Nokia WiFi Beacon 2

Wi-Fi 6 Beacon for the intelligent mesh network

The Nokia WiFi Beacon 2 extends the whole home Wi-Fi experience for broadband subscribers. This premium class Beacon supports Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi EasyMesh[tm], to create a whole home coverage mesh network backhauled by wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi. This coverage can be expanded at any time by installing additional Wi-Fi EasyMesh-capable beacons to ensure flawless roaming throughout the home. The Beacon 2 includes the Nokia WiFi Mesh Middleware which ensures the best possible Wi-Fi performance. The end-user experience with the intelligent self-organizing mesh system is enhanced by the service provider's Wi-Fi management capabilities in the cloud and intuitive home user support using the Nokia WiFi Mobile App.

The Nokia WiFi Beacon 2 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh system with Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) certified Wi-Fi EasyMesh, enhanced by Nokia value added features. The Nokia WiFi Mesh Middleware creates a self-healing, self-optimizing network. It includes intelligent channel selection, band steering, client steering and backhaul management to provide the best Wi-Fi performance. As it is EasyMesh[tm] compliant, it provides interoperability and avoids vendor lock-in. When no dedicated gateway is in the network, the Nokia WiFi Beacon 2 will take the role of wireless router with access to the broadband network.

The Nokia WiFi Beacon 2 is managed by the Nokia Corteca Home Controller. The Home Controller gives help desk agents a real-time holistic view of the in-home network to assist them with easy identification and instantaneous resolution of issues. For the network administrators, it provides an end-to-end Wi-Fi network view and allows management of groups of Wi-Fi networks.
