IoT

Aruba Instant supports IoT Internet of Things. IoT refers to the internetworking of devices that are embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity features allowing data exchange over the Internet. applications based on Wi-Fi Wi-Fi is a technology that allows electronic devices to connect to a WLAN network, mainly using the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands. Wi-Fi can apply to products that use any 802.11 standard. (for example: Wi-Fi Wi-Fi is a technology that allows electronic devices to connect to a WLAN network, mainly using the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands. Wi-Fi can apply to products that use any 802.11 standard. tracking), BLE Bluetooth Low Energy. The BLE functionality is offered by Bluetooth® to enable devices to run for long durations with low power consumption. (for example: asset tracking or sensor monitoring), ZigBee and third-party protocols over USB Universal Serial Bus. USB is a connection standard that offers a common interface for communication between the external devices and a computer. USB is the most common port used in the client devices. -extension by providing the connection layer using Aruba APs. IoT Internet of Things. IoT refers to the internetworking of devices that are embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity features allowing data exchange over the Internet. devices can send or receive data over the built-in radios of Aruba APs or supported third party radios connected over USB Universal Serial Bus. USB is a connection standard that offers a common interface for communication between the external devices and a computer. USB is the most common port used in the client devices. to the third party servers.

IoT refers to the internetworking of devices that are embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity features allowing data exchange over the Internet. solution. Aruba Instant supports multiple transport profiles that allow an AP to send the data to an external server (northbound data). In some cases, a transport profile can be used to allow an external server to send data requests to the AP (southbound data). In such cases, the AP sends the data requests from the external server to the devices. For additional information, see IoT.
