Wi-Fi capacity requirements are rapidly rising due to an increase in Wi-Fi connected devices and bandwidth-hungry applications.

The Access Networks A650 access point (AP) with the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax) technology delivers increased capacity, improved coverage and performance in dense environments. The A650 is our mid-range dual-band, dual-concurrent AP that supports six spatial streams (4x4:4 in 5GHz, 2x2:2 in 2.4GHz). The A650 supports peak data rates of up to 2974 Mbps and efficiently manages up to 512 clients connections. Furthermore, 2.5GbE Ethernet ensures the backhaul will not be a bottleneck for full use of available Wi-Fi capacity.

Also, wireless requirements within the modern home are expanding beyond Wi-Fi with BLE, Zigbee and many other non-Wi-Fi wireless technologies resulting in creation of network silos. These environments need a unified platform to eliminate network silos. The Access Networks AP portfolio is equipped to solve these challenges.

The A650 has built-in IoT radios with onboard BLE and Zigbee capabilities. In addition, the A650 is a converged access point that allows customers to seamlessly integrate any new wireless technologies with the pluggable IoT module. The A650 is packed with patented technologies in addition to Wi-Fi 6 features such as OFDMA, MU-MIMO and TWT. The A650 is ideal for medium-density deployments. The A650 Wi-Fi 6 AP incorporates patented technologies found only in the Access Networks and Ruckus Wireless Wi-Fi portfolios.
