ARRIS has announced ARRIS Wireless Intelligence, an analytics and reporting tool that offers service providers comprehensive and real-time insights into their solutions for public Wi-Fi and expansion of Wi-Fi into new vertical markets.
Gathering and collating data from a range of inputs, the platform allows management, operations and marketing personnel to quickly visualize their deployed Wi-Fi network and understand the utilization of each access point and other network devices through a fully virtualized and hosted solution.
ARRIS Wireless Intelligence also offers analytics on a number of metrics including; access point utilization, OS type, subscriber data consumption and session duration. The solution generates pre-built reports that can be customized for different stakeholders within the service provider. The reports can be generated by a range of variables that span geography, SSID type, vertical market and individual property.
A cloud-based solution, ARRIS Wireless Intelligence offers fast and flexible integration and scaling with very low CAPEX outlay, said the company.
The solution is optimized as part of the ARRIS pre-integrated, best-of-breed Service Provider Wi-Fi solution. It is vendor-agnostic and compatible with other systems and features with an easy-to-integrate API.

Consumer demand for bandwidth is becoming both insatiable and ubiquitous, so the ability to provide a fast, seamless Wi-Fi experience outside of the home, throughout a service provider's community, is becoming the next big opportunity and challenge.
