Ruckus Networks Ruckus ICX 8100 24-Port 10/100/1000 + 4 x 10G SFP+ | Enterprise Switch

Build a stronger access layer without consuming extra rack space. The RUCKUS ICX 8100 combines 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports with 4 x 10 GbE SFP+ uplink ports in a 1RU chassis, giving network teams a practical balance of endpoint density and uplink headroom. It is well suited to environments where access traffic is growing and the uplink path needs to keep pace. This switch is a strong fit for enterprise closets, branch offices, and distributed sites that need more than basic edge connectivity. The 10 GbE SFP+ uplinks help reduce bottlenecks when multiple users, devices, or downstream switches converge on the same aggregation point. In a compact rack footprint, the ICX 8100 supports cleaner cabling, simpler rack planning, and a more disciplined upgrade path than lower-tier access switches. For organizations standardizing on Ruckus switching, this model offers a clear step up in uplink capacity while preserving familiar access-layer economics. It is the kind of hardware that earns its place in production by handling today’s endpoints and leaving room for tomorrow’s traffic.
