Key Features

  • Stacking: Yes
  • Support dense edge deployments with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports
  • Deliver high-power endpoint support using 802.3bt PoE
  • Preserve uplink headroom with 100 Gbps stacking and uplink capability
  • Segment campus traffic using VLAN support
  • Route access-layer traffic with Layer 3 switching support
  • Scale deployment planning with 4 GB RAM and 4 GB flash memory
  • Fit enterprise access closets with a manageable switch design
Keep demanding access layers stable as device counts, power draw, and uplink pressure rise. The Ruckus ICX7550-48ZP combines 48 ports of Gigabit Ethernet access with high-power 802.3bt PoE support and 100 Gbps uplink and stacking capability, giving infrastructure teams room to scale without redesigning the edge. This switch is built for environments where access-layer density matters as much as uptime. The port mix supports modern endpoints that need more than basic PoE, while the 100 Gbps uplink path helps preserve throughput when traffic shifts toward collaboration, wireless, and video workloads. With Layer 3 support and VLAN capability, it fits cleanly into segmented campus designs where policy and performance both matter. For teams standardizing on a durable access platform, the ICX7550-48ZP offers the kind of capacity that reduces refresh pressure and avoids the hidden cost of under-specced switching. It is a strong fit when the network must carry more power, more traffic, and more operational expectations from day one.

Ideal For

  • Campus access switching for high-density user floors

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the ICX7550-48ZP suitable for dense access layers?▾

It combines 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports with 802.3bt PoE and 100 Gbps uplink and stacking capability, which helps support high-density edge deployments without sacrificing headroom.

Does this switch support Layer 3 routing?▾

Yes. The product is specified as Layer 3 managed switching, making it suitable for access-layer routing and segmented campus designs.

Can it support modern PoE devices?▾

Yes. The switch supports 802.3bt PoE, which is designed for higher-power endpoints such as advanced wireless access points and other powered edge devices.

Why choose this model over a lower-cost access switch?▾

This model is built for environments that need more power, more uplink capacity, and more operational headroom. That reduces the risk of early refreshes and access-layer bottlenecks.
