RUCKUS Fiber Backpack (Gen 4)

Fiber to the room deployments require an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) device to connect wireless access points (APs) to fiber media. In most cases that means deploying an additional device in the guest room. Installing an ONT along with an AP leads to wire clutter, device power, safety and other challenges that can impact room aesthetics. In addition, most ONTs today are fiber type specific and don’t support interchangeable SFP transceivers.

The RUCKUS Fiber Backpack is a field installable, Fiber-to-Ethernet Media Converter accessory providing customers with a fiber Optic Network Terminal (ONT) backhaul interface for the H350 and H550 wall-plate APs. It simplifies Wi-Fi deployments for fiber-ready hotels/ MDUs. The fiber backpack is designed to integrate with the H350 and H550 APs, and can also be used as a standalone media converter with the use of an optional front cover. It supports both PON and Fiber Ethernet 1GbE SFP modules. It also provides PoE to power the attached H350 or H550 AP.
