Networking cognitive adjacencies revenue mix measures the share of Arista revenue attributed to its Cognitive Adjacencies category, which includes Campus and Routing.

Arista reported 18% of 2025 revenue from Cognitive Adjacencies.

The category sat between Core and Software and Services

Arista's 2025 product-category mix was 65% Core, 18% Cognitive Adjacencies, and 17% Software and Services.

Those three issuer-defined categories sum to 100%, making Cognitive Adjacencies the middle-sized component of the portfolio.

Eighteen percent is not a standardized market-share measure

Cognitive Adjacencies is an Arista taxonomy, not a universal networking-industry segment.

Use Networking Core Revenue Mix and Networking Software and Services Revenue Mix to compare the portfolio on the same issuer basis.

Product-category mix is different from accounting mix

Arista's product-category taxonomy is not the same as its product-versus-service financial-statement classification.

That distinction matters because software economics can still sit inside reported product revenue.
