ZoneFlex 2925
802.11g Smart Wi-Fi Access Point
Ruckus Dynamic PSK
 on the Ruckus ZoneDirector and ZoneFlex 
2925 automates this process to assure integrity of the user authen-
tication system. First-time users simply plug their computers into 
the LAN and specify a URL that directs them to a captive portal for 
a one-time authentication. Upon authentication, the ZoneDirector 
automatically confi gures the user’s system with the designated SSID 
and a unique, dynamically-generated encryption key. The key can be 
removed automatically upon expiration, or manually when the user or 
their device is no longer trusted.
Business-Class, Multimedia Hotspots
The ZoneFlex 2925 lets operators build a new class of hotspots and 
offers multimedia hotspot services. Equipped with a dual-polarized 
directional antenna system, the ZoneFlex 2925 delivers stable con-
nectivity to any Wi-Fi-enabled handheld device and fl icker-free sup-
port for concurrent video streams and voice over Wi-Fi calls.
Differentiated Services with Multiple SSIDs
Up to eight discrete SSIDs can be confi gured within each Ruckus 
ZoneFlex 2925, each with unique broadcast, QoS, security and 
management parameters assigned. This enables hot-zone opera-
tors to easily offer tiered services to different user or traffi c types. 
Enterprises can use this features to differentiate guest, contractor 
and employee access policies or to segment different traffi c types.
Dynamic RF Management
A Ruckus ZoneFlex WLAN is inherently RF-coordinated as BeamFlex 
automatically steers Wi-Fi signals toward each receiver, and away 
from noise, in real time. And unlike omni antennas, BeamFlex does 
not constantly radiate in all directions, thereby minimizing the 
chances of adjacent AP interference. As a last resort, the Ruckus 
ZoneDirector can dynamically exert control over the RF channel 
assignment and transmit power levels on the ZoneFlex APs, to further 
optimize the RF environment without manual intervention.
