RUCKUS Networks AI-Driven solutions bring generative, edge, intent-based AI and Nokia's next-generation optical LAN solution to its industry-leading Wi-Fi 7 portfolio to optimize enterprise networks CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in network connectivity, today announced several new AI-driven solutions from RUCKUS Networks that integrate generative, edge, and intent-based AI features with its industry-leading Wi-Fi 7 portfolio to achieve new level of simplicity, automation and customization in enterprise networks. Additionally, RUCKUS Networks and Nokia are previewing a joint enterprise solution that brings together Nokia's next-generation optical LAN solution with RUCKUS Wi-Fi APs and the RUCKUS One® platform. Delivering a fraction of the complexity, space, energy and costs of a traditional copper-based LAN, Nokia's Optical LAN provides a future-ready, green, high-capacity network alternative for in-building and campus connectivity. The RUCKUS One® platform will be used to manage Nokia's optical LAN network, providing enterprises with a single AI-driven platform that can help enhance multi-access network assurance, service delivery and business intelligence. The joint solution will be launched later this year but is available for preview at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) event taking place in Barcelona, booth 2F40. "Optical LAN is the right technology for enterprise connectivity today and in the future," stated Geert Heyninck, General Manager of Broadband Networks at Nokia. "Not only is it future-proof, but it can also provide significant operational and sustainable benefits that collectively can help reduce TCO by 50%. But the network is only one part of the enterprise puzzle. We've teamed up with RUCKUS Networks to offer businesses a complete solution combining our high-speed optical LAN with their advanced Wi-Fi 7 and AI platform. This future-proof, easy-to-use, green solution is perfect for industries like hospitality, higher education, campus networks, and more." "AI is the driving force behind modern networks. Our new range of solutions takes the latest AI innovations and blends them seamlessly into our leading portfolio of Wi-Fi access points to provide a truly enterprise-grade platform that enables new network efficiencies while making management and automation as smart and simple as possible," stated Bart Giordano, SVP and president, Networking Intelligent Cellular and Security Solutions, CommScope. "At MWC, we're showcasing these solutions and previewing what AI can do in a fiber-powered enterprise Wi-Fi solution with Nokia. This is the future of intelligent enterprise networks and it showcases how we continue to push the boundaries of AI-driven network innovation."
