High Availability and Flexibility

The Arista 7132LB Series provide enterprise-grade reliability. They enable flexible deployment and continuous operations with system

wide monitoring of both hardware and software components, simple serviceability and provisioning to prevent single points of failure.

Key features include:

• AC and DC power supply options

• Front to Rear cooling with dynamic temperature control.

• Redundant, color coded, field serviceable power and cooling subsystems:

• 1+1 hot-swappable platinum rated power supplies

• N+1 hot-swappable fans

• Live software patching

• Self healing software with Stateful Fault Repair (SFR)

7132LB Series | Platform Overview

Data Sheet

Custom Applications & FPGA Development Kit

FPGA developers can write custom applications for the 7132LB Series with Arista’s FPGA Development Kit (FDK). The FDK includes API

documentation, sample code, and IP cores to streamline development. Arista development toolkits enable complete and unfettered

access to the facilities provided by the in-system FPGAs.

Precision Timing (IEEE 1588v2 and PPS)

To meet the stringent timing and synchronization requirements in financial markets, telecom, and media & entertainment networks,

Arista’s 7132LB delivers high precision in-band time and frequency distribution support via Precision Time Protocol (PTP, IEEE 1588v2)

with optional Pulse-Per-Second (PPS) inputs for added accuracy. Leveraging a high stability on-board oscillator, 7132LBs can achieve

picosecond-level time synchronization.

The 7132LB features two front-panel SMA ports for PPS, one input and one output port. An internal PPS distribution network delivers

PPS signals to the FPGA serving the network application. A single front-panel SMA port can output the internal 10Mhz PPS clock to

downstream systems*.
