RUCKUS ICX 7550-24ZP Switch — High-Density Multigigabit PoE++ with 100G Uplinks

1. Product Overview

The RUCKUS ICX 7550-24ZP is a mid-range enterprise-class stackable switch designed to deliver high-performance connectivity and power for modern Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 access points. It features 24 Multigigabit PoE++ ports, including twelve 2.5G and twelve 2.5/5/10G ports, each capable of delivering up to 90W of power. With dual 40/100GbE QSFP28 uplink ports and support for stacking up to 12 units, this switch offers exceptional scalability and future-proofing for demanding network environments.

2. Key Features

• 24 Multigigabit Ethernet ports with IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ (90W per port)
• Dual 40/100GbE QSFP28 uplink/stacking ports
• Up to 1900W total PoE budget with redundant power supplies
• Perpetual PoE and Fast Boot PoE for uninterrupted power delivery
• Advanced Layer 3 routing with BGP, OSPF, VRF, and PIM
• MACsec 256-bit encryption for enhanced security
• Unified management via SmartZone, RUCKUS Cloud, or Unleashed

3. Core Technologies

The ICX 7550-24ZP supports a wide range of industry standards and protocols, including:

• IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++), 802.3bz (Multigigabit), 802.1AE (MACsec)
• IPv4/IPv6 routing with OSPF, BGP, VRRP, PIM, and VRF-lite
• sFlow, SNMPv3, SSH, SCP, TACACS+, RADIUS
• OpenFlow 1.3 for SDN compatibility
• LLDP, QoS, ACLs, and advanced traffic management

4. How It Works

The RUCKUS ICX 7550-24ZP operates as a stackable access or aggregation switch, providing high-speed connectivity and power to connected devices. It uses advanced to handle traffic forwarding and PoE management, while supporting hitless failover and in-service software upgrades (ISSU) for minimal downtime. The switch can be managed centrally via RUCKUS SmartZone or cloud-based platforms, simplifying deployment and ongoing operations.
