The RUCKUS ICX 7450 delivers unprecedented scale-out density with enterprise-class availability. With SDN support, a service module for IPsec VPN, and 40 GbE ports for uplinks all in a stackable design, these switches enable services to be added anywhere in the network.

The ICX 7450 is an ideal network solution for campus networks requiring 1 GbE access or small aggregation deployments with upgradeable 1GbE, 10 GbE or 40 GbE uplink modules. The switch also makes a suitable data center Top-of-Rack (ToR) solution, providing a ToR access-layer that can be upgraded to run on 10GbE/40GbE in the future with minimum costs and changes to cabling.

The modular design of the switch enables deployment of additional services such as high-performance IPsec encryption to meet increasing compliance and data security requirements.
