4-port 10GBASE-T expansion module

The Brocade ICX7400-4X10GC adds four RJ-45 ports that run at 1 or 10 Gbps to a compatible switch. It is built for network administrators who need copper uplinks or server links without changing existing cabling.

Practical limits of 10GBASE-T copper

Each port reaches 10 Gbps over twisted-pair cable, but distance and cable grade restrict the full rate. The interface also draws more power and adds latency compared with fibre-based 10 GigE modules.

Upgrade from 1 GbE copper uplinks

This module replaces four 1 Gbps RJ-45 uplinks when the aggregation layer needs higher throughput. The jump is worth it when existing copper runs support 10GBASE-T and the switch chassis has a free slot.

Questions about this item

Which capacity or version of the ICX7400-4X10GC should I choose for my switch?

This module provides four 10GBase-T RJ-45 ports and is designed for the ICX 7450-24. No other capacity or version is offered for this part number.

What does the 10 Gbps data rate mean once the module is installed in a real machine?

Each of the four RJ-45 ports can run at 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps, giving up to 10 Gbps per port over copper cabling when connected to compatible devices.

What interface standard does this expansion module use and what does it cap in practice?

The module uses a plug-in form factor with 10GBase-T interfaces, capping each port at 10 Gbps over twisted-pair copper up to the cable distance limit.
