We considered Xirrus but finally selected Ruckus due to a better array
and mesh ability at a much lower price. Includes B, G and N abilities.

We have gone to Ruckus in our dorms due the way the APs handle rogue
devices and other interferences (wireless controllers, remote controls
for tvs, microwaves, wireless printers, etc.) The switch seems to have
dramatically stopped most of our complaints in the dorms.

It is close to the entry-level by Cisco. WAP4410N is an AP that is POE
without being a router. Price is around $150.00 I believe. We used them
when initially expanding our wireless from Extreme 300 APs. We still
have some in smaller areas as we fully transition from Cisco to Ruckus.

We use Ruckus Wireless bridging. Works great in all weather, no hassle

Having looked at your selections as part of a testing group we chose a
completely different vendor.
We found Ruckus to be far superior with abilities, range, ROI and
reliability on par if not better.
Of the two vendor you have shown we found them to be pretty even.

from an airhandler drip pan overflowing right into the AP and the other
