Infrastructure architect is some one, who is *more than* a jack of all trades. One who knows internals of networking, operating systems, dbms, scalability, etc, and one who can localize problems that span across silos (imagine a dba blaming sysadmin, who in turn blames the networking team, etc). In any trade, all varieties exist: from mediocre to experts. It is rather pointless to talk about extremes, but what is required of an infrastructure architect is important.
