The Arista Cognitive Campus CCS-720 series switches (including 720XP and 720D sub-series) are designed for campus user workloads, delivering wire-speed connectivity and power management, monitored by Arista Cognitive Campus Services. They offer a variety of connection options for desktops, PoE appliances, and IoT devices, supporting managed 802.3af/at/bt power.
