HIGH PERFORMANCE MULTIGIGABIT ACCESS AND AGGREGATION SWITCHES WITH 100GBE SUPPORT
Enterprise networks are no longer confined to providing simple VoIP phone connectivity and access to email and the internet. Today, seamless mobility, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), social media, web based video conferencing, cloud based SaaS applications and Big Data analytics are all contributing to an environment that demands greater performance and flexibility from the wired and wireless network.
Furthermore, with the rapid adoption of 802.11ac Wave 2 Wi-Fi access points, as well as emerging new Wi-Fi standards, can generate multiple gigabits per second of wireless traffic. As mobile devices usage grows exponentially, they push an everincreasing volume of traffic through the wired edge and new high-performance access points draw more PoE power from edge switches. The wired edge is gradually morphing into a wireless traffic aggregation layer requiring higher performance, availability, and more advanced features.
The Ruckus® ICX® 7650 Switch is designed to meet the new challenges of the multigigabit wireless era. It delivers non-blocking performance, high availability, and scalability with Multigigabit Ethernet access, high PoE output as well as 10 Gigabit Ethernet Aggregation and 40G/100G uplink options.

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.

The RUCKUS ICX 8200 Switch series is purposely designed to handle next generation wireless first and IoT campus networks. These intelligent, scalable edge switches deliver enterprise-class functionality at an affordable price without compromising performance and reliability.

The RUCKUS ICX 8200 raises the bar with up to 8? 25 GbE ports for uplinks or stacking, PoE++ (802.3bt), VXLAN, advanced L2/L3 features and market-leading stacking density with up to 12 switches per stack. In addition, the RUCKUS ICX 8200 combines enterprise-class features, manageability, performance, and reliability with the flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and "pay as you grow" scalability of stackable solution.

ENTERPRISE STACKABLE SWITCH DELIVERS PREMIUM CAPABILITIES AND ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY

The Ruckus® ICX® 7450 switch delivers the performance, flexibility, and scalability required for enterprise Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) access deployment. It offers market-leading stacking density with up to 12 switches (576x 1 GbE and 144x 1/10 GbE ports) per stack and combines chassis-level performance with "pay as you grow" scalability of a stackable solution. The mid-market stackable switch is one of the first in its class to offer 40 GbE uplinks, enabling enterprises to dramatically increase their network capacity while using their existing optical wire infrastructure. In addition, the Ruckus ICX 7450 is the industry's first stackable switching solution to leverage the advantages of site-to-site IPsec VPN security to ensure end-to-end data integrity without the need for dedicated encryption appliances.
The modular design of the switch provides three slots for scaling up to 12 1/10 GbE SFP/SFP+ ports, 12 10GBASE-T ports, or up to three 40 GbE QSFP+ ports for uplink or stacking. Organizations can initially deploy 1 GbE or 10 GbE uplink ports and easily upgrade to 40 GbE ports on-demand with a new, high-speed module. As a result, Ruckus ICX 7450 delivers high performance across all ports for flawless support of latency-sensitive applications.
System-level high-availability features, such as dual hot-swappable, load-sharing, and redundant power supplies, and hot-swappable fan trays offer another level of availability for the campus wiring closet, all in a 1 RU form factor.
The switch is an ideal network solution for campus network 1 GbE access or small aggregation deployment with 10 GbE or 40 GbE uplinks to the core. The switch is also suitable for a data center Top-of-Rack (ToR) solution, providing a mix of 1 GbE and 10 GbE server connectivity ports with 10 GbE or 40 GbE uplinks to the data center aggregation or core.
Deployed as a standalone switch, a stack, or a network fabric, organizations reap the benefits of a flexible platform and the assurance that their investments are protected.
FULL POWER SUPPORT FOR NEXT-GENERATION EDGE DEVICES

The Ruckus ICX 7450 can deliver both power and data across network connections, providing a single-cable solution for the latest edge devices. In addition to supporting the Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) standards, the switch also supports Power over HDBaseT (PoH) and IEEE 802.3bt ready ports. This high power standard delivers up to 90 watts per port through a standard Ethernet cable, simplifying the wiring of next-generation Ethernet-connected devices such as large HD displays, video surveillance equipment, and VDI thin terminals. The PoE/PoE+ and PoH capabilities reduce the number of required power receptacles and power adapters while increasing reliability and wiring flexibility. With a 1,500-watt PoE budget per switch (with two power supplies), the Ruckus ICX 7450 24- and 48-port PoE models can supply up to Class 4 PoE+ power (30 watts) to every port and PoH power (90 watts) on eight dedicated ports.
