Ruckus Wireless, a mobile inter networking company, today announced that it has broken the price/performance barrier for 802.11n wireless networking with the introduction of the new ZoneFlex 7300 series of midrange access points.
The sub-$500 enterprise-class 802.11n access point, the ZoneFlex 7300 series includes both single-band (7343) and dual band (7363) products. According to a press release with maximum 802.11n capacity of 300Mbps (single band) or 600Mbps (dual band), the ZoneFlex 7300 has been measured to deliver unparalleled throughput of 210Mbps at short ranges (10 to 20 feet) and over 120 Mbps at longer ranges (60 to 100 feet) within a typical, walled office environment - making it the industry's lowest cost, highest performing line of 802.11n access points.
The release adds that ZoneFlex 7300 series is first Wi-Fi access points in their class to integrate patented smart antenna array and dynamic beamforming technology that delivers unmatched reliability and performance at near and far distances.
For solution developers and system integrators, the 7300 series can be custom ordered with an add-on USB port for value-added applications such as machine-to-machine (m2m) communications or WAN link backup using a 3G/4G/EVDO dongle.
"Enterprises and service providers around the world are trying to deal with a tsunami of Wi-Fi-enabled mobile internet devices in the hands of a growing user population that expects fast and reliable connectivity everywhere, all the time," said Selina Lo in Bangalore on Monday, president and CEO of Ruckus Wireless. "802.11n is expected to be the answer, but high prices and inconsistent performance have hampered mass adoption. Ruckus Wireless is breaking down these barriers once and for all."
