Organizations seeking to deploy IoT solutions face a complex, fragmented ecosystem of standards, devices and services. This complexity often slows or stalls enterprise IoT deployments, due to uncertain return-on-investment. To encourage adoption, many enterprise IoT solution vendors have developed infrastructure silos that address a single use case but don't readily integrate with other silos, and don’t make use of existing infrastructure investments.
An IoT access network addresses these issues by consolidating multiple physical-layer networks into a single converged network. This common network simplifies IoT endpoint onboarding, establishes uniform security protocols and converges IoT endpoint management and policy-setting. In short, an IoT access network enables organizations to more quickly realize benefits from IoT use cases.
The RUCKUS IoT Suite simplifies the creation of IoT access networks through the reuse of LAN and WLAN infrastructure, thus shortening deployment duration and reducing the cost to support multiple IoT solutions.
The edge network is growing in complexity, and IoT only adds to the challenge. At CommScope, our goal is to simplify networking. The CommScope RUCKUS Converged Edge Network brings together Wireless, Wired, and IoT networks into a common network architecture. Our approach simplifies management, provisioning, assurance and security of your converged edge network.
Now, organizations don’t need to avoid IoT because they feel that they don’t have the time, money, or resources to build new, overlay networks just to support a single vendor’s IoT solution. With the CommScope RUCKUS IoT solution organizations leverage the existing RUCKUS access points, RUCKUS switches, and RUCKUS Network Controllers aggregate and backhaul IoT traffic over the existing WiFi infrastructure.
Use one, common infrastructure to simplify IoT deployment regardless of the wireless protocol used by the sensors or devices. A common dashboard allows you see all IoT devices on a single pane of glass. An advanced rules engine allows orchestration across devices regardless of manufacturer.
Network simplification begins with unified management. With SmartZone, IT can take control of both the wired and wireless networks from a common platform. This ensure consistency of policy and security across the entire edge network.
CommScope RUCKUS WiFi Access Points have consistently been recognized for innovation, reliability, and scalability. Now, CommScope is reimaging the way IoT devices are deployed with our integrated IoT capabilities.
Our CommScope RUCKUS ICX family of fixed form-factor switches offer a low-latency, non-blocking architecture that ensures excellent throughput for the most demanding applications and networks. Together, we simplify network set-up and management, enhance security, minimize troubleshooting and make upgrades easy.
The converged edge network is about bringing together the management of both the LAN and wireless LAN (WLAN) environments, creating organizational and financial savings, and providing users a better experience. At CommScope, we have identified five key advantages for pursuing a converged edge network.
IoT makes possible improved guest and staff safety, building automation, asset tracking, and personalized guest experiences. But you can’t manage separate networks for everything.
Intelligent buildings promise new levels of energy efficiency, occupant health and visitor productivity through innovative uses of highly connected, autonomous systems that support connected entry solutions, lighting, occupancy sensors and personalization tools.
