Discover Why LAN Upgrades Are Crucial for Business Growth

Many businesses today find themselves tethered to outdated equipment that cannot handle modern networking demands. Why is it crucial that they upgrade their access networks? Older wireless access points slow down network performance. Legacy access switches may lack the Power over Ethernet (PoE) capacity needed to support new collaboration tools, IoT devices, and AI. Antiquated network management tools can leave infrastructure vulnerable to attack and unable to handle the growing demands of user and device…

Navigating the Future of Connectivity: Services Opportunities around Cisco’s Wi-Fi 7

Wi-Fi 7 offers a wealth of new services opportunities that go beyond the routine wireless upgrade. Recently, I assisted a local school, where my children attend, as they embarked on a wireless network refresh initiative. As the first school in the Catholic Diocese to upgrade, they sought to replace their outdated patchwork of Wi-Fi 4 and Wi-Fi 5 devices from various manufacturers; this inconsistency in design, performance, and management, is particularly common in various sectors…

Building Your AI Services Practice: Transforming Collaboration in the Age of Intelligence

The AI Revolution: Transforming Business Communication We stand at the threshold of what I believe is one of the most significant transformations in the history of business communications. Artificial intelligence isn’t merely enhancing our collaboration tools – it’s fundamentally reimagining how we connect, communicate, and create value together. For our Cisco Collaboration partners, this moment represents both an extraordinary opportunity and a strategic imperative. AI isn’t just transforming collaboration—it’s redefining it. The real question is:…

Wi-Fi 7’s Multi-Link Operation (MLO) Dissection—from Packets to Performance

There’s a great deal of talk around the capability of Wi-Fi 7 (IEEE 802.11be) to revolutionize the wireless experience. It’s not hype. A key feature that delivers this transformative impact is multi-link operation (MLO). A mandatory and defining component of 802.11be, MLO enables a multi-link device (MLD) to simultaneously operate across multiple frequency bands, including 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz. Access point (AP) and non-AP MLDs learn each other’s MLO parameters and capabilities…

Cisco Access Points among the First to Be Standard-Power Certified by the FCC

It’s an exciting time in the world of Wi-Fi. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) recently approved Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) for service providers. Adding to this momentum, the FCC granted standard-power certification to a range of Cisco Wireless Wi-Fi 6E access points. This means you’ll be able to take full advantage of the 6 GHz band to support your wireless-first strategy. But what exactly is AFC and standard power, who requires it, and how can…
