Ruckus' Wi-Fi products selected by Cincinnati BellNov 28, 2012 (M2 EQUITYBITES via COMTEX) -- Ruckus Wireless (NYSE:RKUS), a supplier of advanced wireless systems for the mobile Internet infrastructure market, announced yesterday that Cincinnati Bell Inc (NYSE:CBB), a local exchange and wireless provider, has standardised with Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi products and technology to support its fast growing enterprise managed services, Wi-Fi hotspot and emerging metro public access businesses. Financial details of this deal were not available. Cincinnati Bell is now deploying Ruckus ZoneFlex Smart Wi-Fi to support its business customers requiring managed, campus-wide Wi-Fi solutions. It is also considering upgrading their current Wi-Fi hotspots to higher speed 802.11n using Ruckus Wireless Smart Wi-Fi. Reportedly, with Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi, Cincinnati has been able to realise much greater user capacities per access point (AP) with better signal coverage. An adaptive antenna array integrated into every Ruckus Wi-Fi AP allows Cincinnati Bell to deploy less hardware that can support more users at greater distances, Ruckus said.
