It's not just an FPGA, the 2x application bays support each support 48ports of connectivity to anything, at this point it's "just" a 48port FPGA implementing the worlds fastest layer 2+ switch, but it could be anything in there. The arista device only supported 8 ports and the transceiver latencies were terrible.
