Ruckus Wireless (News – Alert) claimed that the newly released ZoneFlex 7762-AC and 7762-S-AC are the industry’s first 802.11n outdoor access points (APs) featuring purpose built capabilities for the service provider market including integrated AC power, optional fiber interface and support for up to 500 clients per AP.

Operators, by deploying the new Wi-Fi access points, can realize consistent, high performance, extended coverage and multimedia support and seamlessly deliver public access, data offload and wireless backhaul.

The ZoneFlex 7762 APs uniquely combines dynamic beamforming, adaptive meshing and the power of 802.11n to enable a new level of outdoor performance at the lowest cost. Built to work on harsh outdoor conditions, these APs can help users build a smart Wi-Fi environment that offers extended range, simple deployment, reliable connectivity and consistent performance at range.

With so much data traffic clogging cellular networks, operators are looking to re-architect by offloading data traffic to Wi-Fi and certain core processing functions to the edge of their mobile networks.

Unlicensed Wi-Fi is unreliable and uncontrollable but the robust 802.11n outdoor APs from Ruckus deliver range and reliability by leveraging the company’s own BeamFlex adaptive antenna array technology. Operators can add capacity, coverage and performance to their network for supporting the new class of higher speed subscribers.

Ruckus explained that BeamFlex consists of a smart, compact antenna array with multiple elements, which can be combined in real time to form unique antenna patterns. The technology is capable of picking the optimum antenna pattern for each communicating device in real time, while actively avoiding interference and minimizing noise to nearby networks and devices.

“With a full range of patented Smart Wi-Fi technologies integrated into each device, the 7762-AC – well suited for small cell wireless backhaul and mobile data offload – offers the industry’s best range, reliability and capacity over other 802.11n outdoor AP alternatives at a much more attractive price point,” stated Rob Mustarde, vice president of Marketing for Ruckus Wireless.

The company added that the ZoneFlex 7762-AC and 7762-S-AC are priced starting at $2,499 and come with a one-year warranty.

In other news, Ruckus Wireless recently announced that its ZoneFlex Smart Wireless LAN (WLAN) system has seen broad, worldwide adoption by many of the busiest airports around the globe looking to bring reliable, high-performance Wi-Fi connectivity to highly trafficked, high-density passenger terminals.

Belden announced the launch of its outdoor and direct burial analog audio, plenum jacketed and plenum Banana Peel snake cable lines.

It was revealed in a release that the new Brilliance Audio Snake Cables feature a robust construction which also has superior flexibility making it highly suitable for indoor and outdoor environmental conditions.

Belden, specializing in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, provides the Brilliance Audio Snake Cables for in-the-field and permanent installation to connect multiple channels in low-level (microphone) and high-level componentry.

The applications where they can be used include console board equipment for recording, post production and sound system installations, said officials.

Most useful where ruggedness is imperative, the product line includes three cable series, namely waterblocked, plenum, and Banana Peel constructions. Featuring various benefits the cable series sports a foil shield that is bonded to the jacket. This construction enables them to maintain high performance with the ease of termination.

The waterblocked product series, used in direct burial and suitable for outdoor installations, features six standard product codes with constructions ranging from 1 to 12 pairs. This makes the product more advantageous when compared to gel installations.

Belden officials added that the plenum product series offers nine product codes including the recent additions of 4, 6, 8 and 12-pair constructions with an overall jacket. No heat shrink is needed as the pairs are individually jacketed facilitating field termination.

The patented Banana Peel construction offers 2, 4, and 6-pair audio snake cables forming easy-to-install composite cables. The component cables are bundled and affixed to a center spline, so overall jacket is not required. Easy to install, the Banana Peel design needs less effort and time compared to traditional jacketed products.

Last week we told we about aMagic Cable Trio, a 3-in-1 USB charge/sync wire with connectors for micro USB, mini USB, and Apple inclination (like a iPhone and iPad).

I desired a idea, though not a $19.99 price. Thankfully, sagacious reader Russell speckled a most cheaper choice on eBay: a3in1 Universal USB Data Cable Adaptor for Apple Android SmartPhone Cell Phone.

Not utterly as glamorous-sounding as “Magic Cable Trio,” we extend you, though eventually it’s a same product: a USB wire with a customary USB block during one finish and 3 renouned connectors during a other: micro USB, mini USB, and Apple iDevice.

That means we should be means to sync and/or assign only about any tool in your bag.

This cable, sole buy Hong Kong-based BossKnow, looks like a Frankenstein chronicle of a customary Apple cable: a mini-USB and micro-USB connectors poke out from possibly side of a 40-pin iDevice connector. It’s really not as superb as a Magic Cable Trio, that uses nested plugs.

On a other hand, a 3in1 Universal is labelled during $2.87–shipping included! (I overtly don’t know how a businessman can make any income on this, as only a shipping from Hong Kong contingency cost some-more than that. But who am we to argue?)

Thus, if we were meddlesome in a Magic Cable Trio though didn’t wish to bombard out $20, here’s your possibility to get some-more or reduction a same thing for 1/6 a price. I’m sold!

If there’s a censure we have about a many keyboard folio cases for a iPad, it’s that a keyboard is sized to compare a prolonged dimension of a device. What that means is that a keyboard is customarily utterly cramped, and a quick touch-typist like me finds that he or she is constantly creation errors. Up to this point, we haven’t found a keyboard, other thanApple’s Wireless Keyboard, that’s even remotely serviceable with a iPad. Now Logitech has introduced a US$129.99Fold-Up Keyboard, a full-sized gentle Bluetooth keyboard that protects your iPad 2 as well.

Design

Think of a Fold-Up Keyboard as a Smart Cover-compatible behind bombard for a iPad 2 and you’re median there. Now supplement a full-sized keyboard that magically pops out of a behind of this device and swivels into place in front of a device as a column binds it up, and we have a Fold-Up Keyboard.

The keyboard facilities flattering many all of a keys in a places that you’d design to find them on a Apple Wireless Keyboard. Rather than a apart quarrel of duty keys, however, a fn pivotal works with a series quarrel of a Fold-Up Keyboard to yield iPad-specific functions. Those functions are home, search, slideshow, toggle onscreen keyboard on/off, rewind, play/pause, fast-forward, 3 volume buttons (mute, middle, loud), and capacitate close screen.

There’s usually one symbol on a keyboard that is used to put it into discoverable mode for Bluetooth pairing. Three small LEDs nearby that symbol prove that a keyboard is charging or has a low battery, that a keyboard is pairing with an iPad, and that a keyboard is in caps close mode.

Logitech includes a customary USB to micro-USB wire for charging. The keyboard takes about 3 hours to charge, though lasts for about 500 hours of typing. No AC adapter is included, that means that we possibly need to use your iPad’s adapter or another USB adapter for charging.

Functionality

Putting a iPad 2 into a Fold-Up Keyboard is a cinch. Unlike many behind shells that I’ve used, a Fold-Up Keyboard indeed has a automatic fasten that thatch a device into place. Once it’s in there, all we need to do is press another small symbol that unlocks a keyboard and start maturation a “stand.” As we do that, a keyboard halves pitch into place and form a far-reaching and gentle keyboard. Opening a keyboard also powers it up; shutting a device turns off a keyboard. Be certain to check out a gallery next for images of a keyboard folding into place.

Logitech Fold-Up Keyboard for iPad 2

Closing a device is only a matter of grabbing a ends of a keyboard and pulling them towards a iPad. As a keyboard folds back, a mount slides down and a whole thing folds into a rather thick (.75 inch) package. If we already have an Apple Smart Cover for your iPad 2, we can use it for full insurance of your device.

As for a keyboard itself, it has about a same volume of pivotal transport as a Apple Wireless Keyboard and a identical feel. The keys are about a same distance as those on a Apple keyboard and

â–  Compact and portable cord set to contribute to proliferation of electric vehicles

LS Cable & System (Chairman & CEO: Christopher Koo) announced on the 29th that the Company has completed development of an electric vehicle cord set for household use as the first in Korea. Directly connected to power outlets in residential and commercial buildings as well as private homes, this cord set supplies 3.3kW of power to electric vehicles. Based on Hyundai Motor Company’s BlueOn, it takes 6 hours for a full charge that can provide about 140km of driving.

Because this cord set is so compact and well designed it can be installed at a wide variety of locations and installation is cheaper than conventional products. Therefore, LS Cable & System anticipates that this charger will help popularize sales of electric vehicles. In addition, the charger can be conveniently carried around and used whenever necessary in any location where power is supplied.

The cord set satisfies all International Electric Commission specifications and requirements, so LS Cable & System has now climbed to an advantageous position for entry into the global market, which is currently dominated by Voltec of the U.S. and Toyota of Japan.

In 2010, LS Cable & System successfully implemented Korea’s first high-speed electric vehicle charging infrastructure for the Korea Environment Corporation. In addition, the Company has installed and is operating electric vehicle chargers inside the Smart Grid Test-bed project located on Jeju Island. Moreover, through cooperation with Seoul Metro, the Company has developed an electric vehicle charging system that taps into the commuter railway power network.

The Ministry of Knowledge Economy is implementing a policy to replace 10% of Korea’s compact car market and 20% of the passenger vehicle market with electric vehicles by 2015 and 2020 respectively. In addition, the ministry has set out a plan to help put one million electric vehicles on the road supported by 2.2 million chargers by 2020. In line with the expectation that government-initiated projects for charging infrastructures will be initiated, LS Cable & System has assertively embarked upon activities to win contracts. At the same time, the Company is planning a wide range of marketing activities targeting carmakers, construction companies and local governments.
