Today’s enterprise network aggregation layers are quickly moving to 10, 40 and 100 Gbps speeds as organization rapidly deploy latest generation wireless APs and applications such as 4K video, and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), which drive the need for resilient, high-bandwidth aggregation switches.
To meet these challenges, RUCKUS campus network solutions provide better performance, port density, reliability, security, Quality of Service (QoS), and lower TCO.
Find the right switch for your network. ICX switches work seamlessly with RUCKUS Wi-Fi access points and RUCKUS SmartZone network controllers to deliver the highest performance and most cost-effective solutions on the market today.
The 100G Network
Switching to a New Era: Why Enterprise Networks Are Moving Toward 100GbE
Scaling out the network
Re-architecting enterprise networks with high-performance stackable switches.
IT managers overseeing networks at smaller organizations, need solutions that simplify and automate the deployment and management of their networks. These organizations are better served by network products that can be operated without relying on costly network experts.
For the first time in the industry, Ruckus is enabling IT to deploy a single network element, the network controller, to simultaneously and directly control and manage both wired and wireless networks. IT no longer needs to deploy a
separate, stand-alone network management system to manage their switches and access points. Simple.
Re-Architecting Enterprise Networks With High-performance Stackable Switches
In recent years the evolution of packet processor and CPU technology, the heart of an Ethernet
switch, has allowed unprecedented levels of performance and functionality to be incorporated
into fixed form factor (FFF) switches which were previously only available to much larger and
more costly chassis-based systems. This situation was highlighted by Gartner analyst Andrew
Lerner in his blog post on the topic of fixed form factor switching in the data center, which applies
equally well to campus edge networks, concludes “the emergence of high-density fixed form factor
switches can reduce or eliminate the need for costlier, oversized chassis-based switches in the data
center. The move toward FFF switches will help network managers deliver higher-performance
networks and reduce footprint, power, cooling and TCO.”
Ruckus ICX Switches Take Stacking to The Next Level
Network architects are often confronted with competing objectives when designing new campus networks: maximize scalability, and
upgradability while keeping management simple. A stack of fixed form factor switches, offers the ease of management of a chassis
with vastly superior flexibility and cost effectiveness. Stacking has become the de-facto standard architecture at the campus edge,
replacing modular chassis switches. Ruckus ICX fixed form factor switches go beyond traditional stacking to offer capabilities that
take flexibility, ease of management and cost effectiveness to the next level.
Digital lifestyles sustained through mobile devices and applications,
allow everyone to be more connected and productive, but
concurrently intensify demands on operators, service providers and
enterprises to improve network performance.
