Ruckus ICX7450-48F 48-Port SFP Fiber Switch | Stackable Modular

Brand:

The Ruckus ICX7450-48F is a high-density fiber Ethernet switch with 48 × 100/1000 Mbps SFP ports, designed for enterprise access and aggregation networks requiring fiber connectivity. Its modular architecture provides three expansion slots supporting additional 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+, 10GBASE-T or 40GbE QSFP+ interfaces. With 336 Gbps switching capacity, 250 Mpps forwarding, stacking for up to 12 switches and 960 Gbps aggregate stack bandwidth, it supports scalable campus and infrastructure deployments.

OVERVIEW

  • The Ruckus ICX7450-48F is a 48-port fiber switch for enterprise access and aggregation, combining high-density SFP connectivity with modular uplink expansion and stackable architecture. Compatibility: 100/1000 Mbps SFP optics plus supported 1/10GbE SFP/SFP+, 10GBASE-T and 40GbE QSFP+ modules. Compare: unlike RJ45 ICX7450 models, the 48F is optimized for fiber access; choose it when copper access ports are not the priority. Need: verify optics, modules and lifecycle before purchase.

USE CASES

  • Fiber-based enterprise access networks - Provides 48 SFP interfaces for high-density fiber connectivity.
