Benefits:

Converged IP services
Multiple SSIDs, port-based VLANs and robust authentication options make the ZoneFlex H500 ideal for supporting concurrent IP-based services such as VoIP, IPTV, high-speed Internet access and in-room device connectivity — both wired and wireless.

Additive performance with BeamFlex+
BeamFlex+ adaptive antennas improve Wi-Fi signal quality by adapting to device location and orientation, which is ideal for better performance on handheld mobile devices.

Standalone or centrally managed
The ZoneFlex H500 can be deployed in standalone mode or centrally managed by the RUCKUS ZoneDirector, SmartZone, vSCG and SCG, or RUCKUS FlexMaster systems.

Flexible deployment options
The ZoneFlex H500 requires a single POE cable drop, reducing cabling, switch ports and power sourcing equipment.

Sleek, inconspicuous compact form factor for best aesthetics
Installs into any standard electrical outlet box creating a low profile, secure design and front port access which eliminates unsightly cabling and disruptive furniture placement.

Integrated POE support eliminates more wires
POE out to power devices such as IP-based VoIP phones eliminates the need for more power cords and clutter.
