Product Description
The RUCKUS R550 access point (AP) with the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax) technology delivers the ideal
combination of increased capacity, improved coverage and affordability in dense environments. The
R550 is our mid- range dual-band, dual-concurrent AP that supports four spatial streams (2x2:2 in
2.4GHz/5GHz). The R550 supports peak data rates of up to 1774 Mbps and efficiently manages up
to 512 clients connections.
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.
The R550 is packed with ruckus patented technologies in addition to Wi-Fi 6 features such as OFDMA,
MU-MIMO and TWT. The R550 is ideal for medium-density deployments such a, K-12 classrooms,
residence halls, hallways and office spaces.
The R550 Wi-Fi 6 AP incorporates patented technologies found only in the RUCKUS Wi-Fi portfolio.
· BeamFlex®+ Antennas: Extended coverage and optimized throughput with patented multi-
directional antennas and radio patterns
· ChannelFly: Improved throughput with dynamically changing the channels to use least congested
channel
Whether you are deploying ten or ten thousand APs, the R550 is also easy to manage through
RUCKUS' cloud, physical, virtual and controllerless management options.
