DUAL-BAND 3X3:3 802.11N SMART WI-FI AP
The Industry’s Highest Capacity, Highest Performing
Three-Stream 802.11n AP
Ruckus ZoneFlex 7982 is the industry’s first dual-band, three-stream
802.11n access point that incorporates Ruckus-patented BeamFlex™
adaptive antenna arrays. Coupled with transmit beamforming (TxBF),
when available, the ZoneFlex 7982 delivers the highest throughput of
any AP in its class.

The ZoneFlex 7982 ensures the most reliable connectivity within
challenging and ever-changing RF environments. With BeamFlex, the
ZoneFlex 7982 offers a 2-4x increase in performance and range and
is capable of delivering up to 9 dB of signal-to-interference-plus-noise
(SINR) improvement and up to 15 dB of interference mitigation over
other APs. Capable of supporting 500 concurrent clients, the ZoneFlex
7982 simultaneously supports spatial multiplexing and BeamFlex to
deliver the best price/performance of any three-stream 802.11n AP.

With a stream throughput of 450 Mbps per radio, the ZoneFlex 7982
ensures maximum throughput to three-stream capable clients while
also improving single and dual-stream client performance. This
is achieved through the unique combination of adaptive antenna
technology, predictive channel selection and adaptive polarization
diversity. Backward compatible with all existing clients, the ZoneFlex
7982 can function either as a standalone AP or as part of centrally-
managed Wireless LAN with the Ruckus ZoneDirector Smart WLAN
controller.

ZoneFlex 7982 is purpose-built for high-capacity, high performance
and interference-laden environments such as airports, public venues,
hotels, universities and conference centers. The perfect choice for
data-intensive streaming multimedia applications, the ZoneFlex 7982
delivers picture perfect HD-quality IP video while supporting VoIP and
data applications that have stringent quality of service requirements.
