Arista's 7130 Connect series of Layer 1+ switches are powerful network devices designed for ultra-low latency and offer a wealth of integrated management features and functionalities.
The Arista 7130 Connect switches forward data between ports in 4 nanoseconds with full signal recovery and regeneration. They are non-blocking, deterministic with virtually undetectable jitter, and do not buffer or queue data.
The art signal integrity circuitry allows for flexible use of SFP/SFP+ including long-range multi-mode (LRM) as well as passive and active direct-attach copper cables.
The 7130 Connect series platform is packet-aware providing comprehensive packet statistics, signal quality monitoring including eye diagrams, and diagnostics. Packet replication provides the ability to sniff packets without affecting the data path.
The Arista's 7130 Connect series Layer 1+ switches can be used in a network as a remotely configurable patch panel, for one-to-many data broadcast, ad-hoc tapping, media conversion, and link monitoring with the same overhead as a meter of fiber and no degeneration of signal quality.
