Nokia Wi-Fi Beacon 9

Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh Wi-Fi for the multi-gigabit home

entire home using the latest industry standards. The Beacon 9 uses Wi-Fi EasyMesh[tm] to create a Wi-Fi mesh backbone in the home and User Services Platform (USP/TR-369), TR-181 and Data Elements[tm] to provide remote visibility to CSPs for troubleshooting and Wi-Fi optimization. Coverage can be expanded by adding up to five additional Beacon 9's to the network using dynamic 6 GHz back-haul and/or wired Ethernet for seamless roaming throughout the home. The Beacon 9's advanced software ensures the best possible Wi-Fi performance. New, value-add services (like cybersecurity) can be installed on the Beacon 9 using Linux Containers for additional revenue generation. With Beacon 9, the subscriber gets an intelligent self-organizing mesh system that can be self-managed using the Nokia WiFi Mobile App.

The Nokia WiFi Beacon 9 is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh system with Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) compliant Wi-Fi EasyMesh, enhanced by Nokia value added features. The Nokia WiFi Beacon 9 will take the role of wireless router with access to the broadband network and

the wireless mesh network can be extended further with additional Beacon 9 units. Nokia Corteca Device Software 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. Through Data Elements, the most important performance indicators of the Wi-Fi network are reported for troubleshooting and Wi-Fi optimization.

Optionally, the Nokia WiFi Beacon 9 can be managed by the Nokia Corteca Home Controller through the Broadband Forum's User Services Platform (USP/TR-369).

The associated Console presents the help desk agents with a holistic view of the in-home network to assist them with easy identification and instantaneous resolution of issues as well as offering recommendations for operator upsell opportunities. The Console also improves network operations with Wi-Fi optimization and monitoring through high granularity of radio resource management (RRM) algorithms and reporting.

The Nokia WiFi Mobile App provides home users with an intuitive and simplified interface for trouble-free management of their home network and Wi-Fi. It also provides advanced functions such as guest Wi-Fi management and parental controls.

CSPs can offer new, value-add services to their customers, leveraging Nokia's ecosystem of app developers. The Beacon 9 supports the latest, fully integrated cybersecurity application from F-Secure which is delivered as a containerized application.
