2 How do you protect and improve the functionality of your critical processes? You have to Respect Layer One - and that s where CABLExpress comes in. We help you implement a cabling infrastructure that provides the quality and performance to make all your technology investments worthwhile. We manufacture high-performance data center cabling infrastructure products, providing structured cabling solutions worldwide for more than three decades. CABLExpress began by offering used replacement parts for mainframes, and we ve continued to expand our expertise into today s data center systems. We want to become your true partner, providing insight, knowledge and assistance in every interaction you have with us. At CABLExpress, we define ourselves on the guarantee that working with us means that your layer one infrastructure will perform to expectations. Our Skinny-Trunk Solution is a high-density, fiber optic product line that helps you maximize business value and prepare for future generations of upgrades. We have a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD) on-site and we re corporate members of BICSI, AFCOM, TIA and the OSFP MSA. Protect your critical assets with the highest quality product, best service, optimum performance and industryleading innovation you can only get from CABLExpress.

4 ARISTA 7500R/7500E/7300X Connectivity Guide CABLExpress 2 Cabling Your Arista Switches The purpose of this connectivity guide is to offer clear options in cabling the Arista 7500E, 7500R, 7300X and 7320X Series modular switches. The MXP ports on the 7500E can operate as standards-based 10G, 40G, or 100G Ethernet. The 7500E has eight other line cards available but this guide will specifically address the MXP line card. There are two options for chassis size: the 7504E (4-slot) and 7508E (8-slot). Arista 7500 E/R The 7500R has three line cards available operating 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G or 100G. There are three options for chassis size: 7504R (4-slot), 7508R (8-slot), 7512R (12-slot), and 7516R (16-slot). The 7300X operates at 1G, 10G and 40G. There are three options for chassis size: 7304X (4-slot), 7308X (8-slot) and 7316X (16-slot). The 7320X operates at 10G, 25G, 50G and 100G. There are two options for chassis size: 7324X (4-slot) and 7328X (8-slot). Ensuring these switches are cabled to run optimally in your enterprise network requires specific light paths and performance levels for connectivity.

(24) 48/72 fiber OM4 MTP to MTP trunk for 40G and 100G Slot #3 with (144) 10G ports Slot #4 with (144) 10G ports Slot #5 with (144) 25G ports Slot #6 with (144) 25G ports Slot #7 with (72) 40G ports Slot #8 with (72) 100G ports (24) 48/72 fiber OM4 MTP to MTP trunk for 10G and 25G This allows switches to be cabled once and then replicated in a Main Distribution Area (MDA), simplifying the cabling process with all numbers on the hardware directly corresponding to the numbers on the patch panel. Any changes can then be made at the MDA, as recommended in the TIA-942 Data Center Standard. Making changes in the passive MDA environment reduces cable management issues, decreases opportunities for patching errors and limits wear and tear on active ports.

The modules fit in our RSD Series 1U, 2U and 4U enclosures and H-Series 1U, 6U, and 10U enclosures. This allows for tapping to be seamlessly integrated into a structured cabling system. Fiber 24 Tx11 Channel map for 24-fiber MXP multi-speed port Fiber 13 Tx0 Available in multi-mode OM4 and singlemode options with either a 50/50 or 70/30 split. MXP IN 100GBE MODE - MTP 24 TO MTP 24 The MXP port in 100GbE mode utilizes a fiber optic assembly with 24-fiber MTP (or MPO) connectors. 20 of the 24 fibers transmit 100GbE across 10 send and 10 receive channels. There must be a cross from transmit to receive in this light path to connect as shown in the diagram to the left.
