  1. Better Wi-Fi for All Enterprises Ruckus ZoneFlex

  2. TheWorldisChanging…Fast • New devices/applications redefining wireless landscape • Video estimated to account for 66 percent of global mobile data traffic by 2014 • Enterprise mobile data traffic 126% CAGR Potential Data Traffic Growth from Single User 14,275MB 30 MB 1050MB

  3. Wi-Fi is undependable, signal strength erratic Performance is inconsistent Signals don’t reach, coverage is spotty WLAN systems are costly, cumbersome, and complex What’sthe Problem(s)? CONSISTENT PERFORMANCE AT ANY RANGE

  4. Interference is a Wi-Fi Killer! 802.11 is a shared medium operating in the unlicensed bands Many interfering sources don’t respect 802.11 protocols Interference effects both TX and RX If a Wi-Fi device hears interfering signal, it will defer and not transmit Interference also impacts your ability to receive error-free packets Mitigating Wi-Fi interference is about managing the spectrum Dropped connections have significant impact on productivity
