Buffer Architecture
Leveraging the advanced memory architecture of the Trident 4 silicon, the Arista 7050X4 series offers a significantly increased shared packet buffer of up to 132 MB (varies slightly by specific derivative switch model). By employing intelligent dynamic thresholds, the switch allocates buffer space intelligently mapped to traffic classes and specific quality of service policies, mitigating packet loss natively.
