Case Study: AVE Union achieves a 300,000‑sq‑ft personal, secure Wi‑Fi network and seamless 1,000+ device onboarding with RUCKUS Networks

Giving Residents a 300,000-square-foot Personal, Secure Wi-fi Network

AVE Union, a luxury residential community in New Jersey, was struggling with consumer-grade Wi‑Fi that left residents frustrated by slow, unreliable connections, ISP installation delays, and increased daytime traffic from remote work. Management needed a scalable, secure, easy-to-onboard networking model that would improve resident experience, reduce staff time spent on support, and create a competitive amenity for leasing.

The property deployed a RUCKUS enterprise network managed by Intello by TELUS Business—234 access points covering 300,000 sq. ft., SmartZone controllers, and Cloudpath DPSK integrated with the resident portal—to provide VLAN-based personal Wi‑Fi with automated, lease-tied credentials. The rollout onboarded 1,000+ devices in 24 hours with zero help-desk calls, delivered always-on, high-performance connectivity from move-in, freed staff for higher-value work, and established a replicable, brand-differentiating service.
