Description

Address the complexities of overseeing IoT field area networks that encompass thousands or even millions of interconnected devices. The Cisco IoT Field Network Director (FND) serves as the comprehensive network management platform tailored for extensive FAN deployments. Factors such as environmental fluctuations and variations in cellular network coverage can significantly impact the connectivity and bandwidth of IoT gateways and devices. Cisco FND is specifically built to assist operations teams in navigating the lifecycle management of large-scale FANs, adapting to dynamic conditions and network limitations to maintain continuous functionality. It offers zero-touch deployment alongside secure enrollment for vast numbers of IoT gateways and endpoints. Additionally, it features role-based access controls, user audit trails, and secure communication methods for transporting IoT data via networks and VPN tunnels. Furthermore, it ensures dependable communication over both cellular and low-power networks for effective lifecycle management, alongside 24/7 real-time monitoring and alert systems. With automated enrollment and provisioning processes for gateways and endpoints, operational efficiency is greatly enhanced. This comprehensive suite of features positions Cisco FND as a vital tool in managing the evolving landscape of IoT networks.

Description

In many IoT solutions, the cloud serves merely as a final destination for data. However, with SkkyHub™, the cloud transforms into a dynamic conduit that facilitates real-time data streaming from any location to any desired endpoint. This innovative platform allows for seamless connections between operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT), enables machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, and establishes links among remote sites, all while maintaining minimal network latency measured in microseconds. Whether you need to monitor data from your devices or plants or send commands, updates, and configurations back to your system—SkkyHub™ supports both functionalities effortlessly. The DataHub gateway and endpoints equipped with ETK utilize the DHTP protocol to maintain a data-only connection, ensuring that no VPNs are necessary and keeping your OT and IT networks intact. By utilizing outbound DHTP connections, all inbound firewall ports remain secure and closed, eliminating any potential attack surfaces in your facility, devices, or office. With the ability to stream up to 100,000 data points in real time, you can gain a comprehensive overview of your operations. Additionally, with three distinct service levels—Basic, Standard, and Professional—you can select a service option that best suits your requirements and budget, enhancing the flexibility and scalability of your IoT solutions. This approach empowers organizations to harness the full potential of their data while ensuring robust security and operational efficiency.
