The Juniper Mist Cloud uses a modern microservices-based design to bring unparalleled agility, scale, and resiliency to your network. It lowers OpEx and delivers unprecedented insights into network performance, behaviors, traffic patterns, and potential trouble spots by using data science to analyze large amounts of rich metadata collected by Juniper Access Points. Juniper Mist Cloud makes it easy to add or remove new features, implement new enhancements, and deliver bug fixes almost weekly without network disruption. Services scale up or down elastically when they’re needed, eliminating the cost and complexity of monolithic hardware.

Who should deploy the AP64 Access Point?

The Juniper AP64 is an indoor/outdoor Wi-Fi 6E access point and is ideal for areas where you need a high-performance, 6 GHz*-capable access point but don’t require advanced location-based services. The AP64 ensures business continuity and operational efficiency in any environment, including retail curbside, enterprise campus, public venue, outdoor station, and industrial environments.

What are the best use cases for an AP64 Access Point?

As organizations roll out digital transformation initiatives, they should plan for the best possible Wi-Fi performance and a modern cloud architecture to support automation, AI, and more advanced technologies that serve both business services and operations.

Mobile applications and the rapid digitization of industrial operations require high throughput scalable and reliable wireless connectivity. Wi-Fi 6E doubles the available bandwidth by accessing the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands, which were restricted to indoors until recently. The Juniper AP64 is ideal for new industrial use cases intended to:

  • Support bandwidth-intensive worker productivity applications
  • Continually compile data insights from all areas of the warehouse, loading dock, or plant

 

Businesses that are increasing automation by connecting ever more assets, such as IoT devices, sensors and temperature monitors, autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs), and robots, should consider the AP64 for reliable wireless connectivity for users and devices.

The AP64 delivers operational efficiencies and production uptime that make it ideal for warehouses, loading docks, industrial sites, oil and gas facilities, ports, and terminals. The additional spectrum provided by Wi-Fi 6E offers the opportunity to allocate dedicated spectrum for specific applications while also improveing battery efficiency for client devices.

What organizations/companies use the Juniper AP64?

For businesses that rely on indoor/outdoor Wi-Fi to maintain mission-critical connections for devices and people, the introduction of Wi-Fi 6E brings a much needed increase in bandwidth.
