Core Aggregation Switch

The Brocade ICX 7750-48C is a managed rack-mountable switch built for campus core and aggregation layers. It delivers 48 ports of 10GBase-T copper connectivity alongside six 40 Gigabit QSFP+ uplinks. This combination supports high-bandwidth applications such as HD video and dense BYOD environments.

Enterprise Network Teams

This switch suits organisations moving to 10 and 40 GbE infrastructure who need resilient Layer 3 routing, QoS and high port density in a single chassis. It is not for buyers who require fibre-native 10G ports, PoE support, or a smaller form factor for branch-office deployment.

48-Port 10GBase-T Density

The defining specification is the 48 copper ports operating at 1000 or 10000 Mbps paired with six 40G QSFP+ slots. That port mix determines whether the unit matches your aggregation uplink strategy and copper patching requirements.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the ICX 7750-48C and do I need to buy QSFP+ transceivers separately?

The switch ships with 48 built-in 10GBase-T ports and six empty QSFP+ cages; transceivers and cables for the 40 Gigabit uplinks are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the 48-port 10GBase-T model or a version with fewer copper ports and more QSFP+ slots?

This model provides 48 copper ports at 1000 or 10000 Mbps plus six 40 Gigabit QSFP+ uplinks; other ICX 7750 variants trade copper density for additional fibre slots, so select this SKU when you need maximum 10GBase-T connectivity.

What does the 10GBase-T headline speed deliver once the switch is cabled with Cat6a in a live rack?

Each of the 48 ports negotiates 1000 or 10000 Mbps over standard twisted pair up to 100 metres, while the six QSFP+ cages accept 40 Gigabit optics for aggregation or stacking links.
