The Ruckus ZoneFlex 2741 is the fi rst centrally-managed 802.11g

Smart Wi-Fi access point (AP) with advanced capabilities, such as

an integrated high-gain directional antenna array and smart wire-

less meshing, not found in any other outdoor wireless AP.

Designed for harsh outdoor conditions, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 2741

is perfect for service providers looking to easily and affordably

extend branded broadband services, offl oad data traffi c from

congested 3G networks, deploy multimedia hotspots or offer

wireless broadband services where fi xed line access is limited.

The ZoneFlex 2741 is also ideal for hotels, schools, warehouses

and other enterprises needing to extend managed wireless LANs

(WLANs) outdoors where Ethernet cabling is not possible.

The ZoneFlex 2741 is capable of sustaining performance of up

to 20 Mbps over 100 meters and up to 10 Mbps over 300 meters

or more. The ZoneFlex 2741 can be deployed and managed as a

standalone AP, as part of a distributed Wi-Fi network using the

Ruckus FlexMaster™ system or as part of a managed WLAN using

the Ruckus ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controller.

Each ZoneFlex 2741 integrates Ruckus-patented BeamFlex™

smart antenna technology that automatically adapts Wi-Fi sig-

nals to changing environmental conditions – enabling unprec-

edented multimedia support, ensuring stable user connectivity

and delivering consistent performance at longer ranges.

Flexible deployment options using sophisticated tunneling

and traffi c redirection techniques, allow support for a number

of hotspot business models. Advanced remote management

includes support for Ruckus FlexMaster (using TR-069) remote

WLAN management system as well as the ZoneDirector™ WLAN

controller (using SNMP).

The ZoneFlex 2741 can be confi gured in minutes through a

Web-based wizard on the Ruckus ZoneDirector controller. The

Ruckus ZoneFlex 2741 simply plugs into any Ethernet network

and automatically discovers the ZoneDirector. No RF tuning. No

client confi guration. A true plug-and-play multimedia WLAN

that is ready to use, stable and high performance.

ZoneFlex 2741 802.11g Smart Wi-Fi Outdoor Access Point

Ultra high performance and cost effectiveUnlike any other outdoor AP available today, each Ruckus ZoneFlex 2741 integrates a state-of-the-art intelligent antenna array that extends signal coverage and adapts to changes in the RF environment. Sophisticated expert control software constantly steers Wi-Fi signals over the best performing paths while rejecting interference – all in real time. This high-gain smart antenna array supports up to 100 simultaneous data users or 20 concurrent voice calls, and capable of sustaining 20 Mbps of per-formance over 100 meters (LOS) and up to 10 Mbps of sustained throughput up to 300 meters. Superior signal coverage reduces the number of APs required for any given area.

Flexible deployment options and robust managementThe ZoneFlex 2741 is ideally suited to help providers deliver consistent access policies and user experience across all loca-tions using advanced tunneling or traffi c redirection techniques. The ZoneFlex 2741 can be deployed and managed individually as a standalone AP using SNMP or remotely as part of a network of APs, leveraging using the TR-069 protocol supported by the Ruckus FlexMaster Smart Wi-Fi management platform. The ZoneFlex 2741 can also be deployed as part of a managed wire-less LAN system using the ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controller.

Simple confi gurationRuckus ZoneFlex 2741 APs are automatically confi gured by the Ruckus ZoneDirector. A network of APs can be centrally confi g-ured quickly and simply through the ZoneDirector’s Web-based wizard. And with the self-optimizing Ruckus BeamFlex technol-ogy, the ZoneFlex 2741 can be installed without extensive site surveys and RF planning.

Smart meshing increases fl exibility, reduces costsThe ZoneFlex 2741 uniquely supports Ruckus Smart Mesh Networking technology. This enables providers and enterprises

to easily extend Wi-Fi services to locations where cabling Ethernet is cost prohibitive or impossible. Smart Mesh Networking is self-organizing and self-healing allowing admin-istrators to plug ZoneFlex 2741 APs into PoE injectors, then walk away. All confi guration and management is delivered through the ZoneDirector Smart WLAN platform. Patented Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi technology provides extended range and dynamic signal controls between mesh nodes, minimizing inter-nodal hops that degrade performance. Dynamic RF routing between mesh nodes adapts ensures high reliability when the environment changes.

Business-class, smart multimedia hotspotsThe ZoneFlex 2741 lets operators build a new class of multimedia hotspots. Equipped with a dual-polarized directional antenna system, the ZoneFlex 2741 delivers stable connectivity to any Wi-Fi-enabled handheld device and fl icker-free support for con-current video streams and voice over Wi-Fi calls.

Differentiated services with multiple SSIDsUp to eight discrete SSIDs can be confi gured within each Ruckus ZoneFlex 2741, each with unique broadcast, QoS, security and management parameters assigned. This enables hot-zone opera-tors to easily offer tiered services to different user or traffi c types. Enterprises can use this features to differentiate guest, contractor and employee access policies or to segment traffi c types.

Dynamic RF managementAn integrated smart antenna system (BeamFlex) automatically coordinates local RF management – automatically steering Wi-Fi signals toward each receiver and away from noise. Unlike omni antennas, BeamFlex does not constantly radiate in all direc-tions thereby minimizing adjacent AP interference. The Ruckus ZoneDirector also dynamically exerts control over RF channel assignments and transmit power levels to further optimize the RF environment without manual intervention.

With a sleek, purpose-built IP-65 enclosure, the ZoneFlex 2741 can be deployed in harsh environmental conditions ranging from -20°C - 65°C ( -4°F - 149°F)

A patented smart antenna array integrates six high-gain vertically and horizontally-polarized antenna elements. This enables up to 4096 potential antenna combinations and up to 10 dB gain, delivering unprecedented range extension, signal reliability and higher data rates.

Flexible mounting options, including pole, ceiling or wall mounting.

ENTERPRISE WLAN EXTENSION

ZoneFlex 2741 Smart Wi-Fi access points can be deployed as a seamless extension (meshed or wired) to a managed wireless LAN working in concert with

indoor ZoneFlex 2942 APs and controlled by the Ruckus ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controller.

SMARTER MULTIMEDIA HOTSPOTS (SMARTSPOTS)

Perfect for offloading data traffic from 3G networks, the ZoneFlex 2741 also supports L2TP tunneling and WISPr traffic redirection (future) providing the cost-effective extension of carrier-branded broadband services and creating more robust multimedia hotspots.

WIRELESS BROADBAND ACCESS A long-range, adaptive smart antenna system within each ZoneFlex 2741 allows providers to reliably deliver new wireless DSL services in areas where fixed line access is non-existent or cost prohibitive.
