The combined RUCKUS Networks and Nokia optical-wireless LAN solution is managed end-to-end by the AI-driven RUCKUS One platform. Active trials with multiple Tier-1 providers across North America and Asia, demonstrate strong performance and operational benefits from the solution. These trials validate the architectural advantages of integrating Nokia's Aurelis Optical LAN solution with RUCKUS Network's cloud-managed AI operations solutions.
The integrated plug and play solution addresses a growing need for higher-bandwidth networks to meet the demands of increasing user density, low-latency real-time applications, and next-generation use cases, such as AI. The joint solution creates a robust, intelligent in-building network infrastructure that's simple to manage and scale to the capacity demands needed to support next-generation services -simplifying operations and reducing power consumption and cost.
"The way enterprises connect is changing, and fiber is at the heart of that shift," stated Sandy Motley, President of Fixed Networks at Nokia. "Deepening our partnership with RUCKUS Networks reflects a shared belief that businesses deserve connectivity that's reliable, future-ready, and built around their needs, not just for today, but for what comes next."

By integrating the latest Wi-Fi 7 access points with a future-ready Optical LAN foundation, businesses can modernize their networks today, scale to future needs, and realize numerous operational efficiencies for years to come.
Nokia's Aurelis MF-2 optical switch and modems offer a compact, energy-efficient, high-capacity fiber-based solution for in-building and campus connectivity. Requiring significantly less space and power than traditional LAN, it reduces energy costs by up to 40% and total cost of ownership by 50%. Paired with RUCKUS Networks' industry-leading cloud and wireless products, the combined solution delivers high-performance connectivity and enhanced network assurance to support mobility, IoT, and enterprise digital transformation. Using open APIs, Nokia's Aurelis fiber solution easily integrates with RUCKUS One, an AI-driven network assurance and business intelligence platform.
The joint solution is intended to help telcos, cable operators, managed service providers and LAN providers offer fast, cost-efficient and premium LAN connectivity to diverse enterprise verticals.
"Nokia leads in fiber-based Optical LAN, and RUCKUS has the most complete and proven wireless solutions for enterprise," stated Bart Giordano, SVP and president, RUCKUS Networks. "Together, our technologies are already deployed by more than a thousand enterprises globally, and we're making it easier than ever for customers to quickly transform and effectively scale and manage their networks for the long run."
RUCKUS Networks and Nokia will discuss their combined solution at the FTTH Conference in London, April 14-16.
