Product Overview
The R250D and R250D-E are remote units (RUs) used in Huawei agile distributed Wi-Fi
solution. They support PoE power supply, and are deployed indoors and connected to the
central AP. The central AP and RUs are connected through network cables, which greatly
extends the coverage range, enhances flexibility in AP deployment and planning, and reduces
the engineering construction costs. The central AP manages the RUs and processes services in
a centralized manner. The RUs process radio signals independently. Such distributed
architecture further improves the wireless access capability, creating optimal service
experience for users.
The RU uses an 86 mm plate in compliance with international standards and can be easily
installed into a junction box in a room. It is equipped with a built-in antenna and a hidden
indicator; therefore, installation of the RU does not affect indoor decorations and designs. It
also has an IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ac wave2 wireless module and can work on both 5 GHz
and 2.4 GHz frequency bands.
The RU is recommended for environments with complex wall structures and high-density
rooms, such as schools, hotels, hospitals, and office meeting rooms. Signals are transmitted
through network cables without attenuation. The RUs are deployed indoors and provide
comprehensive signal coverage.
The RUs are managed by the central AP. The central AP and RUs are plug-and-play and can
be managed and maintained in real time. Compared with traditional distributed AP solutions,
the AC in Huawei agile distributed Wi-Fi solution needs to manage a smaller number of APs.
A large number of RUs can be deployed, which improves the overall performance and reduces
network deployment costs.
