New Fortiswitch Solutions Are Game Changers For Today's Evolving Campus
Fortinet News, Monday, October 9,2023
Users, devices, and business applications require increasing bandwidth to perform essential tasks. At the same time, IDC projects there will be 55.7 billion connected IoT devices by 2025.
As the number of wireless devices deployed inside organizations-from laptops and smartphones to printers and other connected IoT devices-continues to grow, organizations are racing to address the escalating demand for secure, high-speed access to the network. And they are doing this by deploying growing numbers of next-generation wireless access points (APs) capable of delivering 5G speeds at scale.
The challenge is that the underlying legacy switching infrastructure that needs to support these new APs is struggling to keep up. To ensure network availability to all these resources while maintaining an optimized user experience, organizations need to upgrade their infrastructure with high-performance switches designed to intelligently organize AP traffic and scale throughput to prevent bottlenecks that can impact network performance.
