Ruijie Access Points

Ruijie access points add Wi-Fi to a wired network, taking data and usually power from a switch port. This page covers Reyee RG-RAP models and the enterprise RG-AP range: ceiling units such as the RG-RAP2260(G), wall-plate units for hotel rooms and offices, and outdoor units such as the IP65 RG-RAP62-OD and the IP68 RG-RAP6262. Wi-Fi standards run from Wi-Fi 5 to Wi-Fi 7, with tri-radio Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 models for the 6 GHz band.

Choosing Ruijie Access Points

Match a Ruijie access point to its mounting position, the number of users and the switch port behind it.

Reyee or enterprise RG-AP

Reyee models such as the RG-RAP2260 are set up from the Ruijie Cloud app, and Reyee Mesh brings extra units into the same network. The RG-AP models suit larger sites: the RG-AP840-L can run under Ruijie Cloud or in fit, fat and controller modes, and the RG-AP810-L is supplied with a Ruijie Cloud lifetime licence.

Ceiling and wall-plate units

Ceiling units cover open rooms and corridors. The RG-RAP2260 is rated at 2.97 Gbps with a 2.5 Gbps uplink, while the tri-radio RG-AP880-L adds the 6 GHz band of Wi-Fi 6E and peaks at 7.78 Gbps. Wall-plate units replace a faceplate and add wired ports: the RG-RAP1260 has five Gigabit ports and can run in AP or routing mode, and the Wi-Fi 7 RG-RAP72-Wall is about 24 mm thick with an anti-theft lock.

Outdoor units

Check the IP rating first. The RG-RAP62-OD and RG-RAP72Pro-OD are IP65 units for wall or pole mounting, and the IP68 RG-AP680(CD) operates between −40°C and +65°C. For car parks and plazas, the RG-RAP6260(H) has optical ports for long-distance deployment and a 2.5 Gbit/s uplink.

Powering the access points

Most models here draw PoE through their uplink port, so no mains socket is needed at the mounting point. Match the switch to the unit: the RG-AP180P-L draws up to 25 W and PoE+ is recommended for its full features, the RG-AP840-L accepts 802.3af, at or bt PoE or a 54 V DC input, and the RG-RAP52-OD also takes 24 V passive PoE.

Related categories

Feed the access points from PoE switches or the wider network switches and PoE range, and build out a Ruijie network with Ruijie switches, Ruijie routers, Ruijie modules and Ruijie optical cable. Other makes sit in wireless access points and fibre optic networking.

Frequently asked questions

Which Ruijie access points support Wi-Fi 7?

Wi-Fi 7 models here include the RG-RAP72Pro ceiling unit, the RG-RAP72Pro-OD for indoor or outdoor use, and the RG-RAP72-Wall wall-plate unit. These three are dual-band and use Multi-Link Operation (MLO). The RG-RAP72Pro also uses 4K-QAM, and the RG-RAP72-Wall has a 2.5 Gbps uplink for a multi-gig switch port.

Which Ruijie access points can be fitted outside?

Choose one of the IP-rated outdoor units. IP65 models such as the RG-RAP52-OD, RG-RAP62-OD and RG-RAP72Pro-OD mount on a wall or pole, and IP68 models such as the RG-RAP6202(G), RG-RAP6260(G) and RG-AP680P-L are built for harsher exposed sites. The RG-AP680P-L adds 6 kV surge protection and salt-spray corrosion protection, and operates between −40°C and +65°C.

Can Ruijie access points work together as a mesh?

Yes, several Reyee models join a Reyee Mesh network. The RG-RAP2260 and RG-RAP1260 support Reyee Mesh, and the RG-RAP6262 uses it to add outdoor Wi-Fi coverage. The RG-RAP52-OD pairs mesh with layer-2 and layer-3 roaming, so phones and laptops can move between units as people walk around a site. A mesh unit still needs power, from PoE or its own supply.

Which Ruijie access point suits a hotel room or office?

A wall-plate unit is usually the neatest choice, because it sits over the room back box and adds wired ports as well as Wi-Fi. The RG-RAP1201 is a Wi-Fi 5 model with one downlink port for a local device, the RG-RAP1260 is a Wi-Fi 6 unit with five Gigabit ports, and the RG-RAP72-Wall brings Wi-Fi 7 with four Gigabit LAN ports and an anti-theft lock.

What do AX3000 and BE5040 mean on a Ruijie access point?

They are roughly the radios’ top rates added together, in Mbps, with AX marking Wi-Fi 6 and BE marking Wi-Fi 7. The AX3000 RG-RAP2260 is rated at 2.97 Gbps across both bands, and the AX1800 RG-RAP2260(G) at up to 1775Mbps. A single phone or laptop sees a fraction of that figure, because the bands and airtime are shared between the connected devices.
