About the RUCKUS ICX8100-48PF-X Switch
The RUCKUS ICX8100-48PF-X is an entry-level, fixed-configuration 1RU campus access switch built for organizations that need straightforward gigabit connectivity with integrated Power over Ethernet. It provides 48 × 10/100/1000 Mbps (1GbE) RJ45 access ports, every one PoE+ capable, making it well suited to powering Wi-Fi access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones and IoT endpoints at the network edge.
Power for connected devices comes from a 740W system PoE budget, delivering PoE+ (IEEE 802.3af/at) at up to 30W Class 4 per port. For backhaul, the "-X" variant adds four 10GbE SFP+ uplink ports — instead of the 1GbE SFP uplinks on the base ICX8100-48PF — giving the access layer high-speed connectivity to aggregation or the core. The switch provides Layer 2 access switching for simple, cost-effective deployments.
The ICX8100-48PF-X is managed through RUCKUS One AI-driven cloud management, the SmartZone network controller, or the ICX command-line and web interfaces, so it fits both controller-managed and standalone topologies.
