Enterprise Wi-Fi and cable-network equipment maker (formerly CommScope) after selling its cable/connectivity business to Amphenol.
Enterprise Wi-Fi and cable-network equipment maker (formerly CommScope) after selling its cable/connectivity business to Amphenol.
Sells network hardware mainly through distributors and resellers, with RUCKUS Wi-Fi equipment bundled with software licences and support, and cable-access equipment sold directly to cable operators. Its shape changed when Amphenol bought the connectivity and cable business, leaving a much smaller company, with proceeds used largely to reduce debt.
Moat: narrow (installed base, brand). RUCKUS has an established enterprise Wi-Fi installed base, but Cisco and HPE Aruba are far larger rivals.
Headquarters: Richardson, Texas · Founded: 1976 · Employees: 4,500
