RUCKUS ICX 8200-48PF2-E2 Stackable Access Switch

1. Product Overview

The RUCKUS ICX 8200-48PF2-E2 is a high-performance, enterprise-class stackable access switch designed for modern campus and IoT deployments. It delivers robust Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, high-density Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, and future-ready scalability with 25GbE uplinks. This switch is ideal for organizations requiring reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity for wireless access points, IP phones, and other powered devices.

2. Key Characteristics

• 48× 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 PoE+ ports
• 4× 1/10/25 GbE SFP28 uplink/stacking ports
• Dual hot-swappable power supplies and fans
• 1440W total PoE budget (with two PSUs)
• Support for advanced Layer 3 routing (with license)
• VXLAN support for network segmentation
• Stackable up to 12 units with 10km distance

3. Technology

The ICX 8200-48PF2-E2 supports a wide range of technologies including:

• IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3bt PoE++
• VXLAN for overlay networking
