SUNNYVALE, Calif., Dec. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Ruckus
Networks, an ARRIS company, today announced that the
T811-CM series and E510 outdoor access points (APs)
received Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Vantage Release 2 certification—a
first-of-its-kind recognition from the Wi-Fi Alliance®. This certification
highlights one of Ruckus' core strengths to deliver top performance
Wi-Fi® connectivity and reliability in dense indoor and outdoor
environments.
The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Vantage™ 2 designation is given to
devices that offer the best Wi-Fi experience in airports, stadiums,
offices, campuses, retail locations and service provider-managed
residential networks. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Vantage 2 goes beyond the
original designation by recognizing devices that deliver optimal
performance and efficient use of the Wi-Fi spectrum and other
network resources in dense deployments. Networks can take on
additional clients without impacting already connected clients to
deliver an optimal user experience for everyone. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED
Vantage 2 will make a significant impact by providing the best
Wi-Fi user experience in deployments with dense AP-to-client
connections.
"Ruckus Networks is honored to have our outdoor access points be
the first to receive this certification," said Greg Beach, Vice President of Wireless Products,
Ruckus. "This designation is a clear demonstration of Ruckus'
leadership and innovation in the Wi-Fi industry. We understand the
need for this type of certification as we enter the next phase of
the Wi-Fi industry, and we're proud to be part of the process to
bring Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Vantage 2 to the greater Wi-Fi
community."
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Vantage 2 looks at four components: Wi-Fi
CERTIFIED ac™, Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Passpoint®, Wi-Fi Agile Multiband
and Wi-Fi Optimized Connectivity. Carrier customers have been
asking for Wi-Fi Agile Multiband and Wi-Fi Optimized Connectivity
because they allow them to offload clients to Wi-Fi to free up the
cellular spectrum. With Wi-Fi Agile Multiband and Wi-Fi Optimized
Connectivity, network capacity is increased to provide a higher
quality of service and a better user experience with seamless
roaming and secure connections. They allow more clients on the
network without sacrificing additional performance or diminishing
the user experience.
Ruckus has been collaborating in Wi-Fi Alliance on Wi-Fi
Optimized Connectivity and Wi-Fi Agile Multiband. The company was
involved with the original specification and testing, conformance
events, and helped spearhead efforts to get the standard finalized
and released. The standard demanded implementing complex protocols
that required industry-wide collaboration.
