RUCKUS CloudPath is a substantial involvement system that delivers secure network access for any user and any device on the network. It can also perform basic LAC functionality to ensure the devices are up to date before joining the network.

The RUCKUS Analytics platform is powered by machine learning and AI. A cloud hosted service for networking analytics and assurance that monitors your entire network, proactively alerting you to any issues.

The RUCKUS IT suite reduces infrastructure spend and simplifies the creation of IoT access networks by connecting Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi IoT end points with a single multi standard wireless access network.

RUCKUS ICX are stackable switches, designed to excel in a wide range of deployment scenarios. From access to core, from 1 gigabit to 100 gigabit, copper or fibre, with or without PoE and with or without multi gigabit and high PoE support, the RUCKUS wireless product line offers a broad range of indoor and outdoor access points with embedded IoT connectivity to fit any budget, performance requirement or deployment scenario.

How to choose the right managed solution to simplify your network

If you are an SME or a single site and require syncing plug and play with a limited IT budget, RUCKUS Unleashed is the best option. Initial set up takes no more than 3 minutes for a fully functioning wired network. You can also choose to use RUCKUS Cloud in this instance as it can be used to give you the advantage of having in-depth switch management with more reporting, and increased security as nothing is hosted on site.

If you are an SME or a single site, the RUCKUS Unleashed solution works perfectly. Its plug and play works with a limited budget and is quick and easy to set up. If you are an MSP and manage multiple different customers, you might opt for RUCKUS Cloud. Not only working on SMB scenarios, it also works on multi campuses, multiple sites, large enterprise or university sized deployments. The advantage of RUCKUS Cloud over Unleashed is it provides in depth reporting, it works and compliments RUCKUS Analytics, and manages all your switches.

SmartZone has two elements. High Scale and Essentials. It is similar to RUCKUS Cloud, but it is your own private network or your own physical controller, giving you full maintenance control including the same benefits of RUCKUS Cloud, whilst integrating with RUCKUS Analytics as well as managing switches. You have full control and ownership of the entire solution, giving you the opportunity to monitor and upgrade the solutions as you see fit. It is tailored to a finance model and can integrate with your own solution SLAs. You can scale up to 40,000 access points and it can be hosted in multiple platforms such as AWS, Azzure, ES6I, KVM and HyperV.

For a truly controller-less solution, RUCKUS Unleashed gives you the ability to manage your entire network from a mobile device or web browser. If you require to offload everything to the public cloud, choose RUCKUS Cloud. For your own controller, whether physical or virtual, and you manage it yourself, choose RUCKUS SmartZone.
