HOW IT DIFFERS: DCS-7050SX3-48YC8 with no airflow suffix is the plain chassis code of the 7050X3 with 48 25GbE SFP ports and 8 100GbE QSFP100 ports. Arista's ordering table describes the codes ending in a hash as having configurable fans and psu, while the -F and -R codes ship with fixed front-to-rear or rear-to-front air and 2xAC. Its sister DCS-7050SX3-48YC8-R is the rear-to-front, dual-AC version, so check the fans and supplies installed in the unit before matching it to a rack.
