggregating 100G leaf switches into a 400G spine.
The 7060DX4-32 and 7060PX4-32 are the same switch with different port cages. This is the QSFP-DD model, so order QSFP-DD optics and cables; OSFP parts will not fit.

Note on Throughput: 12.8 Tbps or 25.6 Tbps?
Arista's datasheet uses both numbers. 32 ports x 400G is 12.8 Tbps in one direction and 25.6 Tbps counting both directions. The switch forwards at line rate on every port either way.
Note on Licensing
EOS feature licenses are sold separately from the hardware. For this switch Arista lists Group 3 licenses: LIC-FIX-3-E for enhanced Layer 3 (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, PIM, NAT), LIC-FIX-3-V for VXLAN and VM Tracer, and LIC-FIX-3-Z for monitoring and automation (ZTP, LANZ, API). Tell us which features you plan to run before you order.
Good to Know
- QSFP-DD vs OSFP. The 7060PX4-32 is the OSFP twin of this switch. Count your cages and optics before ordering; the two port types do not interchange.
- No reverse-airflow version. Arista lists the 7060DX4-32 as front-to-rear only. Arista color-codes its fan and PSU modules by airflow direction.
- Use Arista-coded optics. Arista switches can reject transceivers that are not coded for Arista. Use Arista or Arista-compatible QSFP-DD optics and DACs.
- Power planning. Typical draw is 388W but maximum is 989W with high-power optics. Size the PDU for the optics you will run, not the idle figure.
- The 2 SFP+ ports run 1G or 10G. They are not 25G ports.
Quick Checklist — Is This the Right Switch?
You need 32 ports of 400G (or up to 128 ports of 100G with breakouts) in 1RU. Your optics and cables are QSFP-DD. The port side faces your cold aisle (front-to-rear). You run Arista EOS, or are matching an existing Arista fabric.
