3. What is Pervasive Performance?
Delivering the most consistent and highest speed
wireless performance possible – anywhere, everywhere,
all the time
Augmenting the
Wi-Fi radio is
the only way
to positively
affect wireless
performance.
Adaptive signal control
Interference mitigation
Capacity-driven channel assignment
Dynamic polarization diversity
Increased signal strength
Network capacity optimization
(airtime fairness, client load balancing, band steering)

7. What’s So Unique?
1. Combined adaptive antennas and transmit beamforming
▪ Better range, stronger signal and higher data rates to clients
2. Adaptive polarization diversity (Tx/Rx)
▪ Better chance to hear and talk to low transmit power clients that
constantly change their orientation
3. Reduced Wi-Fi interference
▪ 50% reduction in interference to neighboring APs
▪ Up to 15dB of interference mitigation (ZoneFlex 7982)
4. Improves mobile client device performance
▪ Higher speeds to single-stream mobile devices, two-stream clients
5. Highest capacity with best price/performance in its class
▪ Aggregate throughput/concurrent clients
