Ruckus R350 Indoor Access Point - Unleashed

Smaller sites can place great demands on their wireless infrastructure. Whether they're working from a small office or connecting to a public hotspot, users are often accessing the same high-bandwidth applications and content they would use elsewhere. And they expect a strong, reliable connection.

The RUCKUS® R350 provides consistent, reliable Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless networking at an affordable price. The AP features the patented RUCKUS performance optimization and interference mitigation technologies found in our best-in-class access points, delivering user experiences at long ranges. But it offers it in an ultra-compact form factor that is designed for small for small sites - and at a reasonable price.

Enterprise wireless requirements go beyond Wi-Fi to include BLE, Zigbee, and many other non-Wi-Fi wireless technologies, leading to the creation of network silos. Enterprises need a unified platform to eliminate network silos. The RUCKUS R350 is designed to solve this with a USB port that supports an optional pluggable BLE and Zigbee IoT module.

The R350 is an ideal choice for enterprise and hotspot environments with low network density, including small and medium-sized businesses, retail locations, restaurants, and small offices and branch offices with multiple tenants.

The R350 Wi-Fi 6 AP features patented technologies found only in the RUCKUS Wi-Fi portfolio.

• Extended coverage with BeamFlex using multi-directional antenna patterns.
• Improved throughput with ChannelFly®, which dynamically finds less congested Wi-Fi channels to use.

The R350 offers an ideal combination of features and performance for smaller environments. It also supports up to 256 clients and 16 SSIDs per AP. Whether you deploy ten or ten thousand APs, the R350 is easy to manage through RUCKUS' appliance, virtual, controllerless, and cloud management options.

  Dynamically create a self-forming, self-healing network mesh with RUCKUS' patented SmartMesh technology reduces costly cabling and complex configurations by checking a box.

The Unleashed Access Point does not require a dedicated controller to create and manage a WLAN network. Instead, one of the APs acts as a master, taking on the functions of a controller and managing the other APs as members. The unleashed access points are suitable for smaller WLAN deployments where only a small number of access points are required. Leashed access points, on the other hand, require an external controller, such as a ZoneDirector or a SmartZone, to create and manage a WLAN network. The Leashed APs are suitable for larger WLAN deployments where a large number of APs are required.
