    Ruckus Wireless as an Unifi alternative?

    Just some notes on powering the 730 APs with unleashed using a POE switch. I have a 7150-C12p switch and it does not support POE bt. However, you can allocate 30+W of power to the port and then force the AP into bt power mode through the unleashed UI. This seems to work fine all all features are...
