Selecting a wireless LAN solution that curates both small to medium-sized networks can be a tricky task. Find here our Ruijie Networks are changing them both.
There is no direct classification of wireless LANs for their sizes and ranges but they are classified according to the scale of businesses they are used. The smaller scale of such networks are “small” and “medium” sized wireless networks, both providing access to local devices being used in a running business. These networks run in small offices, restaurants, cafes, SMEs, etc.
Both small and medium size networks represent local area networks with the same wireless technologies but different connectivity speeds. In recent years, the advancement in connectivity features of wireless LAN has exponentially increased and Ruijie Networks has been pretty busy in adapting and perfecting the new technologies.
For example, the RG-EG3200 series adopts all such new advancements and offers solutions of an AP, router, and switch in in smart package. Below are the most significant ones that users get out of the box with Ruijie Networks’ new products designed for such networks, especially the latest RG-EG3200 series.
- Smart Traffic Control:
One of the most common scenarios in small and medium networks is their bottlenecked network speeds due to uneven bandwidth distribution within the network. The smart traffic controls in the Ruijie Wi-Fi network of the RG-EG3200 series are designed to identify traffic with prioritization features and dynamic adjustment features. Moreover, users can tweak the Quality of Service (QoS) option to prioritize certain apps and services that are sensitive to latency values.
- Two WAN Ports:
The new series of all-in-one routers feature 2 WAN (Wide Area Network) ports removing the need for two routers in a small or medium-sized network. This cuts off the costs and also makes the management of the network much more confident and simpler. Moreover, the presence of two WAN ports also helps the network administrators manage redundancy and load balancing in network setups. They can also use one WAN port as the primary link for their network and the other as a backup.
- JaCS Cloud Management Platform:
JaCS or Just a Cloud System from Ruijie Networks is a centrally managed cloud system used to manage, monitor, and configure switches, access points, and security devices. Anything connected to Ruijie Wi-Fi can be accessed and configured.
With free trial and remote access, JaCS is super easy to use and helps routers like the RG-EG3200 series to be easily installed and managed in a small or medium-sized network. Features like WLAN visualization, alarm advanced systems, real topologies, and the ability to manage all Ruijie network devices in one platform make it a worthy management tool.
- Extreme Operating Temperatures:
Equipped with components susceptible to less wear and tear increases the life of the device and its operating temperatures. Small networks can have sharp temperature fluctuations due to weak outdoor electrical cabinets and other factors. Ruijie Network’s router like the RG-EG5210-JP is designed to couple all extreme fluctuations in temperatures one can have i.e. -10°C to 55° Celsius.
- Meaning Network Investment:
Such reliable wireless LAN running on an all-in-one router significantly impacts the capital investment requirements for a network supporting a small to medium-sized business. Better management of bandwidth, two WAN ports with one in backup, fast 2Gbps speeds with QOS options, and a wide range of operating temperatures, all running in a smart and single package make such routers a meaningful investment for a small and medium-sized network.
- Superior Performance:
Designed for small and medium networks, the new RG-EG3200 series packs some serious hardware with benchmarks crossing the routers in the same class. This series may not come with many accessories, but what it does have is an all-in-one solution that is very performance-oriented and simple to set up.
Is it Suitable for your Business?
Small and medium-sized networks are usually constrained by budget caps when investing in network infrastructure. In the current age of industrial standards and business means, an uninterrupted wireless LAN with remote monitoring and configuration, dual WAN connectivity, and QOS options are a must. If your organization needs all of this, which we presume it does, then the feature-packed RG-EG3200 series is a worthy consideration in your investment plans.
