Accessories & Optional Modules
- Mounting Brackets: Low-profile flush and surface kits for standard junction boxes.
- Built-in Surge Protection: 6 kV Ethernet line guards protect against spikes.
- PoE Injectors: 60 W midspans for DC-only environments.
- Custom Faceplates: Choose white or black finishes to match aesthetics.
Security & Authentication
- WPA3 Enterprise & Personal: SAE handshake and GCMP-256 encryption prevent dictionary attacks and ensure robust client privacy.
- 802.1X/RADIUS: Dynamic user authentication with per-user VLAN assignment and role-based ACLs.
- PPSK: Private Pre-Shared Key generation for each user/device, isolating credentials without a RADIUS server.
- Guest Portal & VLAN: Customizable captive-portal workflows isolate guest traffic into dedicated VLANs with bandwidth/time quotas.
- Rogue AP Detection: Periodic scans identify unauthorized Wireless Access Points, triggering alerts or automatic containment.
- Encrypted Management: All CLI, SNMPv3, SSH, and HTTPS sessions use industry-standard ciphers to protect control-plane communications.
Installation & Mounting Guidelines
- Wall-Plate Integration: Installs into standard 86 mm electrical boxes; a low-profile faceplate blends with decor.
- Mounting Kits: Includes flush-mount and surface-mount brackets, plus cable-management clips for tidy cabling.
- Cable Entry & Grounding: Gland-sealed Ethernet ports maintain IP41; follow local electrical codes for grounding.
- Placement Best Practices: Mount at 1.5–2 m height for optimal in-room coverage. Avoid placing behind large furniture or near heavy machinery to minimize multipath interference. Leave 20 cm clearance around the AP for adequate airflow.

RF Planning & Antenna Configuration
- Integrated Antennas: Omnidirectional elements tuned for wall-plate deployment, providing uniform coverage in small rooms.
- Channel Bandwidth: Supports 20/40/80/160 MHz channels in 5 GHz; automatic 320 MHz channel selection is not supported on this dual-radio model.
- Transmit Power Control: Auto-adjusts TX power based on real-time noise floor measurements to reduce co-channel interference.
- Heat-Map Simulation: Use Ruijie’s cloud-based planner to model coverage, capacity, and interference, ensuring optimal AP placement before deployment.
Management & Monitoring
- Ruijie Cloud: Zero-touch provisioning, global dashboards, batch firmware upgrades, and AI-driven alerts simplify large-scale rollouts.
- AC Controller: On-premises high-availability AC appliances manage SSID profiles, QoS policies, and user access across multiple sites.
- Standalone GUI/CLI: Quick-start wizards for single-AP setups or small deployments.
- RESTful APIs & SNMPv3: Integrate with third-party NMS and automation platforms for custom monitoring and event handling.
- Real-Time Telemetry: Client counts, throughput graphs, and per-radio spectrum analytics provide visibility into network health.

FAQ – Expert Answers
Q1: What sets the AP1920 apart from previous wall-plate APs?
It’s the first dual-radio Wi-Fi 7 wall-plate AP with a 2.5 GbE SFP uplink and 320 MHz support on 5 GHz for 3.57 Gbps peak rates.
Q2: Can I use copper PoE instead of SFP backhaul?
Yes—the AP supports standard 802.3at PoE+ for data and power over your existing switch gear.
Q3: How many clients can a single unit support?
Up to 1,536 concurrent devices, thanks to Wi-Fi 7’s enhanced scheduling and OFDMA efficiency.
Q4: Is guest isolation built-in?
Absolutely—guest-portal VLANs keep visitor traffic separate, with customizable bandwidth and time quotas.
Q5: Does the AP1920 support mesh networking?
No—designed for small-cell indoor deployments; use high-density AP placement instead of mesh.
Q6: How does surge protection work?
The integrated Ethernet surge guard blocks up to 6 kV of line voltage spikes on both uplink and downlink ports.
Q7: Are firmware upgrades disruptive?
No—use Ruijie Cloud or AC to schedule zero-impact upgrades with automatic rollback.
Q8: Can I monitor RF and client metrics in real time?
Yes—cloud dashboards and AC controllers provide live heat-maps, client counts, and performance alerts.
Conclusion
The Ruijie AP1920 Series wall-plate Wi-Fi 7 Access Points deliver future-proof, high-density indoor coverage with up to 3.570 Gbps throughput, 2.5 GbE SFP uplink, and comprehensive security.
