Congratulations on your purchase of the Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex Access Point!
ZoneFlex Access Points are the industry's most easy to use, yet robust and feature-
rich Wi-Fi Access Points designed to bring power and simplicity together for large-
scale indoor deployments.
Your ZoneFlex Access Point uses BeamFlex™, a patented antenna technology from
Ruckus Wireless that allows wireless signals to navigate around interference, extend
wireless signal range, and increase speeds and capacity for wireless networks. The
BeamFlex™ antenna system consists of an array of up to fourteen high-gain direc-
tional antenna elements that allow ZoneFlex Access Points to find quality signal paths
in a changing environment, and sustain the baseline performance required for
supporting data, audio and video applications.
Your ZoneFlex Access Point can be deployed in standalone mode or as part of the
ZoneFlex Smart WLAN system, in which it can be managed by either FlexMaster or
ZoneDirector WLAN controller.
NOTE: For more information on the ZoneFlex system (including FlexMaster and
ZoneDirector), BeamFlex, and other Ruckus Wireless technologies, visit
