Ruckus Networks, has announced the general availability of the Ruckus IoT Suite in Asia Pacific. It enables organizations to readily construct a secure IoT access network that consolidates multiple physical-layer IoT networks into a single network.
Suite Consolidates Disparate IoT Networks to Deliver Secure IoT Deployments to Enterprises and Organizations, Speeding Time-to-ROI and Reducing Deployment Costs.
The Ruckus IoT Suite further speeds time-to-return-on-investment (ROI) and reduces deployment cost by allowing for the use of common infrastructure between the wireless local area network (WLAN) and the IoT access network.
“Our Ruckus IoT Suite is geared to support the deployment of multi-vendor solutions that are constrained by today’s siloed, single-purpose IoT networks. We are excited about the possibilities that the Ruckus IoT Suite brings to the table, and look forward to working with our partners and customers to build innovative IoT access networks, and to speed the adoption of IoT services and more,” said Dennis Huang, Director, Product Marketing, Ruckus Networks.
The Ruckus IoT Suite consists of access points (APs) that accommodate Ruckus IoT modules to establish multi-standards wireless access for Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi IoT endpoints; and translate non-Internet protocol (IP) endpoint communications into IP. It also has Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Zigbee and LoRa protocols.
Ruckus SmartZone Controller–A WLAN controller that provides a single management interface for both the WLAN and the IoT access network.
The Ruckus IoT Suite addresses the security concerns through a multi-layered approach, including digital certificates, traffic isolation, physical security and encryption. This is expected to speed up IoT deployments, hereafter. Using a Ruckus IoT access network and solutions from Ruckus IoT ecosystem partners offer benefits to hotels, schools and universities, and smart cities by improving end user experiences.
