Ruckus H550 Wi-Fi Access Point

Overview:

How many devices can you connect in a single room? It sounds like the start of a riddle. But if you operate a hotel, apartment building, or other multi dwelling unit (MDU) structure, your answer can have a big impact on your bottom line.

The RUCKUS H550 wall-mounted access point, IoT gateway and Ethernet switch makes it easy to support the most demanding in-room connectivity requirements. It starts with RUCKUS patented Wi-Fi optimization intelligence to deliver the industry’s highest-performing wireless connectivity. Combine that with four-ports of Gigabit Ethernet to connect multiple in-room wired devices, without extra cabling and add supports for Zigbee® and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE), as well as other protocols via optional USB modules. Put it all in a sleek, low-profile design that can be discretely installed over a standard electrical outlet.

The H550 is a perfect choice for delivering converged services in hospitality and residential locations such as hotel guest rooms, student residence halls, apartments, and other MDU structures. It can connect wired network devices such as IPTV set-top boxes, IP phones, or networked minibars, while simultaneously providing dual-band Wi-Fi 6 coverage and Zigbee® and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE). This enables The H550 to support a diverse range of IoT endpoints, minimizing the need for stand-alone IoT networks and simplifying the deployment of IoT solutions.

A PoE port and pass-through features can connect and power devices directly from the wall switch. And, an included cable channel can connect even legacy devices, like digital phones that require native access to PBX systems. All of these in-room services can coexist within the same function box, dramatically reducing cabling, installation time, and construction costs.

The H550 wall-mounted Wi-Fi 6 AP incorporates patented technologies found only in the Ruckus Wi-Fi portfolio:

• Extended coverage with patented BeamFlex®+ utilizing multi-directional antenna patterns
• Improve throughput with ChannelFly, which dynamically finds less congested Wi-Fi channels to use
• Maximize the reliability and performance of video and IP-based voice over Wi-Fi networks with the SmartCast™ traffic prioritization engine

With Multi-User connectivity the H550 can simultaneously transmit and receive from/to multiple Wi-Fi 6 clients, improving network RF efficiancy and overall performance, even for non-Wi-Fi 6 clients. The H550 also features a USB port to support future add-on radio modules, easy-to – deploy mesh networking capabilities and support for up to 100 clients per room. Whether you’re deploying ten or ten thousand APs, the H550 is also easy to manage through Ruckus’ controller-less, appliance, virtual, and cloud management options
