Announcement Details § First multimedia WLAN system purpose-built for SMB and hot zone markets Zone. Flex 2942 § Three new products § Zone. Flex 802. 11 g, n access points § Zone. Director central control system § Flex. Master remote management § Three unique breakthroughs § Network Beam. Flex § Minute Config § Unmatched price/value solution Zone. Director 1000

What’s the Problem? No Real WLAN Solution Exists for the Middle Market ENTERPRISE § OPEX sensitive § Optimized for § Multiple switches § Elaborate security § 100 s to 1000 s of users SOHO § Price sensitive § Optimized for § Single AP §<10 users SMB and Hot Zone § Value sensitive § Optimized for § Little or no IT staff § Multiple APs § 100 s users § Increasing need for multimedia

Introducing Zone. Flex Simple-to-Use, Industrial-Strength WLANs § Effortless everything § Pluggable, meshable, easy to install/expand § Wizard-based configuration § Automatic client administration § Advanced security simplified § Best Wi-Fi on the planet § WLAN-wide optimum signal path selection § WLAN-wide interference avoidance § WLAN-wide automatic RF coordination § Unmatched price/value § Unprecedented CAPEX savings § Lowest OPEX § Breakthrough feature/functionality

Important Breakthroughs Network Beam. Flex™ Minute Config™ Unmatched price/value

First-of-its-Kind Smart Wi-Fi Self Learning, Self Optimizing, Self Healing Wi-Fi Antenna System § Patented Beam. Flex™ beam-steering antenna § § § Directional elements add range, reject interference Combined elements to provide extended coverage Self-learning software selects best combo in real time Maximizes performance Placement/orientation indifferent Completely compatible with all 802. 11 devices § Proven in over 1 million AP installations § Already deployed by 200 service providers worldwide § Acclaimed for superior coverage, video-worthy performance N antenna elements 2 N-1 unique beam patterns

§ Beam. Flex antenna directs Wi-Fi signals to clients § Automatically adapts to moves, adds and changes § Automatically rejects Interference § Steers signals around impenetrable obstacles § Beam. Flex antennas make “good neighbors” Zone. Fle x AP Metal Wall How Beam. Flex Works Fewer APs reach farther, faster, for more users AUTOMATICALLY!

Network Beam. Flex Zone. Flex Mesh Simplifies WLAN Deployment and Expansion § Add capacity and coverage as needed § No new Ethernet cables to APs § Auto topology with Beam. Flex path selection algorithm § Self-organizing/self healing § Auto RF: beam-steering, centralized channel and power coordination § Secure encrypted backhauls § 10 APs per wireless cluster § Three hop max in a tree-structured mesh § 802. 11 g, n support Hotel

Effortless Configuration In 5 Minutes or Less

Simplified Robust Security § The Problem: Provisioning secure wireless access § Single pre-shared key is not secure (e. g. employee leaving requires changing key for all employees) § 802. 1 x is an overkill and not affordable for SMBs § No IT resource to administer unique key per employee § The Solution: Auto administered dynamic PSK § Automatic provisioning of unique encryption key to each user/device § No manual client configuration § Highly secure: unique 63 -byte pass-phrase per user § Easily deactivated when employee leaves § New key can be generated periodically § Configurable per WLAN

How Dynamic PSK Works 1. First time user connects to Ethernet port Zone. Flex 2942 2. User specifies URL to be automatically configured for WLAN access 3. Once authenticated, Zone. Director autoprovisions the requisite WLAN settings and a unique, dynamic PSK in user’s wireless settings 4. Key is bound to both user and device until invalidated RADIUS/AD Zone. Director Router 5. User can now connect securely to the WLAN IDS Internet

The Zone. Director 1000 § First centralized multimedia WLAN control platform § Built for simplicity and robustness § Network, RF, security and location management all-in-one § Internal authentication database, seamless AD & RADIUS integration § Customizable management dashboard § AP heat map § Controls up to 50 APs § Standards-based CAPWAP § Automatic redundancy

Zone. Flex 2942 11 b/g Multimedia AP § Business class Beam. Flex § High density of mobile users § Optimum performance with variety of client devices § Advanced multimedia business Qo. S § § Per-user rate limiting enables tiered services Precision per-user, per-traffic class queues Automatic traffic classification and tagging Qo. S policies configurable per WLAN (SSID) § 20 concurrent Vo. IP calls, 50+ data clients § Supports Network Beam. Flex meshing 12 antenna elements provide 4000+ unique antenna patterns Up to 7 d. Bi gain, 18 d. B interference rejection

Unprecedented Price/Value § Purpose-built for SMB and hot zones § Simple, IT-Lite § Complete feature set § Competitors simply re-package complex enterprise bundles § Entry level solution starts at under $2 K § Channel friendly § More budget for value-added services § Hooks for application integration § Multimedia, eg: video conferencing, surveillance, ad insertion § Tiered access § Reduced integration time and resources
