Arista CCS-720DP Series – 24/48-Port SFP/SFP+ PoE+ L3 Access Switches with 4×10G Uplinks and Advanced EOS Features

The Arista CCS‑720DP Series features two enterprise-class Layer 3 switch models: CCS‑720DP‑24S‑2F and CCS‑720DP‑48S‑2F, purpose-built for access, aggregation, and edge deployments across campus and data centre networks. The 24S model includes 24 × 1/10G SFP/SFP+ ports, while the 48S offers 48 × 1/10G SFP/SFP+ ports, both with 4 × 10G SFP+ uplinks to support flexible, high-bandwidth connectivity. These models deliver high port density in a compact 1U form factor, enabling efficient use of rack space in scalable environments.

These switches combine PoE+ capability with wire-speed forwarding, advanced telemetry, and Layer 3 routing, powered by Arista EOS. Compact 1U form factor, redundant power supplies, and hot-swappable fans ensure operational reliability, making the CCS‑720DP series ideal for high-density, automation-driven enterprise networks.

ADVANCED FEATURES

LAYER 3 ENTERPRISE ROUTING AND SERVICES

The Arista CCS-720DP Series supports advanced Layer 3 routing capabilities including OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, and VRRP, enabling dynamic and scalable network topologies. Policy-based routing, unicast/multicast routing, and access control integration ensure the switch handles complex enterprise or data centre requirements with ease.

HIGH AVAILABILITY AND NETWORK RESILIENCE

Designed for mission-critical environments, these switches offer hot-swappable dual redundant power supplies and fans, hitless software upgrades, and MLAG (Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation). Advanced protocols like 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree and 802.3ad LACP enable fast recovery and minimise downtime in redundant deployments.

PROGRAMMABILITY AND AUTOMATION WITH EOS

Built on Arista’s award-winning Extensible Operating System (EOS), the CCS-720DP switches support real-time scripting, API integration, event handling, and software-defined automation using CLI, JSON-RPC, and Python. This allows seamless orchestration within DevOps and NetOps environments.

ENHANCED TELEMETRY AND VISIBILITY

Advanced telemetry tools like LANZ (Latency Analyzer), sFlow, and eAPI offer deep visibility into traffic flows and network health. With real-time analytics and congestion monitoring, administrators can proactively optimise performance and troubleshoot issues.

ADVANCED SECURITY AND CONTROL

Support for 802.1X, dynamic ACLs, RADIUS/TACACS+, and role-based access control ensures enterprise-grade security. MACsec encryption and control plane protection features add an additional layer of defence against internal and external threats.

SCALABLE FABRIC INTEGRATION

Ideal for leaf-spine architectures, the CCS-720DP series supports VXLAN for Layer 2/3 overlays, and EVPN for modern data centre interconnects. This makes the switch suitable for multi-tenant or hybrid cloud deployments with high scalability needs.

ENERGY-EFFICIENT DESIGN

The switches employ variable-speed fans and efficient power supplies that dynamically adjust to system load, reducing power draw and operating costs without sacrificing performance. They are compliant with ENERGY STAR and RoHS environmental standards.

FLEXIBLE MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING

With support for SNMPv1/v2/v3, CLI, HTTP/HTTPS, and Arista CloudVision, these switches can be managed both on-premises and via the cloud. Features like role-based administration, logging, monitoring, and zero-touch provisioning simplify operations at scale.
