Bandwidth-hungry ultra-high definition video, virtual reality, Internet of Things (IoT), an explosion of new devices and content. With these kinds of demands, organizations in every industry need more from their Wi-Fi. But with hundreds of devices and nonstop wireless noise and interference, busy indoor spaces can make challenging wireless environments.
The dawn of the Wi-Fi 7 era ushers in a new wave of possibilities. With its groundbreaking advancements in speed, capacity, latency, and reliability, Wi-Fi 7 has the potential to transform the way we connect and interact with the digital world.
From seamless streaming of ultra-high-definition content to immersive virtual and augmented reality experiences, Wi-Fi 7 enables applications that were previously unimaginable. Real-time social gaming can reach new heights, allowing for lag-free, competitive multiplayer experiences with unparalleled responsiveness.
The Internet of Things (IoT) also receive a significant boost, as Wi-Fi 7 supports a massive number of connected devices simultaneously, facilitating smart homes, smart cities, and intelligent automation on a grand scale.
Moreover, industries such as hospitality and education can benefit immensely from Wi-Fi 7’ s low latency and high reliability. Other verticals like, MDUs, large public venues and service providers gain greatly from Wi-Fi 7 unprecedented advancements in speed and capacity.
The RUCKUS R770 is a high-end Wi-Fi 7, tri-band concurrent indoor AP that delivers 8 spatial streams (2x2:2 in 2.4GHz, 4x4:4 in 5GHz, 2x2:2 in 6GHz) and supports Wi-Fi 7 features such as, Multi-Link-Operation (MLO), Preamble Puncturing, 4K QAM Modulation and 320MHz channels. It delivers industry-leading performance environments with a combined data rate of 12.22 Gbps. Furthermore, a 10 Gbps Ethernet port eliminates wired backhaul bottleneck for full use of available Wi-Fi capacity.
Wireless requirements within enterprises are expanding beyond Wi-Fi. The R770 has one built-in IoT radio offering onboard BLE or Zigbee capabilities. The R770 is a converged access point that allows customers to seamlessly integrate any new wireless technologies with the USB port.
The R770 addresses the increasing client demands in transit hubs, auditoriums, conference centers, and other high traffic indoor spaces. It is the perfect choice for data-intensive streaming multimedia applications like 4K/8K video transmissions, while supporting latency sensitive voice and data applications with stringent quality-of-service requirements.
The R770, with built-in RUCKUS exclusive technology, dramatically improves network performance through a combination of patented wireless innovations and learning algorithms that includes:
- Airtime Decongestion: Increases average network throughput in heavily congested environments
- Transient Client management: Reduces interference traffic from unconnected Wi-Fi devices
- BeamFlex®+ Adaptive Antennas: Extended coverage range and optimized throughput with patented dynamic multi directional antennas and radio patterns and work with any client.
Whether you are deploying ten or ten thousand APs, the R770 is also easy to manage through RUCKUS multiple management options including cloud based and on premises controllers.
Access Point BeamFlex Antenna Pattern
RUCKUS’ BeamFlex+ adaptive antennas allow the R770 AP to dynamically choose among a host of antenna patterns (over 4,000 possible combinations) in real-time to establish the best possible connection with every device. This leads to:
- Better Wi-Fi coverage
- Reduced RF interference
Traditional omni-directional antennas, found in generic access points, oversaturate the environment by needlessly radiating RF signals in all directions. In contrast, the RUCKUS BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna directs the radio signals per-device on a packet by-packet basis to optimize Wi-Fi coverage and capacity in real-time to support high device density environments. BeamFlex+ operates without the need for device feedback and hence can benefit even devices using legacy standards.
