ZoneFlex 7942
802.11n Smart Wi-Fi Access Point
Best Performance and Cost Effective
Based on the IEEE 802.11n standards, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 sup-
ports up to 300Mbps of data capacity. What differentiates the ZoneFlex 
7942 is the integration of patented Ruckus BeamFlex Smart antenna 
technology that automatically adapts to the RF environment by steering 
Wi-Fi signals on the best path, while rejecting interference in real time. 
Each Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 comes equipped with a state-of-the-art, 
high-gain smart antenna array designed to deliver unsurpassed density 
and range. Supporting up to 100 simultaneous data users or 20 concur-
rent voice calls while its superior coverage reduces the number of APs 
required, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 delivers the industry’s the most 
cost-effective 802.11n Wi-Fi solution.
Simple Deployment
The self-optimizing Ruckus BeamFlex technology allows the Ruckus 
ZoneFlex 7942 to be installed without site survey and RF planning. 
Simply plug any Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 into an Ethernet and it automati-
cally discovers the Ruckus ZoneDirector and self-confi gures. 
The Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 and ZoneDirector system seamlessly 
integrate with existing security systems such as fi rewalls, intrusion 
detection systems and authentication servers including RADIUS and 
ActiveDirectory. An internal authentication database lets enterprises 
implement user authentication without the expense and complexity 
associated with external authentication servers. 
Simple Confi guration
Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 APs are automatically confi gured by the Ruckus 
ZoneDirector. A network of APs can be centrally confi gured in a matter 
of minutes through the ZoneDirector’s web-based wizard. 
Smart Mesh Networking Increases Flexibility, Reduces Costs
Ruckus Smart Mesh Networking enables self-organizing and self-healing 
wireless meshing. Smart Mesh Networking eliminates the need to run 
Ethernet cabling to every Smart Wi-Fi AP, allowing administrators to sim-
ply plug ZoneFlex APs into any power source, then walk away. All confi g-
uration and management is delivered through the ZoneDirector Smart 
WLAN platform. Leveraging patented Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi technology 
that provides extended range and dynamic signal controls, Smart Mesh 
Networking minimizes the inter-nodal hops that can degrade perfor-
mance, automatically adapts Wi-Fi connections between nodes to 
environmental changes, and requires fewer APs to be deployed.
Automatic User Security
Used with the Ruckus ZoneDirector, the Ruckus ZoneFlex 7942 pro-
vides fi rst-of-its-kind automatic, robust user security enforcement. 
Provisioning secure wireless access often involves confi guring all the 
client devices with a wireless setting such as an SSID and encryption key. 
Typically organizations use a single pre-shared key for all employees. 
This is a security problem and an ongoing operational headache. 
A patented smart antenna array integrates six high-gain 
vertically-polarized and six horizontally-polarized antenna 
elements. This enables up to 4096 potential antenna 
combinations and up to 9 dBi gain, thereby delivering 
unprecedented range extension and signal reliability. The 
dual polarized smart antenna increases the effectiveness of 
spatial-multiplexing, resulting in higher data rates.
Smart Wi-Fi 802.11n Multimedia Access Point
802.11n and BeamFlex
A Winning Combination
A fundamentally new approach to Wi-Fi, 802.11n 
exploits advances and new techniques such as 
spatial multiplexing, channel bonding and frame 
aggregation to deliver higher data rates.
While theoretical data rates of 300 Mbps or 
higher are advertised by vendors, actual and 
consistent user throughput is an order of 
magnitude less. This is because current 802.11n 
products don’t make optimal use of these new 
techniques. Ruckus BeamFlex makes it happen.
Dual polarized smart antenna array increases 
• 
the effectiveness of spatial multiplexing
Beamsteering provides active interference 
• 
avoidance to ensure spatial multiplexing and 
the best possible paths used for spatial streams
Signal path selection control and interference 
• 
mitigation make channel bonding likely
Optimizing the path to each client, reduces 
• 
packet loss and better receive sensitivity 
increases effective throughput, enabling more 
frames to be aggregated
