Smart Building Solutions
Trends such as IoT and Industry 4.0 are changing not only working methods and communication but also the places and buildings in which we work. The key concept is “smart building solutions”. Smart buildings are created by a highly-available, fail-safe network infrastructure. Network strategies are therefore crucial in the restructuring of companies if they are to fulfil increasing requirements and remain competitive.
Controlling buildings securely with smart networks
With Meraki, Cisco radically simplifies the establishment, management, monitoring and expansion of company networks – with a central, cloud-based dashboard and an integrated architecture.
