Keep pace with extreme industrial conditions –
With network solutions from Aruba.

Extreme fluctuations in temperature, permanent humidity, precipitation and other dangers often pose big challenges. How can you ensure a network solution that’s always available, no matter where you are?

With the sturdy access points and switches from Aruba, you’ll gain the security of high performance and reach you can count on, even in extreme conditions in production. The tough APs from Aruba boast water, dust, and humidity resistance, as well as explosion prevention.

Aruba CX4100i switches facilitate connection of IoT systems, APs and user devices at environmental temperatures of -40°C to 70°C. They also provide 60 W PoE supply for APs and IoT sensors, are top-hat-rail compatible, and work with both direct and alternating current.

Ensuring performant Wi-Fi infrastructure in spacious storage and production halls is no easy task. There are many aspects to consider.

• What access points are suitable for your environment?
• How many are needed?
• Where and how do they need to be positioned to ensure optimal Wi-Fi coverage everywhere?

With the Wi-Fi survey packages from Bechtle, you can count on an experienced partner to efficiently tailor the Wi-Fi structure you need in line with your personal requirements. Access to our experienced technicians and professional planning will help you avoid dud investments e.g. having to add additional access points or cabling after the original job.

Existing systems are often isolated in their respective management systems and managed independently of one another. This leads to a huge consumption of time and resources. Without the necessary information, it’s incredibly difficult to assess whether an error message is coming from a branch office, the data centre, LAN, WLAN or WAN.

With the cloud-based management solution Aruba Central, you can can control and manage all of your network operations from a single source. Thanks to AI and context-based error management, solutions can be found up to 90% faster. Configuration assistants such as zero touch provisioning and other functions simplify the installation of new locations or devices.

The way into the cloud is often stalled by old production machines that need to be managed and controlled locally, with outdated operating systems that pose a security risk in terms of integration into a modern network infrastructure.

Aruba dynamic segmentation is a reliable solution to simplify and secure your wired and wireless networks. By consistently implementing uniform policies, data traffic can be controlled and access can be segmented. This allows both older production machines to be integrated into the network and new IoT connectivity requirements to be better met.

IoT systems such as monitoring systems, barcode scanners or modern production machines are all susceptible to attacks as they only seldom receive updates and most often don’t have authentication methods. Besides that, integration of new IoT devices demand a lot of administration work, as each requires their own network connection.

Aruba access points are not only capable of managing both old and new IoT devices, but also enable reliable provisioning of location-based services. Aruba also ensures the highest level of security for your IoT devices and infrastructure with tunnelling, dynamic segmentation, policy management and anomaly analytics.
