Overview of the Ruckus Wireless AP
Congratulations on your purchase of the Ruckus Wireless AP! Ruckus Wireless APs
are the industry's most easy to use, yet robust and feature-rich Wi-Fi APs designed
to bring power and simplicity together for large-scale indoor deployments.
Your Ruckus Wireless AP 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 high-gain directional antenna
elements that allow Ruckus Wireless APs to find quality signal paths in a changing
environment, and sustain the baseline performance required for supporting data,
audio and video applications.
Your Ruckus Wireless AP can be deployed in standalone mode with or without a
FlexMaster (FM) manager, or as part of the Ruckus Wireless Smart WLAN system,
in which it can be managed by a Ruckus Wireless controller. The rest of this
document collectively refers to the SCG, vSCG SZ, vSZ, ZD, SAMs and other
controllers as Ruckus Wireless controllers.

Wireless controllers and FM), BeamFlex, the Ruckus Wireless controller operating
