Juniper AP33 Access Point
802.11ax Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth LE and IoT Integrates Mist AI for AX

High Performance Wi-Fi

The AP33 is a six-stream access point. It supports 4x4:4SS in the 5GHz band, delivering a maximum data rate of 2,400 Mbps for high-bandwidth applications. It also supports 2x2:2SS in the 2.4GHz band, delivering a maximum data rate of 575 Mbps. The integrated third radio functions as a network, location, and security sensor, a synthetic test client radio, as well as a spectrum monitor.

AI for AX

With the new features that 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) introduces to boost performance and efficiency, configuring and operating an access point has grown far more complex. Juniper automates and optimizes these features with our AI for AX capabilities to improve data transmission scheduling within OFDMA and MUMIMO and assign clients to the best radio to boost the overall performance of the network.

Greater Spectral Efficiency

OFDMA improves spectral efficiency so that an increasing density of devices can be supported on the network. Density has become an issue with the rapid growth of IoT devices, which often utilize smaller data packets than mobile devices and hence increase contention on the network. Additionally, BSS Coloring improves the coexistence of overlapping BSSs and allows spatial reuse within a given channel by reducing packet collisions.

Automatic RF optimization

Radio Resource Management automates dynamic channel and power assignment, taking Wi-Fi and external sources of interference into account with its dedicated sensor radio. The AI engine continuously monitors coverage and capacity SLE metrics to learn and optimize the RF environment. The learning algorithm uses hysteresis on a 24-hour window to conduct a sitewide rebalancing for optimal channel and power assignment.

Unprecedented Insight and Action

A dedicated, dual-band third radio collects data for Juniper’s patent-pending Proactive Analytics and Correlation Engine (PACE), which uses machine learning to analyze user experience, correlate problems, and automatically detect their root cause. These metrics are used to monitor SLEs and provide proactive recommendations to ensure problems don’t occur (or are fixed as quickly as possible when they do). This radio also functions as a synthetic test client to proactively detect and mitigate network anomalies.

Improved IoT Battery Efficiency

The Juniper Mist platform automatically captures packets and streams them to the cloud when major issues are detected. This saves IT time and effort and eliminates the need for truck rolls with sniffers to reproduce and capture data for troubleshooting.

Dynamic Debugging

Constantly monitor services running on the AP33 Series and send alerts whenever a service behaves abnormally. Dynamic debugging relieves IT of having to worry about an AP going offline or any services running on it becoming unavailable.

Dynamic Packet Capture

The Juniper Mist platform automatically captures packets and streams them to the cloud when major issues are detected. This saves IT time and effort and eliminates the need for truck rolls with sniffers to reproduce and capture data for troubleshooting.

Marvis Virtual Conversational Assistant

Marvis is a natural language processing (NLP)-based assistant with a Conversational Interface to understand user intent and goals, simplifying troubleshooting and the collection of network insights. It uses AI and data science to proactively identify issues, determine the root causes and scope of impact, and gain insights into your network and user experiences. It eliminates the need to manually hunt through endless dashboards and CLI commands.

Effortless, Cloud-Based Setup and Updates

The AP33 automatically connects to the Juniper Mist cloud, downloads its configuration, and joins the appropriate network. Firmware updates are retrieved and installed automatically, ensuring that the network is always up to date with new features, bug fixes, and security updates.

Premium Analytics

Juniper Mist Wi-Fi Assurance, User Engagement and Asset Tracking services include a base analytics capability for analyzing up to 30 days of data, which enables you to simplify the process of extracting network insights across your enterprise. If you require dynamic insights like motion paths* and other thirdparty* data and would like the option of customized reports, the Juniper Mist Premium Analytics service is available as an additional subscription.

High-Accuracy Indoor Location

The AP33 has a 16-element vBLE antenna array controlled from the Juniper Mist cloud. Passive antennas enhance the power of a single transmitter and produce directional beams (or can be combined to act as an omnidirectional radio) to accurately detect distance and location with one- to three-meter accuracy. With Juniper’s patented vBLE technology, you can deploy an unlimited number of virtual beacons in your physical environment with no battery-powered BLE beacons required. With support for Bluetooth 5.0, the access point boosts IoT device signal range and battery life.

Patented VBLE Technology

In addition to the industry-leading Wi-Fi technology at the heart of the AP33 access point, our second-generation, patented, and dynamic, 16-element virtual Bluetooth LE (vBLE) antenna array combines with machine learning to eliminate the need for battery-powered beacons. This maximizes scalability and optimizes your deployment investment in location-based services. vBLE enables businesses to provide rich location-based experiences that are engaging, accurate, real-time, and scalable.
