Ruckus Switch ICX7450-24P 24 porte PoE

The RUCKUS ICX7450-24P stands apart from typical access switches by pairing enterprise-grade Layer 3 intelligence with a high-density PoE+ budget of 370 W, making it a compelling choice for converged networks that must power dozens of IP phones, cameras, and wireless access points without external midspans. Its 320 Gbps switching capacity and 238 Mpps forwarding rate ensure wire-speed performance across all 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, while the dual 10 GbE SFP+ uplinks provide ample bandwidth for uplink aggregation or stacking. With support for up to 12 units in a single stack and 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth, this switch scales elegantly from a wiring closet to a campus distribution layer.

Highlights

• 24 x 10/100/1000Base-T PoE+ ports with IEEE 802.3af/at support and 370 W total power budget
• 2 x 1/10 GbE SFP/SFP+ fixed uplink ports for high-speed connectivity
• Optional expansion module slot for 2x40GbE QSFP+ or 4x10GbE SFP+ modules
• Layer 2 switching with optional Layer 3 routing via license (RIP, OSPF, BGP, VRRP, PIM)
• Up to 12-unit stacking with 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth and distributed forwarding
• Dual-core 1.2 GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM, and 2 GB flash for robust control plane performance
• Hot-swappable redundant power supplies and fans for high availability

In daily use

Deploying the ICX7450-24P is straightforward: the 1U rack-mountable chassis fits standard 19-inch racks, and the intuitive CLI or web GUI simplifies initial configuration. In a typical office, the switch can power and connect 24 PoE+ devices simultaneously, with each port delivering up to 30 W. The advanced feature set—including ACLs, 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, and sFlow—provides the security and visibility needed for modern network policies. For larger deployments, stacking up to 12 units creates a single logical switch with unified management, reducing operational complexity. The hot-swappable power supplies and fans allow maintenance without downtime, a critical advantage in 24/7 environments.
