ZoneFlex Smart Wireless LAN (WLAN) fromRuckus Wireless has been selected by Esquire magazine to provide WiFi ( News - Alert) coverage throughout the publishing company’s 7,400-square-foot "Esquire House Hollywood Hills."
Esquire is using the Ruckus WiFi system for its highly successful celebrity/charity event marketing franchise, commonly referred to as "the ultimate bachelor pad," where a series of exclusive celebrity/charity events will take place from September through November, attended by high-profile philanthropic donors, celebrities, Esquire clients and other VIPs.

"Since our goal is to be on the leading edge of technological innovations, we knew we needed something more robust this year -- but without a huge expense. Ruckus was the only solution we found to provide solid coverage across the entire property at a price that was well within our budget."

"As one of the technologies being showcased as an example of cutting-edge innovation, it's important that the Wi-Fi network be as dependable as a wired network. We've built our reputation as pioneers of technology that achieves just that, and we're happy to see it in the spotlight at the Esquire House."
