RUCKUS R550 Indoor Wi-Fi 6 Access Point (901-R550-WW00)

1. Product Overview

The RUCKUS R550 is a high-performance dual-band indoor Wireless Access Point designed for dense environments such as classrooms, offices, and medium-sized venues. Supporting the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard, this Access Point delivers superior capacity, extended coverage, and advanced IoT readiness with integrated BLE and Zigbee radios. Ideal for medium-density deployments, the R550 supports up to 512 client connections and peak data rates of 1.77 Gbps.

2. Key Characteristics

• Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with 4x4 MU-MIMO and OFDMA
• BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna technology for optimized coverage
• Integrated IoT support: BLE and Zigbee (switchable)
• SmartMesh™ for self-forming, self-healing mesh networks
• Dual Ethernet ports with PoE/PoE+ support
• USB 2.0 port for future wireless expansions

3. Core Technologies

The R550 incorporates RUCKUS-exclusive technologies including:

• BeamFlex+: Real-time adaptive antenna patterns per device
• ChannelFly®: Machine learning-based dynamic channel selection
• SmartCast: QoS and multicast optimization
• SmartRoam: Seamless client roaming

4. Working Principle

The R550 uses BeamFlex+ technology to dynamically select from up to 64 antenna patterns per band, directing RF energy specifically toward each client device on a per-packet basis. This reduces interference and increases signal integrity. ChannelFly continuously scans and switches to the least congested channels, while OFDMA and MU-MIMO efficiently manage multiple client connections simultaneously.

5. Applications

• K-12 and higher education classrooms
• Office spaces and conference rooms
• Residence halls and hospitality environments
• Healthcare facilities and retail spaces
• IoT-ready environments requiring BLE/Zigbee support
