RUCKUS ICX 7550-24P Enterprise Stackable Switch
Product Overview
The RUCKUS ICX 7550-24P is a high-performance, stackable Gigabit
Ethernet switch designed for enterprise access and aggregation
layers. It delivers 24 ports of Gigabit Ethernet with PoE+ support,
offering up to 30W per port and a total PoE budget of 1900W. With
advanced Layer 3 routing, high availability features, and flexible
uplink options, this switch is ideal for modern Wi-Fi deployments, IoT networks, and smart
building applications.
Key Features
- 24 x Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE+ (802.3at)
- Up to 1900W PoE budget with dual power supplies
- Perpetual PoE and Fast Boot PoE for uninterrupted power
- 2 x 40G QSFP+ uplink/stacking ports
- Stackable with up to 12 units (288 ports per stack)
- Advanced Layer 3 routing (BGP, OSPF, VRRP with license)
- MACsec encryption for enhanced security
Core Technologies
The RUCKUS ICX 7550 supports a wide range of enterprise-grade protocols and standards,
including:
- IPv4/IPv6 Routing (RIP, OSPF, BGP)
- MACsec (128/256-bit encryption)
- sFlow for traffic monitoring
- OpenFlow 1.3 for SDN integration
- LLDP, QoS, VRF, and PIM
How It Works
The ICX 7550-24P operates as a standalone or stacked unit, using virtual switching
technology to behave like a single chassis. It supports hitless
failover, in-service software upgrades (ISSU), and redundant power
and cooling. PoE devices remain powered during reboots thanks to
Perpetual PoE technology.
Typical Applications
- Enterprise campus access layer
- Wi-Fi 6/7 access point connectivity
- IoT and smart building deployments
- VoIP and video surveillance systems
- Medium-density aggregation networks
