Which ICX model has eight integrated QSFP28 ports?

The Ruckus ICX 7850-48F is built for high-capacity core/aggregation roles and ships with 48 × 1/10/25 GbE SFP28 ports plus 8 × 40/100 GbE QSFP28 ports that are permanently integrated on the base chassis. None of the other listed ICX models provides eight onboard QSFP28 interfaces; they offer fewer QSFP28 ports or only QSFP+ (40 GbE) ports. Therefore, ICX7850-48F is the sole model in the options meeting the “eight integrated QSFP28 ports” requirement.

A. ICX7550-48F – Only 2 × 40/100 GbE QSFP28 uplinks; not eight.

C. ICX7650-48F – Provides 2 × 100 GbE QSFP28 and 6 × 40 GbE QSFP+; total QSFP28 count is two.

D. ICX7750-48F – Uses QSFP+ (40 GbE) uplinks; series predates QSFP28, so zero QSFP28 ports.
