Ruckus R560 Wi-Fi 6E Tri-Band Concurrent Wireless Access Point
By Brian Long
Introduction
The Ruckus R560 is a mid-range Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) access point designed to meet the demands of high-density indoor environments such as transit hubs, auditoriums, and conference centers. With its tri-band concurrent design, the R560 supports six spatial streams—2x2:2 in 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands—achieving a combined data rate of up to 4.7 Gbps. This ensures reliable, high-speed wireless connectivity for a large number of devices, supporting applications like 4K video streaming and latency-sensitive voice and data transmissions.
