802.11 is a family of wireless standards created by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). 802.11n is the older version of Wi-Fi, launched in 2009. It improved over previous versions of Wi-Fi with multiple radios, advanced transmit and receive techniques, and the option to use 5 GHz spectrum—all of which translate to a data rate of up to …
All 802.11ac Wave2 (with Multi User Mimo support) Ruckus base stations launched in recent years will receive an update to the WPA3 security standard in the near future. This standard addresses the current security risks associated with the WPA3 standard. The problem with PSK has been to guess simple passwords. A common weakness has been the vulnerability of the protocol handshake algorithm.
WPA3 staff will use a new authentication algorithm: …
IT support people and system administrators have another sophisticated technology in their hands to captivate user interest. But why is it so complicated? If the following is boring to read, give this text to your IT manager, but I still recommend that you read it, because I have been dedicated to this topic for 20 years …
What is changing in everyday life with the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard? After all, the speed does not increase 10x higher. It is much more important to use the radio spectrum (air) much more efficiently. The Wi-Fi standard was originally created in 1997 when few believed in the survival of the technology, but some features such as CSMA/CA algorithms, or channel idle control, have their roots in this decade-long history.
So …
Recommendations of Ruckus APs for different environments, it is worth paying attention to the choice, because larger APs have a more complex BeamFlex+ smart antenna solution, which penetrates better through the walls and has also more electromagnetic immunity. It is also worth looking at the maximum number of customers.
Ruckus APs are managed in the Cloud, Smartzone controllers, Zonedirector, Unleashed (up to 50 APs and 1000 clients, doesn't need license).…
Many Ruckus products come with a term "Limited Lifetime Warranty". In this post, we'll talk more about what exactly it is, what are the restrictions and what the law is.
The Limited Lifetime Warranty comes with Ruckus ICX Switches, Unleashed Indoor APs, ZoneFlex Indoor APs, and ZoneDirector devices. Outdoor APs, SmartZone SZ-100 and SZ-300 are covered by a "1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty".
The Limited Lifetime Warranty (LLW) applies only …
We conducted tests in our office to assess the capacity of the MESH network. To do this, we chose two Ruckus R610 APs, which we usually use to create a WiFi network at various events. You can read more about this AP here:
https://blog.3kgroup.ee:443/ruckus-r610-ac-wave-2-3x33/.
Mesh capability is available on all Ruckus APs except the 300 series APs.
For the test, we created a Mesh network between the two R610s, …
Ruckus IoT server has 1.4 software version, which we have also now tested in the 3K office. We conducted integration tests for Zigbee/BLE equipment from various IoT equipment manufacturers.
The IoT server is an interface between standard local IoT devices and the Internet. With the help of an IoT server, Ruckus Wi-Fi base stations become an IoT gateway network that is secure and easy to connect. If Ruckus Wi-Fi is …
Ruckus has three new 7150-series ICX switches, which are very suitable for building smaller networks or as the last link in a larger network - an access switch.
The ICX7150-C08P is the smallest ICX switch, with a total of 10 ports, 8 of which are downlink ports with speeds of up to 1000 Mbs and PoE + capability. In addition, there are two uplink ports, one 100/1000 Mbs RJ45 …
Although MESH connections have been in use since the second generation of Wi-Fi, it's only with the advent of the 6G 802.11ax standard has a new quality emerged. MESH connections are required for temporary networks or in cases where the cable network cannot be transported to all locations and it is necessary to expand the coverage area in just one part of the room, but the cabling work is complicated. …
