ENTRY-LEVEL ACCESS SWITCH FAMILY DELIVERS UNPRECEDENTED PERFORMANCE AND FEATURES IN ITS CLASS
The Ruckus® ICX® 7150 family of stackable switches delivers the performance, flexibility, and scalability required for enterprise access deployment, raising the bar with non-blocking performance and up to 8x10 GbE ports for uplinks or stacking. It offers seamless interoperability with Ruckus wireless products to deliver unified wired and wireless network access. In addition, Ruckus Multigigabit Ethernet technology offers bandwidth speeds needed to optimize performance of the latest generation high performance wireless access points and edge devices, over standard Ethernet cables.
The Ruckus ICX 7150 family of switches are available in three formats:
RUCKUS ICX 7150 SWITCHES
The standard Ruckus ICX 7150 switches are available in 24-, and 48-port 10/100/1000 Mbps models with four 1/10 GbE dual-purpose uplink/stacking ports. These switches are available with or without PoE+ power. Silent operation is available for out-of-closet environments.
The Ruckus ICX 7150-48ZP 48-port switch adds higher performance, greater resiliency and increased PoE power. The switch offers Multigigabit technology (IEEE 802.3bz) to match the highest performing 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless access points available, with dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans, and up to 8x10 GbE uplink/stacking ports.
The switch offers 16 Multigigabit (100Mbps/1Gbps/2.5Gbps) ports, each with Power-over-HDBaseT (PoH) up to 90 watts, plus 32 10/100/1000 Mbps ports with PoE+. With a maximum PoE budget of 1480 watts, this switch delivers the power, and performance, to drive PoE+ power to all 48 ports.
RUCKUS ICX 7150 COMPACT SWITCHES
The Ruckus ICX 7150-C12P compact 12-port stackable switch features a fanless design to operate silently in out-of-closet environments such as offices, classrooms, and retail spaces. It offers PoE+ on all 12 ports to drive devices such as wireless APs, VoIP phones, lighting fixtures or surveillance cameras. With 2x1/10 GbE uplink/ stacking ports, the ICX 7150-C12 delivers high performance in a small package.
STACKING ACROSS THE ICX 7150 FAMILY
Ruckus stacking technology2 makes it possible to stack up to twelve Ruckus ICX 7150 switches into a single logical switch. This allows the Ruckus ICX 7150 to deliver a class-leading 480 Gbps of aggregated stacking bandwidth and offer simple and robust expandability for future growth. Stacking is supported across the ICX 7150 family and all ICX 7150 models including the ICX 7150 compact switch and the ICX 7150-48ZP can be mixed within the same stack. This stacked switch has only a single IP address that simplifies management and offers transparent forwarding across up to 600?1 GbE ports or up to 192?2.5 GbE ports, and up to 96?10 GbE ports. When new switches join the stack, they automatically inherit the stack's existing configuration file, enabling a plug-and-play network expansion.
Because the ICX 7150-48ZP switch has twice as many uplink ports, when it is added to a stack of other ICX 7150 switch models, the effective bandwidth of all the switches is doubled. By designing the stack this way, all four of the 10GbE ports on the ICX 7150 switches can be used for stacking (rather than having to split the four ports between stacking and uplinks), and leveraging four of the 10GbE ports on the ICX 7150-48ZP for stacking and the other four 10GbE ports can be used for uplinks.

HIGH PERFORMANCE CORE SWITCHES FOR NEXT GENERATION 100G CAMPUS
New user demands and technology advances are increasingly putting pressure on campus networks requiring them to scale to support more devices and deliver more bandwidth. The rapid growth in wireless traffic, accelerated by the adoption of 802.11ac and 802.11ax Wi-Fi, is propelling the migration from 1GbE to Multi-gigabit at the access and, driving the need for faster networks at the aggregation and core.
Organizations are rapidly migrating applications from private data centers to the cloud requiring always-on, reliable, high-speed connections to the cloud and resulting in reduced data centers size for which most large chassis/routers are overkill and too complex and expensive to deploy.
Traditional enterprise networks were architected to utilize chassis systems to deliver reliable, high-speed, and scalable routing capabilities to the campus. With recent advances in network processors these capabilities can be packaged into a more flexible stackable switch design. This opens the door to new network architectures where the core can be distributed across the campus, deploying ports and switching capacity directly where they are needed.
The Ruckus® ICX® 7850 Switch is designed to meet these new challenges. It delivers nonblocking line-rate performance on all ports concurrently, with a switching capacity up to 6.4 Tbps. It supports the next generation Ethernet speeds with 10/25 Gigabit Ethernet at the aggregation and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet at the core to meet high volume of traffic driving from the edge into the core. It also supports a rich array of routing protocols and delivers a range of high-availability hardware and software features.
Like the rest of the ICX family, the ICX 7850 also offers a range of features designed to simplify network deployment and management such as advanced stacking, and zero touch provisioning.
