Review Summary
Entry-Level Access Switch Family Delivers Unprecedented Performance and Features in ITs Class
The Ruckus ICX 7150 family of stackable switches delivers the performance, flexibility and scalability required for enterprise access deployment, raising the bar with non-blocking performance and up to 2x10 GbE ports for uplinks or stacking. It offers seamless interoperability with Ruckus wireless products to deliver unified wired and wireless network access. In addition, Ruckus Multigigabit Ethernet technology offers bandwidth speeds needed to optimize performance of the latest generation high performance wireless access points and edge devices, over standard Ethernet cables.
Stacking Across the ICX 7150 Family
Ruckus stacking technology makes it possible to stack up to twelve Ruckus ICX 7150 switches into a single logical switch. This allows the Ruckus ICX 7150 to deliver a class-leading 480 Gbps of aggregated stacking bandwidth and offer simple and robust expandability for future growth.
Stacking is supported across the ICX 7150 family and all ICX 7150 models can be mixed within the same stack. This stacked switch has only a single IP address that simplifies management. When new switches join the stack, they automatically inherit the stack's existing configuration file, enabling a plug-and-play network expansion.
Enterprise-Class Availability
The Ruckus ICX 7150 Switches help deliver continuous availability to optimize the user experience. Ruckus stacking technology provides high availability by performing real-time state synchronization across the stack and transferring switch management control from the master stack controller to the standby controller if the master stack controller experiences a failure. When hot-inserting or hot-removing a stack member to increase capacity or perform service upgrade, traffic flows will not experience interruption.
In addition to stack-level high availability, Ruckus ICX 7150 Switches also support stack level ISSU (In Service Software Upgrade), a unique capability that allows the user to perform software upgrades to a Ruckus ICX 7150 stack without service interruption.
Silent Operation
The Ruckus ICX 7150-24P switches, feature a fanless design that enables it to operate silently. This Ruckus exclusive feature enables users in hospitality, education, healthcare and retail industries to deploy these switches outside of the wiring closet without disrupting the work environment.
Power Next-Generation Edge Devices
All ICX 7150 family members offer PoE options. The 24-port ICX 7150 switches offer up to 740W of PoE+ power.
The Ruckus ICX 7150 is one of the ICX switch families delivering the enterprise class features for flexibility, scalability and simplified management. Ruckus Campus Fabric technology delivers unmatched flexibility, scalability and simplified management for campus network deployments. Incorporating all of the ICX 7000 switch families with up to 1800 ports in a single logical domain, Campus Fabric allows customers the benefits of a traditional chassis, with the flexibility of stackable switches at a dramatically reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Advanced stacking goes beyond traditional stacking with capabilities that take flexibility, ease of management and cost effectiveness to then next level, including:
Stacking on standard Ethernet ports
Long-distance stacking
No hardware module require for stacking
In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) to minimize downtime
Superior scalability with the industry-leading number of switches per stack
Stacking at the access, aggregation and core layers
Enterprise-Class Availability to improve resiliency and minimize downtime, including:
Hitless stack failover
Hot-insertion/removal of stack members
Redundant power supplies
In Service Software Upgrades for switch stacks
On-boarding and security policies across ICX switches and wireless networks. OpenFlow 1.3 protocol support in hybrid mode allows user to deploy traditional Layer 2/3 forwarding with OpenFlow on the same port for Software Defined Network (SDN) enabled programmatic control of the network.
