1About this Installation Guide

This document provides information on how to add Ruckus WirelessTM ZoneFlexTM 7782,

7782-S, 7782-N and 7782-E 802.11n Outdoor Access Points (APs) to your network. The

7782, 7782-S, 7782-N and 7782-E are collectively referred to in this guide as 7782 APs.

Topics covered in this guide include planning, basic configuring, and installing.

This guide is intended for use by those responsible for installing and setting up network

equipment. Consequently, it assumes a basic working knowledge of local area networking,

wireless networking, and wireless devices.

Using this Installation Guide

The 7782 AP installation is completed with four main steps. Each step includes some

substeps. Figure 1 shows the main steps, and Table 1 includes the substeps.

•7782-N 30-Degree Narrow Sector

•7782-E External Antenna

7782

The 7782 Omni (ordering part number 901-7782-xx01) is best deployed where internal-

antenna lateral beamforming can provide the greatest reach and throughput to a wide

coverage area, or provide the greatest distance between APs in a connecting device. See

Figure 2 for internal-antenna coverage patterns and see Figure 3 for a typical mesh

coverage pattern.
