RUCKUS ICX 7850-32Q 32-Port 40/100G QSFP28 Stackable Core Switch
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
RUCKUS ICX 7850-32Q 32-Port 40/100G QSFP28 Stackable Core Switch (ICX7850-32Q) - Limited Lifetime Local Warranty
100G Campus Core and Aggregation
The RUCKUS ICX 7850-32Q is a stackable RUCKUS ICX 7850 switch with 32 x 40/100 GbE QSFP28 ports, each of which can run natively at 40 or 100 GbE or break out to 4 x 10 GbE or 4 x 25 GbE. Up to 8 of the rightmost QSFP28 ports can be used as stacking ports.
This is the bare switch: RUCKUS ships it with power supplies and fans sold separately — order 2 x RPS19 power supplies and the ICX-FAN12 fans (or choose the -E2 bundle). Transceivers and cables are sold separately.
6.4 Tbps Switching and Stacking up to 12 Units
RUCKUS rates the ICX 7850-32Q at 6.4 Tbps switching capacity and 4 Bpps forwarding, with 0.8 µs average latency and a 32 MB packet buffer. Up to 12 switches can be stacked, with 9.6 Tbps aggregated stacking bandwidth and up to 10 km between stacked switches, and the stack is managed as a single switch.
Layer 3 Routing, Upgradable by Licence
Base software includes IPv4/IPv6 static routes, RIP v1/v2 and ECMP. The ICX7850-PREM-LIC advanced Layer 3 licence adds OSPF v2/v3, BGP4/BGP4+, VRRP v3, PIM, PBR, VRF-lite, MSDP and BGP EVPN VXLAN.
Cloud or On-Premises Management
The RUCKUS data sheet lists RUCKUS One (cloud) and RUCKUS SmartZone (on premises) management for the ICX 7850, alongside the CLI.

Compatibility & Software Support
Management
RUCKUS One (cloud) or RUCKUS SmartZone (on premises), plus the CLI.
Ports & Optics
All 32 QSFP28 ports run at 40 or 100 GbE, or break out to 4 x 10 GbE / 4 x 25 GbE, so the 32Q can aggregate a mix of 10/25/40/100G access switches and servers. Transceivers and DAC/AOC cables are ordered separately; ask us for a compatibility list for your optics.
Power Supplies & Fans
RPS19-E / RPS19-I (650 W AC) and RPS19DC-E / RPS19DC-I (650 W DC) power supplies, and ICX-FAN12-E / ICX-FAN12-I fans; -E is front-to-back, -I is back-to-front airflow. Use matching -E or -I parts throughout one switch.
Licences
ICX7850-PREM-LIC adds advanced Layer 3 (OSPF, BGP, VRRP, PIM, PBR, VRF). MACsec (ICX-MACSEC-LIC) applies to the ICX 7850-48FS only.
