Why should you use Ruckus Planner?
Ruckus AP’s are easier for planning.. Resellers can verify with 3rd party tool
Verify with the tool to save costs for properly designed WLAN Money and time may be wasted on implementing inappropriate hardware incorrectly
The wireless LAN may never work properly resulting in frustrated users
Help Resellers to validate Quotation
3
What must you consider before any WLAN design?
Understand the business needs of the wireless LAN What will the WLAN be used for? Bandwidth & Roaming requirements
Determine signal coverage and control Where RF coverage should and should not be
Understand and meet any security requirements Regulatory requirements Type and classification of data being transferred

Ruckus Planner Powered by AirMagnet
802.11a/b/g/n WLAN design & modeling based on building materials and environment
Design networks before any physical AP roll-out or building is built
Ideal tool for estimating network deployment budgets
Choose your network migration strategies
Calculate and optimize AP count, layout & configuration
Create Bill-of-Materials report
Specifically Designed with Ruckus Antennas
5
Quick and Professional WLAN Modeling
Import floor map of the site Draw building constructions and environmental obstructions on the floor map
Manually place APs or let Planner automatically place it on the floor map
View coverage maps Generate a “Bill-of-materials” report
6
Simple & Flexible Design Interface
Built-in library of materials, environments and obstructions Walls, doors, windows, cubicles, offices, elevators, warehouse environments, etc.
Create and add customized environments and obstructions
