Also, wireless requirements within enterprises are expanding beyond Wi-Fi with BLE, Zigbee and many other non-Wi-Fi wireless technologies resulting in creation of network silos. Enterprises need a unified platform to eliminate network silos. The RUCKUS AP portfolio is equipped to solve these challenges.
The R550 has built-in IoT radios with onboard BLE and Zigbee capabilities. In addition, the R550 is a converged access point that allows customers to seamlessly integrate any new wireless technologies with the pluggable IoT module.
· BeamFlex®+ Antennas: Extended coverage and optimized throughput with patented multidirectional antennas and radio patterns
· ChannelFly®: Improved throughput with dynamically changing the channels to use least congested channel
Features:
Stunning Wi-Fi performance
Mitigate interference and extend coverage with patented BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna technology utilizing several directional antenna patterns.
Serve more devices
Connect more devices simultaneously with four MUMIMO spatial streams and concurrent dual-band 2.4/5GHz radios while enhancing device performance.
Converged Access Point
Allows customers to eliminate siloed networks and unify WiFi and non-WiFi wireless technologies into one single network by using built-in BLE and Zigbee, and also expand to any future wireless technologies through the USB port.
Automate optimal throughput
ChannelFly dynamic channel technology uses machine learning to automatically find the least congested channels. You always get the highest throughput the band can support.
Better mesh networking
Reduce expensive cabling, and complex mesh configurations by checking a box with SmartMesh wireless meshing technology to dynamically create selfforming, self-healing mesh networks.
More Than Wi-Fi
Support services beyond Wi-Fi with Ruckus IoT Suite, Cloudpath® security and onboarding software, SPoT Wi-Fi locationing engine, and RUCKUS analytics.
