ZoneFlex 2942 ™ Smart Wi-Fi 802.11g Multimedia Access Point The First Centrally Managed, Multimedia W-Fi Solution for the Small Business and Hot Zone BENEFITS The Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 is the first centrally managed, multimedia 802.11g Wi-Fi access point that delivers industrial-strength features and functionality not available No RF experts required Smart antenna array eliminates AP placement issues and minimizes adjacent AP interference while ZoneDirector controls dynamic channel assignment and power management in any low-end consumer AP or high-end WLAN system. Breakthrough user performance and density Together with the Ruckus ZoneDirector central WLAN controller, Ruckus ZoneFlex APs plug-and-play with Advanced antenna array and precision QoS software delivers 20 concurrent voice call, 50 simultaneous data users or 20 Mbps of sustained video quality throughput per access point minimum operational overhead. Ideal for hotels, schools, airports and small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) with little Extended coverage means fewer APs or no IT staff and a limited budget, the Ruckus ZoneFlex Directional, high-gain antennas dynamically combined to give hotspot operators and SMBs two to four times the coverage over typical consumer and enterprise APs 2942 is also perfect for hot spot operators that want to deliver business class hot spot services – such as voice over Wi-Fi, IP-based video or secure enterprise access. The ZoneFlex 2942 implements Ruckus patented BeamFlex™ smart antenna technology that enables consistent, high performance, extended coverage and Optimized for voice over Wi-Fi Specialized antenna design, dynamic signal path selection and precision QoS software optimize delay-sensitive, high-density Vo-Fi applications. Power Save (UAPSD) maximizes handset battery life multimedia support as it automatically tunes itself to adapt Proven video streaming support to constant changes in the environment. This means fewer Ruckus smart antenna system and video QoS already proven for real time IP video streaming applications deployed by over 100 IPTV operators worldwide APs, more satisfied users, and a cost effective system that can be installed anywhere by non-wireless experts. A Web-based wizard allows any computer user to “IT lite” configuration and management Web-based wizard enables configuration of multiple APs configure ZoneFlex 2942s through the ZoneDirector across the entire WLAN in minutes. Once configured the – creating a secure and sophisticated WLAN in a matter WLAN manages itself of minutes. Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942s simply plug into any Ethernet network and automatically discover the ZoneDirector. No RF tuning. No client configuration. A true plug-and-play multimedia WLAN that is ready to use. Enables business class hot spot services New revenue opportunities for operators such as Voiceover-WLAN services, extended enterprise access, IP video applications and tiered service classes Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 Smart Wi-Fi 802.11g Multimedia Access Point Introducing the Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 The Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 fills the gap between low end, feature-sparse consumer AP and expensive, complex enterprise-class WLANs. It is the first truly-affordable, centrally-managed 802.11g multimedia access point specifically designed for hot zone operators and SMBs. Working in concert with the ZoneDirector system, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 delivers a complete, plugand-play, secure and robust WLAN solution without the cost or complexity of high-end systems. High performance and cost effective The Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 is built on patented BeamFlex Smart antenna technology that automatically adapts to the RF environment by steering Wi-Fi signals on the best path and rejecting interference in real time. Each Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 comes equipped with a state-of-the-art, high-gain smart an- Centralized configuration and RF management of Zoneflex APs can be provided through the ZoneDirector 1000 tenna array designed to deliver unsurpassed density and range. Supporting up to 50 simultaneous data users or 20 concurrent voice calls while its superior coverage reduces the number of APs required by a factor of two or more, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 gives hot zone operators and SMBs the most cost-effective multimedia Wi-Fi solution. IT “lite” deployment The self-optimizing BeamFlex technology allows the Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 to be installed without site survey and RF planning. Simply plug any Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 into an Ethernet and it automatically discovers the Ruckus ZoneDirector and self-configures. The Ruckus ZoneFlex 2942 and ZoneDirector system seamlessly integrate with existing security systems such as firewalls, intrusion detection system and A state-of-the-art smart antenna array authentication servers including RADIUS and ActiveDirectory.
