Scalable Network Controller for Mid-Sized Enterprises
Need a more cost-effective way to scale and managed your wired and wireless network? We hear you. The SmartZone 100 (SZ100) network controller lets you grow your without wasting money on idle redundant controller capacity.

Want more control over the end-user experience? We’ve got you covered. Manage quality of experience with intuitive, visual troubleshooting and analytics tools.

Together with Ruckus access points and switches you get scale, control and deployment flexibility and your users get a consistently great experience—fast, reliable and secure.

Scale Your Network, Fast
SmartZone 100 provides everything needed to easily scale an enterprise wired and wireless network.

- A rack-mountable 1U appliance with multiple GbE and 10GbE ports installs easily and supports your first 1,024 APs and 50 switches.
- Active/active 3+1 clustering scales your network to 3,000 APs and 150 switches.
- Connect as many as 60,000 clients and tunnel end-user traffic to the controller or break out traffic locally.

Deliver a Better Quality of Experience
The SZ100 simplifies workflows and gives IT the tools to ensure a better end-user experience.

- Visual Connection Diagnostics lets IT troubleshoot client connection problems in real-time, helping to pinpoint the stage at which the failure occurs.
- Ruckus “super-KPIs” enable IT to more quickly detect and react to potential user experience degradation.
- SmartZone streaming APIs push in near real-time the full array of Ruckus network data, statistics and alarms to IT’s preferred analytics tool with no fidelity loss and no need to create a firewall pinhole.
- Easily monitor networks with a customizable interface and view topology maps, network element health, cluster health, traffic analysis, spectrum analysis and more.

Control Costs
Reduce infrastructure expense with flexible licensing and simple license management.

- Lower your TCO by purchasing licenses in single-AP and single-switch increments rather than doing so in wasteful volume tiers.
- Easily migrate licenses to other SmartZone network controllers if network requirements change.
- Move AP licenses between SmartZone controllers within and across any cluster.

Deploy Great Wi-Fi
Ruckus is known for exceptional Wi-Fi performance even under the most challenging network conditions. This means exceptionally happy users.
