7130LBR Series Layer 1 Application+ Switch

The Arista 7130LBR Series introduces a fully composable architecture for the next generation of high performance in-network applications. Combining programmable large-scale FPGAs with a full-featured R3 family switch chip, all connected through an ultra-low latency layer 1 crosspoint. With native support for 1:N connectivity and replication, each front-panel lane can be connected to any combination of two FPGAs and the switch chip enabling customers to combine multiple applications and utilise the inherent capabilities of the switching silicon. Featuring dual Virtex UltraScale+ FPGAs, the 7130LBR Series supports two parallel application instances based on Arista's LB Board Standard. Arista applications including MetaMux for low latency multiplexing and MetaWatch for picosecond-level time stamping can be combined with third party applications and custom functionality developed with the EOS FPGA Development Kit (FDK). The 7130LBR Series includes an R3 generation switch element supporting line-rate L2/L3 forwarding and a complete set of advanced routing features. The 7130LBR is available in a space-saving 1RU form factor with 48 x SFP+/SFP28 and 6 x QSFP-DD interfaces (NRZ). Each QSFP-DD interface may be broken out to 2 x 40GbE or 8 x 10/25GbE interfaces, for a total of 96 x 10/25G lanes.
