Ruckus ICX7850-48C-E2-R5 48-Port 1/10/25G Switch | 100G, Enterprise

Keep critical traffic moving with a switch built for dense campus and aggregation layers. The ICX7850-48C combines 48 RJ45 ports supporting 1/10/25 GbE with 8 QSFP28 uplinks for 40/100 GbE, giving infrastructure teams the port mix needed to connect access layers while preserving headroom for backbone traffic. This platform is suited to environments where copper access remains important but uplink capacity cannot become the bottleneck. The 25 GbE-ready RJ45 ports help extend the life of existing cabling strategies, while the QSFP28 uplinks provide a clear path to higher-speed aggregation and core connectivity. Out-of-band Ethernet adds a separate management path, which is valuable when you need to troubleshoot or recover without depending on the production network. The ICX7850-48C is a strong fit for teams standardizing on higher-density switching without sacrificing operational control. It is the kind of switch chosen when the network must support growth, maintain predictable performance, and justify the investment with fewer refresh cycles and more usable bandwidth per rack unit.
