48-port PoE+ stackable switch

The RUCKUS ICX7550-48P-E2 is a managed Layer 3 switch built for networks that need high-density power and uplink flexibility. It suits IT teams deploying wireless access points, IP cameras or VoIP handsets across a campus or building. The stackable design lets multiple units operate as a single logical device.

Dual 40 Gbps QSFP+ uplinks and modular slot

Two 40 Gbps QSFP+ ports handle uplink or stacking duties, while an open module slot accepts additional port modules sold separately. Front-to-back airflow matches standard rack layouts. The bundle ships with three fans and two AC power supplies using C14 inlets, ready for 100–240 VAC sources.

1900 W PoE budget and power inlet options

All 48 RJ45 ports deliver up to 30 W each under 802.3at, with a total PoE budget of 1900 W when both 1200 W supplies run at 180–240 VAC. At 100–180 VAC the supplies drop to 1030 W each, reducing available PoE power. A DC inlet supports 40–60 VDC if your site uses DC distribution. Verify your rack power circuits and module requirements before ordering.

Questions about this item

What uplink speed do the two QSFP+ ports provide and how does that limit stacking bandwidth?

Each QSFP+ port runs at 40 Gbps, so the two ports together deliver up to 80 Gbps of stacking or uplink throughput.

What rack depth and airflow clearance does the chassis require for front-to-back cooling?

The unit uses front-to-back airflow with three included fans; allow at least 45 cm of clear space at the front and rear for proper cooling.

How do I enable the full 30 W per port PoE+ budget across all 48 ports during initial configuration?

Install both 1200 W AC power supplies, then activate the PoE license in the management interface to unlock the 1900 W total PoE budget.
