Ruckus Wireless

Amernet Sp. z o.o. is a licensed partner of Ruckus Wireless, headquartered in Sunnyvale, California.
Ruckus Wireless develops advanced wireless network systems that solve the most important problems of mobile internet access and efficient interconnection. The company offers a wide range of “Smart Wi-Fi” products for indoor and outdoor use by network operators, ISPs, businesses of all sizes and local communities around the world.

Ruckus invented and patented a unique transmission technology that lets radio signals automatically route around obstacles and avoid interference. This translates into greater network coverage and guaranteed high throughput, which is essential for video streaming, VoIP and other media using standard 802.11a/b/g/n clients. The company holds more than 40 patents in adaptive RF path selection, beam steering, beam forming and quality of service.
Since it was founded in 2004, the company has installed more than 2 million Wi-Fi systems worldwide, growing at a 119% CAGR.
Ruckus offers a centrally managed smart WLAN system designed for businesses that need solid, reliable and flexible wireless networks with low maintenance costs. Thanks to easy installation and even simpler management, the Ruckus system is an attractive alternative to conventional WLANs, which are expensive, complex and inconvenient to operate. This makes it an excellent choice for organisations with a limited budget and small IT staff that still want centrally managed, high-performance wireless networks.


The Ruckus product family includes

  • ZoneFlex Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n access points for both indoor and outdoor use,
  • scalable ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controllers that can manage from 6 to 1,000 ZoneFlex Smart Wi-Fi access points.

The Ruckus product family is ideal for any business environment where the priority is serving a large number of users at once and the reliability of the Wi-Fi system.
ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controllers are the first business-class Smart WLAN solution to deliver a simple, secure, robust and easily expandable WLAN infrastructure with exceptionally low deployment and maintenance costs.

ZoneDirector 1200

ZoneDirector automatically monitors and controls ZoneFlex access points, including their configuration, channel allocation, power levels and system status. It offers breakthrough WLAN features such as adaptive wireless meshing (Smart Mesh Networking), advanced RF management, next-generation quality of service including airtime fairness and band steering (SmartCast), robust security (SmartSec), and secure tunnelling and traffic redirection. It also offers all the traditional WLAN management features – advanced authentication, modern encryption, fast roaming, secure guest access and intrusion detection – that are standard in centrally managed WLAN systems.
ZoneFlex Smart Wi-Fi access points are the first centrally managed multimedia Wi-Fi access points able to extend wireless coverage two to four times more efficiently than conventional devices.

ZoneFlex 7321 dual-band

ZoneFlex access points use integrated, miniaturised smart antenna arrays that automatically steer the Wi-Fi signal over the best paths, avoiding interference and obstacles that affect connection quality.
Ruckus dual-band access points support band steering, moving some clients to the less used 5 GHz band whenever possible. This balances the load across the available radios, which in turn keeps the Wi-Fi network stable. Like ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controllers, ZoneFlex access points are based on a plug-and-play architecture that minimises the operational burden on the business. All ZoneFlex access points include Ruckus BeamFlex technology with smart antenna arrays and support the advanced Smart Mesh Networking system. Ruckus BeamFlex, a patented smart Wi-Fi antenna technology, provides consistently high support for multimedia services. It continuously adapts the antenna configuration to each receiver and reconfigures in real time to avoid interference and physical barriers. Highly sensitive elements provide 9 dBi of antenna gain, 17 dB of interference rejection and the best possible receive sensitivity (down to -98 dBm). The direct result is fewer access points, happier end users and lower maintenance costs, thanks to the elimination of dead spots and much greater Wi-Fi coverage and performance.
Smart Mesh Networking uses patented Ruckus BeamFlex technology and advanced RF routing to create adaptive long-range wireless links between Smart Wi-Fi access points. This reduces the operating cost of deploying a WLAN by eliminating the need to run Ethernet cables to every access point, and halves the time needed to install and deploy the network.
The IEEE 802.11n standard brings faster data transmission and higher throughput. Ruckus ZoneFlex access points make this a reality with BeamFlex technology and Automatic Interference Mitigation (AIM). This combination hides the complexity of 802.11n and simplifies deployment while increasing wireless performance and coverage. The advanced antenna gives full control over the paths the Wi-Fi signal takes, so the optimal, “cleanest” path is chosen for every packet in the system. This increases the likelihood of performance gains across the coverage area through 802.11n mechanisms such as spatial multiplexing, channel bonding and frame aggregation.
