Contact UsThe RUCKUS SmartCell Insight (SCI) network analytics and reporting software provides comprehensive visibility into your RUCKUS network across a variety of dimensions — including network inventory, client health, airtime utilisation, switch details, access point details, and more. Designed with large-scale service providers and enterprise networks in mind, SCI enables you to keep on top of a wide range of key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with tens or hundreds of terabytes of data traffic crossing up to 100,000 APs each day.
SCI software collects data from wireless controllers, APs, clients, and applications to support both standard out-of-the-box reports and deeply customised dashboards. The Data Explorer feature makes it straightforward to tailor reports to your organisation's specific requirements — using an intuitive drag-and-drop interface that requires no specialist data engineering skills.
Beyond visibility, SCI actively supports your operations: automatically detecting network anomalies without IT input, accelerating troubleshooting for faster problem resolution, assisting with capacity planning, and integrating with third-party platforms via APIs to extend the value of your broader business intelligence ecosystem.

Automatic Anomaly Detection — No IT Input Required
SCI software automatically establishes a pattern of normal behaviour for each network element. The system requires no configuration or input from IT — it continuously monitors the network and automatically identifies anomalous behaviour in network elements, helping you proactively address issues before they affect service levels.
Data flows from your RUCKUS APs, wireless controllers, wired switches, clients, and applications into the SCI analytics engine. The high-performance big data stack processes this telemetry to serve as the foundation for real-time dashboards, standard reports, capacity planning analysis, and custom Data Explorer views.

Core PlatformAutomatic Anomaly Detection
SCI software automatically establishes a baseline pattern of normal behaviour for each network element — no IT input or manual configuration required. The system continuously monitors for deviation from these baselines, detecting anomalous behaviour proactively so issues can be addressed before they affect user experience or service levels.
At-a-Glance Network Visibility
Comprehensive visibility across network inventory, client health, airtime utilisation, switch details, and access point performance — all from a single dashboard. Top-level summary views provide an immediate picture of network status, with granular drill-down capability to investigate individual devices, clients, or locations as needed.
Wired & Wireless Data Collection
SCI software collects data from wireless controllers, APs, clients, and applications — as well as wired switch infrastructure. Standard reports support the most common operational requirements straight out of the box. Valuable operations and performance data assists in capacity planning and helps organisations make the most of their RUCKUS network infrastructure.
Data Explorer — Custom Dashboards
The Data Explorer feature makes it easy to create customised reports and dashboards focused on the network metrics and trends that matter most to your organisation. An intuitive user interface with drag-and-drop data attributes and panels enables you to create tailored views quickly — without needing specialist data engineering or BI development skills.
Accelerated Troubleshooting
SCI software accelerates network troubleshooting for faster problem resolution by surfacing the data and context needed to identify root causes quickly. Rather than manually querying logs or cross-referencing multiple tools, IT teams get direct visibility into the network elements and client sessions affected — reducing mean time to resolution across the board.
Capacity Planning Support
Operations and performance data collected by SCI directly supports capacity planning decisions. Understand airtime utilisation trends, identify high-demand APs or network segments, and anticipate growth requirements before they become service-affecting. Helps organisations plan infrastructure investments with real network usage data rather than estimates.
Standard Out-of-the-Box Reports
A comprehensive library of standard reports covers the most common operational requirements right out of the box — including network inventory, client health summaries, airtime utilisation by AP or radio, switch details, top applications, and more. Access top-level summary views with the ability to drill down into granular detail for any network element.
Third-Party API Integration
By integrating with third-party platforms via APIs, SCI software increases the value of existing business intelligence tools — bringing powerful data analytics to bear on business and IT challenges as part of a broader data analytics ecosystem. Enables organisations to combine RUCKUS network data with other operational data sources for richer, more actionable insights.
Large-Scale KPI Management
Designed specifically for large-scale service provider and enterprise networks, SCI enables you to manage a wide range of KPIs associated with tens or hundreds of terabytes of data traffic crossing up to 100,000 APs each day. Purpose-built for the data volumes and operational complexity of the largest RUCKUS deployments.
