Ruijie RG-AP820-I Indoor Wi-Fi 6 AP, 2.976 Gbps, 2.5 G Combo SFP Port

Q1: What is the maximum wireless data rate of the AP820‑L?

A: The RG‑AP820‑L supports up to 2.4 Gbps combined throughput in dual‑band mode (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz), or up to 2.976 Gbps with dual‑5 GHz radios (HE160).

Q2: What Wi‑Fi 6 features does the AP820 support?

A: It supports OFDMA, MU‑MIMO, 1024‑QAM modulation, BSS coloring, and dual‑radio configurations for high capacity and low latency .

Q3: How many spatial streams are available on the AP820?

A: The AP820‑L (dual‑radio) offers four spatial streams—2×2 on each radio. The AP820‑AR (tri‑radio version) supports six spatial streams .

Q4: What security standards are supported?

A: It supports WPA3, 802.1X, PPSK (Private Pre‑Shared Key), voucher/social logins, and WIDS/WIPS when managed with Ruijie controller .

Q5: Does the AP820 support hybrid deployment modes?

A: Yes—it can operate in standalone (Fat), Fit (controller-managed), or Cloud-managed modes, automatically detecting the mode .

Q6: What type of power options are available?

A: The AP supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE and local DC power supply (DC adapter sold separately) .

Q7: Can the AP820 integrate with cloud-based management?

A: Yes—with Ruijie Cloud and WIS (Wireless Intelligent System) for AI-driven optimization, reporting, and management via app or web .

Q8: What is the recommended client capacity per AP?

A: Designed for high-density deployments, it reliably supports up to 64 HD video clients or around 120 general users .

Q9: What kind of uplink interfaces does the AP have?

A: The AP820‑L includes one 1 GbE uplink port plus a 1 Gb/2.5 GbE SFP combo port; higher-end models offer multigigabit uplinks .

Q10: Are external antennas supported?

A: No—the AP features integrated omni‑directional antennas (built‑in, 2 dBi gain for each band) .

Q11: What physical mounting options are supported?

A: It supports ceiling and wall mounting, with an included bracket; also has Kensington lock support .

Q12: Is the AP warranty and service cloud included?

A: It includes a 3‑year hardware warranty and lifetime free Ruijie Cloud service for lifetime AI-driven operations .

Q13: How energy-efficient is the AP820?

A: It incorporates energy-saving technologies (antenna standby, dynamic MIMO, auto power‑save) to reduce footprint .

Q14: Does it support local data forwarding?

A: Yes—supports local forwarding to alleviate traffic bottlenecks through the wireless controller .

Q15: Can I connect the AP to older Wi‑Fi infrastructure?

A: Yes, it's fully backward-compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, and even boosts performance in mixed environments .
