Overview:
High Performance, 802.11ac Wave 2 Mid-range Smart Wi-fi Access Points With Adaptive Antenna Technology
The RUCKUS ZoneFlex R650 delivers high-performance and reliable 802.11ac wireless networking with MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) capability. MU-MIMO helps boost network throughput by serving multiple clients simultaneously and also benefiting non-Wave 2 clients, thus improving overall network performance.
The R650, through its USB port, also enables IoT readiness for technologies like BLE, to help customers take advantage of upcoming IoT technologies.
Each ZoneFlex R650 integrates RUCKUS-patented BeamFlex+, a software-controlled, high gain antennas that continually forms and directs each Wi-Fi packet over the best performing signal path.
Using dual-polarized antennas, the R650 adapts in real time to anticipate hand-held device movement and rotation ensuring consistent performance.
MU-MIMO
MU-MIMO helps Wave 2 and non-Wave 2 clients. The R650 can communicate simultaneously to multiple Wave 2 clients increasing network performance. This frees up airtime for non-Wave 2 clients resulting in enhanced aggregate network throughput.Advanced WLAN Applications
When used with the RUCKUS WLAN controllers, each ZoneFlex R650 supports a wide range of value-added applications such as BYOD/guest onboarding, Dynamic PSK, hotspot authentication, wireless intrusion detection and many more. WLANs can be created and mapped to the same or different APs or VLANs. In a centrally managed configuration, the ZoneFlex R650 works with a wide range of authentication servers including Microsoft's Active Directory, LDAP, and RADIUS.Flexible Deployment Options
R650 offers unprecedented & unmatched flexibility-with the same AP being able to connect to a variety of controllers-ZoneDirector, SmartZone or Cloud. This gives you the ability to buy an AP now, and change your controller later. ZoneFlex R650 can be deployed across any L2/L3 network and can bridge traffic onto the local network, tunnel to a central location using L2TP**, or route between the WAN and NAT'ed private subnets. With the RUCKUS controllers, each ZoneFlex R650 is automatically configured through the network making deployment quick and easy.Complete Local And Cloud Management
Each ZoneFlex R650 can be managed by the ZoneDirector controller or the SmartZone series of on-premise or virtual hosted controllers or through Cloud Wi-Fi.
