Highlights

Fortinet Universal Access Points are designed for a wide range of deployments, from branch offices to medium to large offices, schools, universities, hospitals, hotels and large retail shops. Universal access points can serve such a wide range of applications because they can be managed by any of Fortinet's control and management offerings: FortiGate, FortiWLC and FortiAP Cloud.

• Small/Medium Business
  Retailers can streamline in-store Wi-Fi deployment by combining Universal APs and FortiAP Cloud Management. Combined with FortiDeploy for zero-touch deployment, this provides a cost-effective solution for retail IT.
•  
• EducationThe education sector is at increasing risk from cyber-attacks. This, combined with the requirements to protect minors from inappropriate materials, can make the use of Wifi challenging. The integrated Secure Wireless Controller (FortiGate) ensures secure student access to learning resources, while FortiGuard services provide cybersecurity protection.

• Healthcare
  Patient safety is a top priority. Fortinet Universal APs enable hospitals to improve patient safety by enabling vital applications such as telemetry that require low bandwidth but exceptionally high reliability. The dedicated wireless controller (integrated Wifi controller of each FortiGate security appliance) connected to the universal access points keeps patient safety top of mind while providing improved performance for wireless-enabled medical devices.

The FortiWLC-VM optimises traffic across Fortinet's controller-based access points and clients to support high density and performance while meeting the mission-critical wireless connectivity needs of enterprises. The FortiWLC-VM optimises client distribution and channel utilisation in both single and multi-channel deployments, maximising efficiency to make the most of available wireless spectrum.

In single-channel technology, all access points operate on the same channel, enabling ubiquitous coverage and making clients appear to be a single access point no matter where they are located. In addition, the controller controls how and when clients roam, not the client itself.

When ARRP (Automatic Radio Resource Provisioning) is enabled, the controller continuously monitors the frequency environment for interference, noise and signals from neighbouring APs, allowing the FortiWLC-VM to determine the optimal frequency power levels for each AP in the network.
