Ruckus switch ICX8100-48P 48-portový PoE

The Ruckus ICX8100-48P stands apart from conventional campus switches by combining high-density 48-port PoE+ with 25/100 GbE uplinks and a 660 Gbps switching capacity in a 1U form factor. Built for modern enterprise edge and aggregation, it delivers wire-speed performance, advanced Layer 3 routing, and intelligent stacking up to 12 units, making it a future-ready foundation for Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, IP surveillance, and converged networks.

Highlights

• 48 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 ports with IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ (up to 30W per port)
• 4 x 1/10/25 GbE SFP28 uplinks and 2 x 1/10/25/100 GbE QSFP28 uplinks for high-speed aggregation
• 740W PoE power budget (expandable to 1480W with optional second PSU)
• 660 Gbps switching capacity and 494 Mpps forwarding rate for demanding workloads
• Stacking up to 12 units with 800 Gbps stacking bandwidth for simplified management
• Comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 feature set including OSPF, BGP (license dependent), and 4096 VLANs
• Energy-efficient design with IEEE 802.3az and redundant hot-swappable power supplies

In daily use

Deploy the ICX8100-48P at the access layer to power and connect a dense array of PoE devices—wireless access points, VoIP phones, IP cameras, and IoT sensors—without additional power injectors. Its 25/100G uplinks eliminate bottlenecks when aggregating traffic to the core, while the 32K MAC address table and jumbo frame support ensure smooth handling of large virtualized environments. Network administrators will appreciate the intuitive CLI, Web GUI, and SNMP management, along with Ruckus SmartZone integration for unified control. Stacking multiple switches creates a single logical unit, reducing operational complexity and enabling resilient, scale-out designs.
