Ruckus Unleashed™, The Controller-less Access Point Solution for SMB

2 Mar 2016

Smart devices are playing a critical role in influencing customer decisions and behaviors. While Wi-Fi devices have become an absolute requirement for customers and employees, small to midsize businesses (SMBs) are challenged to deploy
a reliable wireless network within a limited budget and little to no IT staff.

Ruckus Unleashed is a controller-less wireless LAN solution that enables SMBs to deliver an optimal wireless experience at an affordable price point. Configured in 60 seconds and deployed in minutes, Ruckus Unleashed eliminates the complexity pitfall of a controller-based WLAN. With easy migration options to the Ruckus ZoneDirector, SmartZone or future Ruckus platforms, Ruckus Unleashed scales with your business. Now SMBs can deliver a Wi-Fi user experience with high RF performance and network resiliency.
SOLUTION OVERVIEW
With 802.11ac Ruckus Unleashed access points (AP), users can take advantage of higher speeds, better coverage, and improved reliability. Unleashed APs include key Ruckus technologies, such as BeamFlex+ Adaptive Antenna Technology to maximize signal coverage, throughput, and network capacity, and ChannelFly, our predictive capacity management for RF channel selection. And Zero-IT enables easy device onboarding with several key guest features, such as guest WLAN access, captive portal, Guest Pass, and Custom Logo, to provide key value add services to users.
With Unleashed, each AP in the network will actively serve clients. And this controller-less solution supports single location deployments, up to 25 APs and/or 512 clients.
Simple Deployment
The Unleashed WLAN network can be set up in a matter of
minutes, eliminating the need for large IT staff. There are 3
simple steps to set up the Unleashed network:
1. Simply power on the Unleashed access points
2. Connect to the Unleashed AP via open SSID or DNS
3. Easily configure one master access point using the
Unleashed online wizard
When configuring the network, a standby AP will be chosen
automatically. This ensures resiliency in the network.
Additionally, all member APs will automatically discover and
join the master

solution
