Use half the number of Cisco/Aruba AP’s to blanket your facilities (this<br />
also means 50% less cabling, switch ports, controller licenses, etc.)<br />

“ <strong>Wi</strong>reless is no longer just an<br />
option, it’s a necessity. We<br />
needed a wireless system that<br />
could cope with constant RF<br />
changes, provide ubiquitous<br />
signal coverage, and stable<br />
connectivity to our clients.<br />
The Ruckus <strong>Wi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> system<br />
does that. ”<br />
