Ruckus brings out the beast...

[Haptic]

Ruckus have further expanded their range of industry leading Access Points with the ZoneFlex 7982.

 

 

 

Highest performance

 

BeamFlex adaptive antenna technology focuses RF energy towards the client resulting in higher performance than traditional APs

 

Dual concurrent 3x3:3 MIMO and BeamFlex

 

3 spatial streams combined with BeamFlex adaptive antenna technology ensures the most throughput out of the total 900Mbps available on the dual chip set even without the client capabilities required for chip based beamforming.

 

Best in class channel selection

 

ChannelFly is Ruckus’ unique approach to channel selection whereby channel capacity is “learned” in realtime ensuring the best channel selection and interference mitigation in congested RF environments.

 

Extended coverage means fewer APs

 

Directional, high-gain antennas dynamically combine to give hotspot operators and enterprises 2- to 4-times the coverage over typical consumer and enterprise APs.

 

Wire-like reliability

 

Advanced smart antenna array and Quality of Service (QoS) technology combine to deliver the industry’s most reliable and highest performing 802.11n system available.

 

Concurrent support for high-definition IP video, voice and data

 

A directional, high-gain antenna finds the best path for any given transmission allowing unprecedented support for picture perfect high-definition video, crystal clear voice and high speed data.

 

Unobtrusive design and integrated mounting

 

Sleek, lightweight design ensures easy installation. Low profile design blends naturally into any environment.

 

Distributed forwarding architecture eliminates bottlenecks

 

Standalone or controller-based, traffic is not forced through the controller eliminating any single point of failure or performance bottleneck.

 

 

FEATURES

• Concurrent dual-band (5GHz/2.4GHz) support

I think they were planning to include a faux fur wagging tail.

 

They thought better of it eventually.

Indoor Dual-Band 3×3:3 802.11n AP (ZoneFlex 7982)

 

How indoor? External IP-rated Ruckus access points seem to be rather pricy (£1,500-ish), so I was thinking of getting a standard indoor unit as above, putting it in a Tupaware box and mounting it on our balcony with a clamp tripod. Anyone know if that's likly to work okay?

You wouldn't qualify for the Ruckus Dog if you did that.

I would put it in an ip rated abs enclosure should be fine.
