Brocade ICX 7450 48-Port Stackable Switch

This Brocade ICX 7450-48P-STK-E is a new Layer 3 stackable switch built for enterprise Gigabit Ethernet access. It provides 40 PoE+ ports and 8 PoH ports alongside two 40 Gigabit QSFP+ uplinks in a rack-mountable chassis weighing 20.2 units. The platform supports stacking up to 12 switches for a combined 576 1 GbE and 48 1/10 GbE ports.

Suits PoE Access and Stackable Growth

This switch fits networks that need high-density Power over Ethernet for devices like access points and cameras while using existing optical fibre for 40 GbE uplinks. Buyers who require only basic Layer 2 switching or a fixed-configuration unit without stacking should look at other options.

40 PoE+ and 8 PoH Ports Decide Fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the mix of 40 PoE+ and 8 PoH copper ports. If your deployment needs that exact powered-port count and 40 GbE uplink capability, this model matches; otherwise a different port configuration is required.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 48-port ICX 7450 get when it powers 40 PoE+ and 8 PoH devices all day?

The 20.2 kg chassis uses multiple internal fans that ramp speed with temperature; under full 48-port PoE load the unit stays within its rated thermal envelope for continuous rack operation.

Which cables and transceivers must I already have to use the 40 GbE QSFP+ uplinks on this switch?

The two uplink slots accept standard QSFP+ modules — direct-attach copper cables or 40 GbE optics — so have the matching QSFP+ transceivers or DACs ready before installation.

Can the ICX 7450 stack with my older Brocade 1 GbE access switches?

Stacking is limited to ICX 7450 units; up to 12 members form a single 576-port stack, so older Brocade models cannot join the same stack domain.
