The ChannelFly dynamic channel management technology in Ruckus APs improves wireless performance by dynamically switching a client to a better channel when the one it’s using starts to degrade. Unfortunately not all client devices can understand Channel Switch Announcements (CSA) coming from AP and as the channel changes, they simply loose the connection and have to connect anew.

Beginning with SmartZone 5.2.1.0.665, it is possible to disable this feature from …

PoE can come in many modes that mean different levels of power. Ruckus AP-s switch off some functionalities (usually IoT and USB) if the level is not maximum needed. Here's a table to describe what power levels there are and then what are the maximum levels needed by Ruckus's indoor WiFi6 AP-s.

Maintaining the integrity of the exterior of buildings is often a concern when installing Wi-Fi devices on them. We offer an example with which a mast with a pipe of about a meter can be erected on a flat roof without damaging the surface, the weight of the stone base is about 40 kg.…

Wi-Fi transmits information in packets of data, which in turn consist of symbols, each encoded with several bits.

The modulation symbol is a phase and sample code of the signal generated by changing the high frequency carrier frequency, which can then be bit-sequenced or demodulated by the receiver, for example, a 16QAM symbol encodes 4 bits in each symbol. Thus, 4 bits are transmitted with each symbol transmission and decoding. …
