The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly expanding and finding increasing use in various industries, including healthcare and retail. It provides valuable benefits such as improved security and cost savings through the use of new sensor technologies.

These sensors enable capabilities like enhanced inventory management and product improvement, simplifying networks, reducing costs, and optimizing resources. Additionally, they introduce new processes and technologies like automation.

The applications of IoT are diverse, ranging from remote sensor data collection in agricultural fields to providing internet access for moving trains. Key products in this area include Heavy Duty Access Points (Wi-Fi or URWB), wireless backhaul models, power injectors, adapters, and mounting accessories, rugged AP and client (URWB) for moving machines and vehicles, edge compute appliance for URWB, and DNA-C and IoT Operations Center.

The Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul (URWB) stands out for its high-speed mobility, low latency, and carrier-grade availability, making it suitable for assets that are constantly on the move. Cisco’s “Industrial Wireless (IW) Service” offers cloud-based scalable provisioning and management of IW devices, ensuring secure and efficient operations even in offline environments.

The company’s industrial solutions with robust support for extreme environmental conditions and advanced networking capabilities enable businesses to effectively optimize their IoT infrastructure. As the IoT landscape continues to evolve, Cisco remains at the forefront, delivering innovative and reliable hardware to meet the growing demands of connected industries.
