Wi-Fi is a critical amenity as users bring more devices into hotel rooms, meeting rooms, and classrooms. However, providing great Wi-Fi performance in every room is cost-prohibitive.
The H320 combines an 802.11ac Wave 2 Wi-Fi access point and wired switch into one wall-mount device. Designed specifically for per-room deployments, the H320 is compact, inconspicuous, secure, and easy to mount to an electrical junction box. Bottom facing Ethernet ports eliminate unsightly cabling and accommodates any furniture placement.
Easily supports converged wired and wireless services with one device, that include VoIP, IPTV, high-speed Internet access and in-room Wi-Fi device connectivity.
This 802.11ac Wave 2 Wi-Fi AP and switch incorporates patented technologies found only in the Ruckus Wi-Fi portfolio.
- Extended coverage with patented BeamFlex+ utilizing multi-directional antenna patterns
- Improved throughput with ChannelFly which dynamically find less congested Wi-Fi channels to use
The H320 supports Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) which increases network throughput by transmitting to multiple clients simultaneously.
Support per-room wired IP devices from TVs to phones with 2 onboard Ethernet ports. Also, with built-in visual troubleshooting tools within Ruckus Wi-Fi controllers, administrators can accelerate resolution of trouble tickets.
Whether organizations are deploying ten or ten thousand APs, the H320 can be deployed as a standalone AP or centrally managed by SmartZone or ZoneDirector management platforms.
Benefits
AFFORDABLE ALL-IN-ONE
Deliver great in-room Wi-Fi and concurrent wired IP connectivity with 802.11ac Wave 2 speed and a built-in 2-port switch.
STUNNING PERFORMANCE
Extends coverage with patented BeamFlex+™ adaptive antenna technology while mitigating interference by utilizing multi-directional antenna patterns.
MULTIPLE MANAGEMENT OPTIONS
Manage the H320 from the cloud, or with on-premises physical/virtual appliances.
AUTOMATE OPTIMAL THROUGHPUT
ChannelFly dynamic channel technology uses machine learning to automatically find the least congested channels. You always get the highest throughput the band can support.
SERVICE MORE DEVICES
Connect more devices simultaneously with two MU-MIMO spatial streams and concurrent dual-band 2.4/5GHz radios while enhancing non-Wave 2 device performance.
SUPPORT MORE SERVICES
Multiple SSIDs and switch ports help support services such as VoIP, IPTV, and high-speed Internet access and in-room device connectivity.
KEEP YOUR SWITCHES AND CABLES
Designed to operate on existing PoE switches and CAT 5e cabling to minimize costs.
MORE THAN WI-FI
Support services beyond Wi-Fi with Cloudpath security and onboarding software, SPoT Wi-Fi locationing engine, and SCI network analytics.
Access Point Antenna Pattern
Ruckus' BeamFlex+ adaptive antennas allow the H320 AP to dynamically choose among a host of antenna patterns 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.
