The Nokia WiFi Beacon 3.1 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 seamless roaming throughout the home. The Beacon 3.1 includes the Nokia Corteca Device Software which ensures the best possible Wi-Fi performance. New value-add services (like cybersecurity) can be installed on the Beacon 3.1 using Linux Containers for additional revenue generation. 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 3.1 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 3.1 will take the role of wireless router with access to the broadband network.
Optionally, the Nokia WiFi Beacon 3.1 can be managed by the Nokia Corteca Home Controller through the Broadband Forum's User Services Platform (USP/TR-369). The Home Controller is a multi-vendor USP Controller. The associated Console presents 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 a high granularity of radio resource management (RRM) algorithms and reporting.
The Nokia WiFi Mobile App provides end-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.
