Ruckus R730 Indoor Access Point (End of Sale/Life)

Based on the latest 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard, the R730 bridges the performance gap from 'gigabit' Wi-Fi to 'multi-gigabit' Wi-Fi to support the insatiable demand for better and faster Wi-Fi.

The Ruckus R730 is the highest capacity dual-band, dual-stream 802.11ax AP supporting 12 spatial streams (8x8:8 at 5 GHz, 4x4:4 at 2.4 GHz). The R730 with OFDMA and MU-MIMO capabilities efficiently manages more than 1K client connections with increased capacity, enhanced coverage and performance in ultra-high density environments. In addition, 5 Gbps multi-Gigabit Ethernet ports increase backhaul capacity.

Furthermore, the R730 is IoT and LTE ready and, when combined with the Ruckus IoT suite and our CBRS/OpenG modules, supports wireless standards beyond Wi-Fi.

The R730 meets increasing customer demands in transit hubs, auditoriums, stadiums, conference centres and other high-traffic indoor spaces. It is the perfect choice for data-intensive streaming multimedia applications such as 4K video transmissions, while supporting latency-sensitive voice and data applications with high quality of service requirements.

Combined with the Ruckus Ultra-High-Density Technology Suite, found only in the Ruckus Wi-Fi portfolio, the R730 dramatically improves network performance through a combination of patented wireless innovations and learning algorithms:

• Airtime Decongestion: Increases average network throughput in highly congested environments
• Transient Client Management: Reduces interference traffic from disconnected Wi-Fi devices
• BeamFlex+ antennas: Extended coverage and optimised throughput with patented multi-directional antennas and radio patterns

Whether you deploy ten or ten thousand APs, the R730 is also easy to manage through the Ruckus appliance and virtual management options.
