Ruckus ZoneFlex H510 802.11AC Integrated Wall Switch
The Ruckus ZoneFlex H510 is the industry’s first Wave 2 802.11ac wired and wireless wall switch using Ruckus’ patented BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna technology to deliver high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi in an ultra-sleek, low-profile design that can be discretely installed over a standard electrical junction box. Ideal for offering converged services in hotel guest rooms, student residences, and multi-dwelling units, the ZoneFlex H510 provides an easy way to offer multiple connections in a single room without multiple cables.
The ZoneFlex H510 supports Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) as a Wave 2 solution and can increase network throughput by transmitting to two Wave 2 clients at the same instant in time. This efficient utilization of the Wi-Fi channel boosts performance for Wave 2 clients but also frees up airtime for all clients, which means even non-Wave 2 clients see a performance benefit.
Ruckus ZoneFlex H510 Key Features

The “mobile device ready” ZoneFlex H510 with BeamFlex+ adapts in real time to client device location and physical orientation, delivering consistent Wi-Fi performance. The BeamFlex+ adaptive antenna system of the ZoneFlex H510 is optimized to deliver best-in-class Wi-Fi coverage and performance in hotel guest rooms and MDU residences.
Equipped with four Ethernet ports for in-room access, the ZoneFlex H510 can be used to connect a range of wired network devices such as IPTV set top boxes, IP telephones, or networked minibars while simultaneously providing dual band 802.11ac wireless LAN coverage. An IEEE 802.3af-compliant Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) port on the H510 allows devices such as IP telephones to be powered directly from the wall switch. The H510 itself may be powered via standard PoE or a DC power adapter.
The ZoneFlex H510 offers maximum flexibility and future-proofed utility. It is designed to securely support future add-on radio modules for wireless connectivity beyond best-in-class Wi-Fi. The cable pathways at the rear, support legacy cabling such as RG6 or CAT3/CAT5. Existing services such as video and voice over Ethernet can co-exist within the same junction box, reducing both installation time and construction costs. The H510 can be deployed as a standalone device or centrally managed by SmartZone, ZoneDirector, or FlexMaster management platforms.
Benefits
- WAVE 2 MU-MIMO Network performance improved by transmitting to multiple clients at the same instant.
- CONVERGED IP SERVICES Multiple SSIDs, port-based VLANs and four Gigabit Ethernet access ports make the ZoneFlex H510 ideal for supporting concurrent IP-based services such as VoIP, IPTV, high-speed Internet access and in-room device connectivity — both wired and wireless
- ADDITIVE PERFORMANCE WITH BEAMFLEX+ BeamFlex+ adaptive antennas improve Wi-Fi signal quality by adapting to device location and orientation, which is ideal for better performance on handheld mobile devices
- MODULAR SUPPORT The H510 has been designed to accommodate snap-on modules for a variety of applications including connectivity beyond Wi-Fi
- STANDALONE OR CENTRALLY MANAGED The ZoneFlex H510 can be deployed in standalone mode or centrally managed by the Ruckus ZoneDirector, SmartZone, or Ruckus FlexMaster systems
- FLEXIBLE DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS The ZoneFlex H510 requires a single cable drop and operates under standard 802.3af PoE, reducing cabling, switch ports and power sourcing equipment
- SLEEK, INCONSPICUOUS COMPACT FORM FACTOR FOR BEST AESTHETICS Installs into any standard electrical outlet box creating a low profile, secure design and front port access which eliminates unsightly cabling and disruptive furniture placement
- INTEGRATED POE SUPPORT ELIMINATES MORE WIRES POE out to power devices such as IP-based VoIP phones eliminates the need for more power cords and clutter
