Managed SD

Wireless LAN

Reinvent your Wi-Fi with a customer
experience that adapts to your users.

 

Teach your Wi-Fi to think for itself.

Do you know how well your Wi-Fi is performing? Until now, uptime and signal strength were about the only metrics available. Managed Software Defined Wireless LAN (SD WLAN) is a first-of-its-kind solution, combining self-learning technology, innovative location-based services, detailed analytics and proactive tools for responding to issues.

You get deep insight into the user experience. Users get Wi-Fi that grows smarter the more they use it. And since it’s managed by our network experts, we’re with you every step—from planning and implementation to ongoing management and upgrades.

Talk to us about how you can make your Wi-Fi smarter and more efficient.

What is Managed SD WLAN?

Managed SD WLAN blends intelligent, cloud-based and Bluetooth-enabled Wi-Fi with virtual location-based services that learn from your employees and customers. It gives you unprecedented insight into the root cause of disruptions across the network down to individual devices and applications.

How does Managed SD WLAN work?

Managed SD WLAN uses native artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning—delivered through a patented, purpose-built cloud platform and enterprise-grade access points—to deliver a totally user-centric Wi-Fi experience. We take care of it all, with one team to design, implement and manage the entire network, end to end.
