Ruckus Wireless Offers ZoneFlex 7762 Access Point

Ruckus Wireless is now offering a new outdoor wireless product known as the ZoneFlex 7762 access point, where it is billed to be the “world’s first and only outdoor dual-band 802.11n with dynamic beam forming.” This device is touted to solve problems which have long hindered outdoor Wi-Fi deployments, and among these include interference, physical obstructions, network management complexity and cost. The ZoneFlex 7762 is the first centrally managed, concurrent dual-band 802.11n (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) outdoor access point from Ruckus wireless, and theoretically can sustain performance of up to 150 Mbps over 1,000 feet between meshed nodes and up to 50 Mbps to client devices over 500 feet. No only that, it functions well within a group of multiple units that covers a large area. The ZoneFlex 7762 will be out this August at $1,999 a pop.
