Juniper access points combine WiFi, Bluetooth and location based services in one device and work without a physical or virtual controller. Management is handled by the Mist cloud platform with AI support.
Location services via WiFi and Bluetooth
The access points integrate location based services with Bluetooth and WiFi. This enables precise positioning inside buildings and services and security measures built on it. Use cases range from retail to workflows in hospitals.
Operation without a controller
Instead of a physical or virtual controller, the access points use the cloud. Mist AI manages the network with machine learning and ensures stable connectivity and a consistent user experience. Complex configurations are largely eliminated.
Proactive analysis and security
The Mist platform provides insight into the state of the network and resolves detected problems automatically. This relieves IT teams. The AI also detects anomalies and initiates preventive measures before a threat can cause damage.
