In this blog series, I wanted to explore what a Wireless First strategy looks like for a number of customer verticals. Universities have extensive demands on their wireless infrastructure. Should Wi-Fi be the technology of choice for Universities?

For a while now Cisco has had both the Meraki and Cisco product sets. While these both have a part to play in the market and in meeting customer requirements, the strategy from Cisco is really to combine these two technologies. In this blog, we’ll take a look at how Cisco is combing the best from their Meraki and Cisco product sets.

Cisco are massively moving the needle on how future networks will be designed and deployed. Cisco SDA Fabric is a term we're going to be hearing a whole lot more about. Why change something that works? In this blog, we’ll take a look at that exact question.

Cisco Spaces is a location aware, task management cloud-based application.

Cloud networking is a term used to describe how network equipment is configured, controlled and monitored. Cloud networking disconnects the network engineers from needing a console cable to get network equipment up and running and allows for remote configuration, ahead of the deployment to take place and the config be deployed to the equipment when it[…]

The Cisco 9104 AP is designed for a particular use case – generally that’s stadiums. The AP has a high-gain antenna with built in AP. There are some features we’ve not seen before on a Cisco AP – dynamically configurable antennas, with the advantage of a third radio.

Cisco Meraki Access Points are a great tool to simplify the implementation of your network - cloud controlled, easy meshing and simple installation. They look great - and offer high speeds. Coupled with auto code upgrades.. what's not to love?

It’s probably fair to say that most of us don’t enjoy dealing with any kind of licensing fulfilment because the experience can be somewhat daunting. Cisco offers the use of Cisco Smart Licensing as a way to ease the burden of network device licensing.

We've been building Wi-Fi networks to meet Real Time Location Grade (RTLS) for quite a while now. Depending on how the APs are laid out, and the network tuned, typical accuracy achieved can be sub 5m in location accuracy. Any location solution based upon Wi-Fi has some variance in accuracy between areas though. Some RTLS vendors support the use of[…]

Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) is an Enterprise grade AAA product that has been around for seven years.
