Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The ICX 7750 provides the capabilities of a chassis with the flexibility and cost-effectiveness of a stackable switch. The switch delivers faster network response time via wire-speed, non-blocking performance across all ports to support latency-sensitive applications such as real-time voice or video streaming and Virtual Destop infrastructure. Up to 12 ICX 7750 switches can be stacked together to provide terabytes of aggregated stacking bandwidth with full redundancy, eliminating inter-switch bottlenecks. Industry-leading 10/40 Gbps Ethernet port density and flexibility. Up to 32x40 GbE
