Every WhaleyComm unit is professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and certified by our in-house engineers — the same standard trusted by 5,000+ organisations across 25 years. Not a refurb marketplace. A certified lifecycle partner.
Tested to factory specification. Backed by 25 years of enterprise trust.
The Arista DCS-7050T-36-R is a top-of-rack (ToR) switch from the proven Arista 7050 series, engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern enterprise and data center networks. With 32 RJ45 copper ports supporting both 1GbE and 10GBASE-T connectivity alongside 4 SFP+ uplink ports, this switch offers exceptional flexibility for connecting servers, storage, and upstream aggregation devices without requiring expensive optical cabling on every endpoint.The 7050 series is built on Arista's EOS (Extensible Operating System), a single consistent network operating system renowned for its programmability, stability, and rich feature set. EOS enables seamless integration with automation frameworks, monitoring tools, and orchestration platforms, making it a preferred choice for DevOps-oriented IT teams and network engineers alike.
The "-R" designation indicates rear-to-front airflow, supporting hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center cooling architectures. This makes the DCS-7050T-36-R an ideal choice for environments where structured airflow management is a priority.
Available in New Open Box condition, this unit offers the performance and reliability of new hardware at a reduced price point — packaging has been opened but the unit has not been deployed. This is an excellent opportunity for organizations looking to expand or refresh their network infrastructure while managing capital expenditure.
Whether deploying a new server rack, upgrading existing 1GbE infrastructure to 10GbE copper, or building out a cost-efficient high-performance leaf layer, the Arista DCS-7050T-36-R delivers enterprise-grade capability backed by WhaleyComm's commitment to quality sourcing.

Ideal Use Cases
Top-of-Rack Server Connectivity
Deploy the DCS-7050T-36-R as a ToR switch to connect up to 32 servers via cost-effective copper 10GBASE-T cabling. This eliminates the need for SFP+ DAC or optical transceivers at the server edge, reducing infrastructure costs.
Data Center Leaf Layer Expansion
Use the 4x SFP+ uplinks to connect the 7050T-36-R as a leaf node within a spine-leaf data center fabric. Its Arista EOS foundation ensures seamless compatibility with existing Arista infrastructure and automation toolsets.
Enterprise Campus or Lab Network Upgrade
Transition from 1GbE to 10GbE across workstations, servers, or lab equipment using existing Cat6A copper cabling infrastructure. The dual-speed RJ45 ports allow a phased migration without forklift upgrades to cabling plant.

The Arista DCS-7050T-36-R runs Arista EOS, ensuring compatibility with the broader Arista 7000 series switching portfolio including 7050, 7060, and 7300 series spine switches in a leaf-spine topology. It supports standard SFP+ optics and DAC cables for uplink connectivity. EOS integrates natively with network automation and orchestration platforms including Ansible, Puppet, and Chef, as well as monitoring tools leveraging OpenConfig and gNMI telemetry. Compatible with standard 10GBASE-T network interface cards (NICs) in servers from major server vendors. Cabling requirements: Cat6A or higher recommended for 10GbE copper operation at full distance. Check current Arista EOS release notes for specific feature and interoperability details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
The "-R" suffix designates rear-to-front airflow, meaning air is drawn in from the port side and exhausted out the rear. This is designed for hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center environments. Non-R variants typically feature front-to-rear (port-side intake) airflow for opposite aisle configurations.
New Open Box means the unit is in new, undeployed condition but the original packaging has been opened. The hardware has not been configured or used in a production environment, offering new-equivalent performance at a reduced cost.
Arista EOS is included with the hardware; however, certain advanced feature sets or support contracts (such as CVP or specific telemetry features) may require additional licensing. We recommend verifying your specific feature requirements with WhaleyComm prior to purchase.
No, SFP+ transceivers or DAC cables are not included with this unit unless explicitly stated in the order. WhaleyComm can assist in sourcing compatible SFP+ optics or direct-attach cables — please contact us for bundling options.
