RUCKUS H550 Wall-Mounted Wi-Fi 6 Access Point with IoT and Switch

1. Product Overview

The RUCKUS H550 (Model: 9U1-H550-XX02) is a high-performance, wall-plate form factor Wireless Access Point designed for dense connectivity environments. This all-in-one solution integrates Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) radios, a 4-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, and dual concurrent IoT support for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Zigbee. It is engineered to deliver reliable in-room coverage and wired connectivity for hospitality, education, and multi-dwelling units (MDUs), making it an ideal Access Point for modern network demands.

2. Key Characteristics

• Wi-Fi 6 2x2:2 dual-band radio with 1.8 Gbps aggregate throughput
• Integrated 4-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with 48V passive PoE output
• Built-in Bluetooth and Zigbee radios for IoT connectivity
• Patented BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna technology
• Support for up to 512 clients per AP
• Wall-mounted design for discreet installation
• Multiple management options: cloud, on-prem, controller-less

3. Core Technologies

The H550 leverages advanced Wireless technologies including:

• BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna system for optimized signal direction
• ChannelFly AI-driven channel selection
• MU-MIMO and OFDMA for multi-user efficiency
• WPA3 security, Dynamic PSK, and Enhanced Open
• SmartMesh for self-healing mesh networking

4. Working Principle

The H550 operates by dynamically steering RF signals using BeamFlex+ antennas on a per-packet basis. It scans the environment for interference and utilizes ChannelFly to select the least congested channels. The integrated switch and IoT radios allow it to serve as a unified connectivity hub, supporting both wired and wireless devices from a single wall-mounted enclosure.
