PSUs besides the default shown. Contact your local Arista representative for more information. For switches that support both forward and reverse airflows, add -RED or -BLUE to the PSU model for the airflow desired.
Page 9
Airflow Orientation:The fans and PSUs determine the direction of airflow through the switch. The color of the visible handles or labels indicates the airflow direction. Note: The figures shown use representative Arista switches to illustrate airflow directions. Refer to the rear panel to determine the airflow for your switch.
Page 10
Figure 2-2: Air Exit Module Orient the switch so that the airflow through the switch is from the cooler to the hotter aisle. Contact your sales representative if the airflow direction is incompatible with the installation site. • Rack Space: Install the switch in a 19" rack or cabinet. The switch height is 1 RU. The accessory kit provides mounting brackets for two-post and four-post racks.
Page 11
Preparation Four-Post Rack (Tool-less) No additional equipment is required. Four-Post Rack (Conventional) • Screws or rack mounting nuts and bolts. • Screwdriver The accessory kit does not include screws for attaching the switch to the equipment rack. When installing the switch into an equipment rack with unthreaded post holes, nuts are also required to secure the switch to the rack posts.

Chapter 4 Cabling the Switch The Cabling the Switch section discusses the following topics: • Grounding the Switch • Connecting Power Cables • AC Power Supplies • DC Power Supplies • Connecting Serial and Management Cables Grounding the Switch After mounting the switch into the rack, connect the switch to the data center ground. Figure 6: Earth Grounding Pad Sockets display the location of the grounding pads located on the left of the rear panel.
Page 15
Connecting Power Cables Power cords are optional and must be ordered separately. You must select an approved power cord that is compliant with local and national electrical codes or order one from Arista for use with the device. Warning: (Canada Only) - CCS-722XPM-48ZY8 and CCS-722XPM-48Y4 Signal Equipment High Leakage Current If used in a Signal Equipment application in Canada, to comply with CSA C22.2 NO.

Chapter 5 Configuring the Switch Arista switches ship from the factory in Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) mode. ZTP configures the switch without user intervention by downloading a startup configuration file or a boot script from a location specified by a DHCP server. To manually configure a switch, ZTP is bypassed. The initial configuration provides one username (admin) that is accessible only through the console port because it has no password.
Page 22
11. When the management port IP address is configured, select this command to access the switch from a host using the address configured in Step 9: ssh admin@192.0.2.8 Refer to the Arista Networks User Manual for complete switch configuration information.
