Due to the changes in power supply compliance requirements within IEC 62368-1 Arista Networks announces the upcoming availability of the 7130LS Series with 500W and 750W power supplies. The 7130LS Series systems meet the new compliance regulations and are being introduced in November 2020.

At the same time this notice announces end of sale of the Layer 1+ switches in the 7130E and 7130EH Series with the 460W AC and DC power supplies within the European Union (EU) and other select regions that require existing products to comply to EN62368-1 (EU).

In all other regions where National Electrotechnical Committees enforce IEC 62368-1 compliance for existing products, the 7130E and 7130EH version 1 will be subject to end of sales. In North America and other regions covered by the UL and CSA standards that permit the continued sales of existing products previously certified as compliant to IEC 60950, the 7130E and 7130EH Series remain available.

The product part numbers covered by this end of sales announcement are listed below in Table 1 and Table 2. The last day to order the affected products is Dec 20th 2020. Customers with active support contracts will continue to receive support from Arista TAC (Technical Assistance Center) as long as the 7130E and 7130EH Series systems remain covered under a support contract and are supported by MOS.

The ongoing product lifecycle of the 7130E and 7130EH Series is not affected and will continue to be supported until further end of sales notices.

Migration Options

Customers affected by the End of Sales announcement are encouraged to migrate to the “v2” 7130L and 7130LB models that leverage power supplies that are compliant to IEC 62368-1, for functionality that is equivalent. As the new power supplies are a different physical form factor, which requires a newer system level design, these are not backward compatible or interchangeable.
