The Refurbished Arista DCS-7250QX-64-F is a purpose-built, high-performance data center switch from Arista's 7250QX Series, engineered to support modern spine-leaf and large-scale cloud networking architectures. Featuring 64 QSFP+ ports capable of 40GbE connectivity, this switch is designed to deliver wire-rate, non-blocking throughput — making it an ideal choice for environments demanding consistent, low-latency performance at scale.Powered by Arista's EOS (Extensible Operating System), the DCS-7250QX-64-F offers a single, consistent software environment that supports automation, programmability, and advanced network telemetry. EOS enables seamless integration with orchestration tools and simplifies day-to-day network operations for enterprise IT teams.
The front-to-rear (-F suffix) airflow design supports hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center cooling best practices, helping reduce operational overhead and improve energy efficiency. The modular power supply architecture further supports high-availability configurations.
This Refurbished unit has been inspected and tested to ensure reliable operation, providing organizations a cost-effective path to deploying proven Arista hardware without the premium of new pricing. WhaleyComm's refurbished inventory is ideal for network expansions, lab environments, or budget-conscious enterprise deployments where performance and reliability cannot be compromised.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
The '-F' suffix designates front-to-rear airflow direction, meaning air is drawn in from the front of the chassis and exhausted out the rear. This configuration is standard for hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center cooling setups.
Software licenses are not guaranteed to be included with refurbished hardware. We strongly recommend contacting WhaleyComm directly to clarify licensing status and to ensure your organization has the appropriate Arista EOS entitlements before deployment.
The DCS-7250QX-64-F runs Arista EOS and is designed to integrate with other Arista switching platforms and management tools such as CloudVision. Confirm specific version compatibility and interoperability requirements with your network team or contact WhaleyComm for guidance.
