Indoor Dual-Band Access Point
The Ruckus R650 is an indoor wireless access point that operates on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. It supports 802.11abgn/ac/ax protocols with 4x4 MU-MIMO and SU-MIMO antenna technology. This unit is built for environments that need high-density client connectivity without a separate hardware controller.
Wired Uplink Constraint
The access point connects to the wired network through a single 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port using Gigabit Ethernet transport protocol. This uplink speed sets the hard ceiling for aggregate wireless throughput leaving the device. Installations where combined client traffic regularly exceeds that rate will see the wired link become the bottleneck.
High-Density Capacity Profile
Four spatial streams on each band provide the headroom to serve many simultaneous users in offices, schools or public venues. The radio hardware handles heavy association loads and concurrent streams comfortably. Deployments requiring multi-gigabit wireless backhaul or aggregated throughput above the 2.5 Gbps uplink will need a different platform.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band for my R650?
The R650 operates on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz simultaneously, so you do not choose one band; devices connect to whichever suits their range and speed needs.
What does the 2.5 Gbps rate mean once the R650 is installed?
It is the wired Ethernet uplink speed, so the access point can pass up to 2.5 Gbps of aggregated wireless traffic to the network backbone.
Which Ethernet standard does the 2.5 Gbps port use and what limits it?
The port follows the Gigabit Ethernet data link protocol, and the 2.5 Gbps ceiling is the maximum throughput that link can sustain.
