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 Refurbished Arista DCS-7280SE-64-F is a purpose-built, fixed-configuration data center Ethernet switch engineered for high-throughput, low-latency workloads. Offering 48x 10GbE SFP+ access ports alongside 4x 40GbE QSFP uplink ports, this switch delivers the port density and uplink bandwidth required for demanding spine-leaf fabric architectures and top-of-rack server connectivity scenarios.Powered by Arista's industry-renowned Extensible Operating System (EOS), the DCS-7280SE-64-F provides a consistent, programmable network operating environment. EOS supports robust automation, streaming telemetry, and deep integration with modern DevOps and network orchestration toolchains, enabling IT teams to simplify operations and accelerate troubleshooting.
The front-to-rear airflow direction (indicated by the "-F" suffix) supports hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center cooling standards, making it straightforward to integrate into structured rack deployments. The switch is built for wire-speed forwarding across all ports, ensuring predictable performance under full traffic load.
Sourced, inspected, and tested by WhaleyComm, this Refurbished unit delivers enterprise-grade reliability at a fraction of the cost of new hardware. It is an ideal choice for organizations looking to expand network capacity, refresh aging infrastructure, or build out secondary or lab environments without compromising on performance or software capability. All Refurbished units from WhaleyComm are functionally verified prior to shipment.

Ideal Use Cases
Top-of-Rack (ToR) Server Connectivity
Deploy the DCS-7280SE-64-F as a top-of-rack switch to provide high-density 10GbE connectivity directly to servers and storage nodes. The 4x 40GbE uplinks allow efficient aggregation back to spine-layer switches in a leaf-spine fabric.
Spine-Leaf Fabric Expansion
Use this switch to scale out an existing leaf-spine data center fabric, adding port capacity without disrupting the current network design. Its consistent EOS software stack ensures seamless integration with other Arista infrastructure already in place.
Network Lab and Development Environments
The cost efficiency of a Refurbished DCS-7280SE-64-F makes it an excellent choice for building out realistic network lab, staging, or pre-production test environments. Teams gain access to full EOS feature parity for automation testing, training, and validation workflows.

✓
The Arista DCS-7280SE-64-F runs Arista EOS, ensuring compatibility with the broader Arista 7280 Series switching portfolio and interoperability within multi-tier leaf-spine architectures. It supports standard 10GbE SFP+ transceivers (SR, LR, DAC, and AOC form factors) as well as 40GbE QSFP transceivers and cables. EOS compatibility extends to Arista CloudVision for centralized management, telemetry, and automation. The switch supports industry-standard protocols including BGP, OSPF, VXLAN, LACP, MSTP, and LLDP, enabling integration into multi-vendor network environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
The "-F" suffix denotes front-to-rear airflow direction, meaning cool air enters from the front of the unit and exhausts out the rear. This configuration is designed to align with standard hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center cooling practices.
Yes. Refurbished Arista hardware runs the same Arista EOS operating system as new units, providing full access to EOS features including automation, streaming telemetry, and CloudVision integration. [Verify current supported EOS version eligibility with Arista.]
The 48x SFP+ ports support 10GbE connections and are primarily used for server or endpoint access-layer connectivity, while the 4x QSFP ports support 40GbE and are intended for high-bandwidth uplinks to aggregation or spine-layer switches.
