Easy to manage wired and wireless networks

Digital lifestyles sustained through mobile devices and applications, allow everyone to be more connected and productive, but concurrently intensify demands on operators, service providers and enterprises to improve network performance.

Ruckus SmartZone network controllers simplify the complexity of scaling and managing wired switches, and wireless access points through a common interface to support private-cloud network-as-a-service (NaaS) offerings in addition to general enterprise networks.

All physical and virtual SmartZone appliances support network configuration, monitoring, provisioning, discovery, planning, troubleshooting, performance management, security and reporting. SmartZone’s single, user-friendly web interface handles network visibility from the wireless edge to the network core and enabled IT administrators to perform day to day management tasks, troubleshoot user connectivity problems and define and monitor user and application policies without requiring advanced network skills and CLI expertise.
