TRUTH OR DARE? Let's Clear the Air Don't get us wrong. We love Pinocchio. But when he rears his ugly nose into our business we get, well....all up IN it. Sometimes things can get a little complex, technical and confusing. Cisco's new whitepaper "All_Beamforming Solutions are not Equal" is at best misleading and at worst mythology. In this paper, Cisco effectively got two things right: 1) they spelled the word "beamforming" properly and 2) they used the appropriate Cisco corporate logo. Cisco is clearly going out of their way to give the impression that Ruckus-patented BeamFlex and digital signal processing (DSP)-based beamforming (often called chip-based transmit beamforming or TxBF) techniques are categorically similar. BeamFlex and TxBF are radically different in function, benefit, and usefulness. Ruckus supports both. Customer have LOTS of choices and can be easily deceived by supplier marketing.
